IT & Facilities Assistant

About us

LAE Tottenham seeks to appoint an IT & Facilities Assistant to provide assistance across the IT and Facilities functions in order to support the smooth running of the school.

LAE Tottenham is a selective 16-19 free school, which offers a rigorous academic curriculum alongside a broad co-curricular programme and exceptional pastoral support enabling students to access high tariff universities. In 2020-21, nearly 75% of students won places at Russell Group universities, from a cohort in which 51% of students had been eligible for free school meals at secondary school.

The successful applicant will need demonstrable experience within the field of IT maintenance ideally within an education setting. Training will be provided in areas where the successful candidate feels less confident and there will be the opportunity to take on more responsibility in areas where they already feel comfortable.

The role is advertised on a full time basis, based on school term times with four additional working weeks (currently 41 weeks per year).
