IT Technician

The Department of Genetics, University of Cambridge, is a thriving, friendly and dynamic community of staff and students, dedicated to the pursuit of world-class research, teaching and learning, and driven by curiosity, quality, collaboration and innovation. It is a wonderfully rich and rewarding environment in which to grow, both personally and professionally.

We wish to recruit an enthusiastic and self-motivated IT Technician who can assist with the provision of IT support for all teaching, research and administration activities within the department. The role will be split 50/50 between the main Department of Genetics and the Bioinformatics Training Facility (BTF), which sits within the Department of Genetics. This will be a hands-on role providing the first line of support and therefore requires good communication and relationship-building skills.

The role will be well supported by the IT Managers in the department and BTF, by the School of Biological Sciences Head of IT, and by colleagues in similar roles in other university departments. A wide range of training and professional career development opportunities are also available. If you have the technical skills to help with the delivery of a resilient IT service for the department, and the personality and drive to contribute to an outstanding support culture, please do apply - we'll be delighted to hear from you.

This role is based within the Department of Genetics, and full-time, on-site presence is expected.
