The successful candidate will be motivated and well-qualified to support the provision of experimental work in our successful Chemistry Department. This is an exciting opportunity to work in a busy and thriving department with well-equipped laboratories.

You will express a passion and enthusiasm for the subject, channelling this in your commitment to the vibrant extracurricular life of the school, assisting with our Science Club.
