Hall Grove School is seeking a reliable, enthusiastic, and motivated Science Technician to join our growing team in the newly-established senior school. Ideally, the successful candidate will be available to start work in the summer term 2026, but a September 2026 start will be considered.
This is an exciting opportunity to help shape a modern Science department as we prepare for our first cohort of GCSE students sitting GCSEs in May 2028. The successful candidate will play a key role in supporting high-quality science teaching across Years 5–11 in purpose-built laboratories and preparation rooms. While the majority of time will be spent supporting Key Stage 3 and 4, we have a large and thriving prep-school covered by the same science team. They will join an ambitious and enthusiastic Science department who seek to ensure that the pupils are exposed to as much practical work as possible.
An experienced technician with a background in biochemistry or chemistry, and a history of supporting science in schools would be preferred. However, a well-motivated and organised professional with a science background willing to develop the expertise needed would be considered.
This is a part-time role and will be paid on an hourly basis (£25/hour). The work will take place across 5 days of the school week, likely to be a minimum of 4 hours per day across 5 days up to a maximum 6 hours per day across 5 days. As far as possible and subject to timetabling requirements, flexibility with timings can be offered. This is a term-time only role (term dates are published on the school website).
