We are seeking a creative, organised and proactive Art Technician to support our vibrant Art Department. This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in enhancing students’ learning experiences through the preparation and maintenance of materials, equipment and resources.
The successful candidate will be responsible for preparing and setting up materials for practical art lessons, and ensuring that all equipment and workspaces are maintained in a safe, clean and organised condition. You will also assist with stock control, ordering supplies, preparing displays of students’ work, and supporting departmental administration.
