Technician

Lancaster Girls’ Grammar School is recruiting a Technician to support our Physical Education, Performing Arts and Library departments.  

Lancaster Girls’ Grammar School is a forward looking, selective state school with academy status and an outstanding record of promoting academic excellence. Our curriculum is broad and we provide a wide range of enrichment and wellbeing opportunities, and we are proud of our inclusive community. There are currently just over 1,000 students on roll across years 7 to 13. The admission policy prioritises girls from the Lancaster District, but students do travel to us from across Lancashire and Cumbria.

• Experience working in a technical support role, or undertaking similar responsibilities. 
• A commitment to raising achievement and the quality of learning for all students.  
• The ability to relate well to children and young people. 
• The ability to work in an organised and methodical way. 
• The ability to work independently to complete assigned tasks efficiently. 

We are looking for candidates who will: 

• Complement our team with their enthusiastic and positive attitude. 
• Be able to multitask and prioritise workload effectively. 
• Be innovative and use initiative. 
• Have drive and enthusiasm. 
• Have a sense of humour, caring nature and build strong relationships with everyone. 
• Thrive in a busy school environment. 

The postholder will primarily provide general technical assistance through the preparation and day-to-day maintenance of teaching areas and equipment for pupils, and others tasks at a similar level. Full details of the Person Specification and Job Description for the role are provided in our Role Profile.  

This is a part-time, term time only, fixed-term (potential to be made permanent) role: details of the contractual terms and salary are included in the Role Profile. LGGS also offers a competitive benefits package which is detailed in our Recruitment Information Pack.
