Design and Technology Technician

Diversity: Scholars' Education Trust is fully committed to the principles of equal opportunity, diversity and inclusion. We want to attract and retain the very best staff in all areas of the Trust, ensuring our staff body reflects the diversity of our students and local community.

We are seeking an enthusiastic and highly motivated individual to support our friendly Design and Technology Team as a Technician.

This is a great opportunity for those wishing to embark upon a Technician career within a school where D&T is the heart of STEM. The successful candidate will have experience of working within a workshop environment, understands the Health and Safety importance, maintaining and servicing machinery and will have CAD CAM (Laser Cutter and 3D printer) skills, where necessary training will be given. Experience of working within an educational context would be advantageous but training will be given.

Applications are welcome from candidates with previous experience or alternatively, someone who is practical, organised and has the ability to work with minimum supervision once directed.

Longdean School is a good school (Ofsted 2025). We strive for excellence by teaching and preparing our young people to have confidence, to accept and respond to challenges, to have an enduring passion for learning and to become independent thinkers with respect for themselves and others.

The School is part of Scholars' Education Trust (SET), an established, cross phase, multi-academy trust formed in 2012. SET has enjoyed measured growth, ensuring maximum educational impact alongside school, a primary school, an extended secondary, two secondary schools and an all-through school.
