Technical Demonstrator (SFX)

Part Time (22.5 hours per week) - Temporary Contract Contract ( until June 2027) - High Wycombe

Salary - £17.65 per hour pro rata

We’re not trying to fit in with the higher education status quo. We’re challenging it. We’re doing things differently – because our students, our staff, and our world need us to.

So this is an exciting moment to join us. We’re boldly reimagining what a university can be: a place rooted in social mobility, a community where difference is celebrated, and an institution that empowers people to become more than they thought possible.

We have an exciting opportunity for a SFX Technical Demonstrator to join our Technical and Simulation Resources team until June 2027. The purpose of the role is to provide theoretical and practical support to students in SFX including both casting and moulding using silicone and fibreglass while providing additional support to the wider technical team.

The role will be varied and will include having responsibility for Health and Safety, Maintenance and consumable stock control. There will be some autonomy in making decisions which support the student experience as well as a variety of other tasks which are detailed in the job description.

You must have excellent practical knowledge in prosthetics, mould making and special effects techniques, be organised, have a keen eye for detail and be comfortable dealing with a variety of personality types in a changing environment with strict deadlines as well as managing and supporting team members.

We ensure that our interview/shortlisting Chairs complete the relevant e-learning and/or inclusive recruitment training.

If you’re considering using AI to support your application, we encourage you to question the value it adds. The use of AI tools sometimes erodes authenticity and prevents us from being able to assess the real you. We strongly recommend you prepare your application using your own skills and knowledge and that AI is only used for the purpose of review.

Interview Date: TBC

The successful applicant will be required to give consent to check their criminal record status through the DBS. Information will be kept in strict confidence. Your offer of appointment will be subject to the University being satisfied with the outcome of this check.
