From September 2025
We are looking for a Technician to provide a safe, effective and efficient technician service for students and staff in our engineering area.
The Engineering Department at UTCN is extremely well resourced: we have fully equipped workshops containing manual lathes/milling machines, 3D printers, laser cutters, Hass CNC machines, welding equipment, virtual welders and an F1 in Schools test track, to list but a small selection. Engineering is the main reason why students come to UTCN and all KS4 students and most KS5 students study engineering. The Engineering Department currently has 7 teaching staff, 1 teaching assistant and 1 technician.
UTCN exists to develop the next generation of engineers and with a fabulous £10m building, £1.3m of specialist equipment, that’s exactly what we have achieved! We have been open seven years and we are one of the top performing UTCs in the country. We have a specialism in engineering, but we also cater for 14-19 age students with interests in Science, Computing and Mathematics. UTCN was graded ‘Good’, by OFSTED, across all areas in May 2019. We have approximately 400 students on roll.
The core hours of work will be from 8.15am to 4.15pm (3.45pm on a Friday) with 30-minutes unpaid for lunch: this totals 37 hours per week. There may be some scope to vary these hours slightly.
If you are:
Familiar with an engineering environment
Educated to Level 3 (A Level, NVQ III) or above with high standards of literacy and numeracy
Organised, a team player and optimistic
Proficient in IT
Willing to work hard
Determined to ensure that UTCN is the top provider of its type in the country
Then please apply by visiting our school website.
