The opportunity

This new role provides an exciting opportunity to work in the education sector delivering industry-focused skills and knowledge. The role will provide specialist technical support for the Sound Arts department. Working within the college technical team and alongside academics, the role will be instrumental in developing and improving our students’ ability to successfully understand and challenge the world around us.

This is a unique role designed to support technical resources aligned to the new School of Screen. Working as part of our Broadcast Technology team, this role will help courses to develop and improve upon the sound studio-based skills of our students. The role will include improving and maintaining technical resources, issuing equipment, leading student inductions, workshops, and assisting students in the use of highly specialist technical processes.

About you

You will have experience working in the sound industry or in higher education, preferably within a sound department or post-production studio facility. You will have a strong technical knowledge of sound technology, audio engineering, acoustics, location and music recording.

Good communication skills are necessary to the role, as you will need to demonstrate patience and sensitivity when working with students and academic staff. You will also support students in developing their creative audio technology skills. You must be a strong team player –  task-oriented, with excellent organisation and planning skills.

Above all we are looking for a motivated, creative individual who can bring skills to compliment a growing and increasingly important team at the College. We would expect high levels of technical competence and a dedication to technological development.
