Jane Austen College

Jane Austen College is looking for an enthusiastic, organised, and reliable science technician with excellent communication and interpersonal skills. If you are enthusiastic about science and enjoy inspiring others, this is a great opportunity to use your experience and develop your skills within a friendly team.  

As well as providing general laboratory support to the science department, you will assist in practical science lessons and must therefore be able to relate well to both staff and students. You will be well-organised and a team player with the ability to work independently, taking responsibility for managing routine safety and maintenance checks. The role involves working with a wide range of equipment, materials, and resources so a good knowledge of health and safety and CLEAPSS is desirable.

Relevant experience within a secondary school setting is desirable although appropriate training will be provided. If you think that you have the skills and attributes for this exciting role we would be pleased to hear from you. 

Jane Austen College is an 11-19 secondary school in the heart of Norwich. In our first set of GCSE results 75% of students achieved a Grade 4+ in English and Maths, and our A-level results have been the top of all state sixth forms in Norwich for the third year in a row. We are an English & Humanities Specialist school.

As part of the Inspiration Trust, we offer high-quality, personalised professional development, in addition to excellent career development opportunities. 

We are committed to offering excellent professional opportunities and learning opportunities for our staff, through careful support and personalised CPD. We offer a structured and specific induction programme.
