St Paul’s Girls’ School is seeking an enthusiastic Art Technician to support the Director of Art & Design and the team of Art & Design teachers with the day-to-day operation, maintenance and health & safety of the School’s studios. This particular post will be based in the art studios rather than the workshop.  The postholder will work closely with the other technician with a particular focus on the darkroom, digital studio, painting studio and ceramics studio. Some familiarity with Adobe Creative Cloud software would be helpful but is not essential.

The successful candidate will enjoy working as part of a team and in a school community and should be capable of working with the minimum of supervision. The role is varied and we recognise that no candidate is likely to have experience in the full range of technical tasks it involves. The role will be the same two days each week, likely to be Wednesday and Thursday.

The position comes with a benefits package of contributory pension scheme, free lunches, tea and coffee and use of school sports facilities during allocated staff times.

St Paul’s Girls’ School is one of the country’s leading independent schools for girls aged 11-18, with approximately 780 students. It is an extraordinary school, offering a classical yet forward-thinking education, located in Brook Green, London, and easily accessed by public transport (zone 2).
