Ladybridge High School is a happy and successful school with a clear mission and agreed beliefs that are shared as a school community. We are focused on enabling our learners to achieve excellent academic progress whilst developing personal qualities that enable them to thrive in the future. A film about our distinctive ethos and approach can be seen through this link.

The wonderfully diverse population of learners, the emphasis on professional learning for staff and the friendly atmosphere make Ladybridge an interesting and enjoyable place to work.

We strongly believe in allowing our staff to carry out their role to a high standard, whilst having a genuine work life balance which is why our full time technicians have the option of a compressed working pattern which offers a ‘flexi afternoon’ once a fortnight, where they are free to leave school site at lunchtime which is an option available for this post.

We will also consider part-time and job share options.

We are seeking to appoint two suitably skilled Science Technicians to co-ordinate the use of practical resources and provide technical assistance to the Science Department. We are looking for exceptional candidates with:

• A practical knowledge of the use of equipment, chemicals and science resources
• Experience of working within a science-related environment or with a background in science
• Experience of working with children or young people
• Strong interpersonal skills with a friendly helpful manner
• The ability to work well under pressure and meet deadlines
• Excellent verbal and written communication

Previous experience in a similar post would be an advantage but is not essential as full training will be provided for the right candidate.
