This is a varied and rewarding opportunity to contribute directly to the quality of education and wider enrichment experiences available to our students. The successful candidate will work collaboratively with curriculum leaders and teaching colleagues to ensure that practical lessons, creative activities, rehearsals and performances are effectively resourced, prepared and supported.

The role encompasses the preparation and organisation of teaching materials, equipment and resources; the maintenance of safe, well-organised learning environments; and the effective management of departmental stock, supplies and equipment. The postholder will also provide practical and technical assistance during lessons and contribute to the preparation and delivery of performances, productions and other curriculum-related events.

A key aspect of the position is ensuring that appropriate health and safety procedures are consistently maintained, including the safe use, storage, checking and maintenance of specialist equipment and materials. The successful candidate will also undertake associated administrative duties, including ordering resources, maintaining records and supporting the efficient day-to-day operation of the departments.
