About the Role
About the Role
The School of Engineering and Materials Science (SEMS) is seeking an Engineering Teaching Laboratory Technician to support the day-to-day operation, maintenance and continuous improvement of our designated teaching laboratory facilities. Working collaboratively with academic, technical and professional services colleagues, you will provide specialist technical expertise to support high-quality laboratory teaching, student projects and practical learning activities across a broad range of engineering disciplines, including Aerospace, Biomedical, Chemical, Mechanical, Robotics and Sustainable Energy Engineering. You will install, calibrate and maintain laboratory equipment and instrumentation, prepare materials and resources for practical teaching sessions, and provide technical guidance and training to staff and students. You will also help maintain a safe, efficient and well-organised laboratory environment, ensuring compliance with health and safety requirements.
About You
You will hold a Bachelor's degree in a relevant Engineering field, or have extensive work experience in a related laboratory technician role, together with relevant experience of laboratory-based teaching in higher or further education. You will have experience of health and safety procedures in teaching and a working understanding of concepts in one or more engineering fields (e.g. mechanical, bio, chemical, materials, robotics or aerospace). You will be self-motivated, with a willingness to learn new skills and experimental techniques, and confident using standard computing software such as Outlook, Excel and Word. Experience of working with electrical circuits and software interfaces (e.g. LabVIEW, Arduino), mechanical testing procedures, or a relevant professional membership (e.g. RSciTech) would be desirable.
About the School
The School of Engineering and Materials Science (SEMS) is a large, research-intensive School within the Faculty of Science and Engineering, comprising over 110 academic staff and a vibrant community of approximately 2,700 undergraduate and taught postgraduate students, alongside more than 250 PhD researchers. SEMS is part of Queen Mary University of London, recognised for delivering world-class education. Following a recent education review, the School is further strengthening its undergraduate and postgraduate provision, with a strong emphasis on skills development, professional practice, and the education of future professional engineers.
About Queen Mary
At Queen Mary University of London, we believe that a diversity of ideas helps us achieve the previously unthinkable.
Throughout our history, we've fostered social justice and improved lives through academic excellence. And we continue to live and breathe this spirit today, not because it's simply 'the right thing to do' but for what it helps us achieve and the intellectual brilliance it delivers.
We continue to embrace diversity of thought and opinion in everything we do, in the belief that when views collide, disciplines interact, and perspectives intersect, truly original thought takes form.
Benefits
We offer competitive salaries, access to a generous pension scheme, 30 days' leave per annum (pro-rata for part-time/fixed-term), a season ticket loan scheme and access to a comprehensive range of personal and professional development opportunities. In addition, we offer a range of work life balance and family friendly, inclusive employment policies, flexible working arrangements, and campus facilities.
Queen Mary's commitment to our diverse and inclusive community is embedded in our appointments processes. Reasonable adjustments will be made at each stage of the recruitment process for any candidate with a disability. We are open to considering applications from candidates wishing to work flexibly.
