Our technical staff are essential to supporting teaching, research, and the smooth operation of our facilities. Whether you’re maintaining cutting-edge lab equipment, facilitating ground-breaking research, developing new techniques, or enhancing student and staff experience with top-notch facilities, your work will have a lasting impact that stretches far beyond our academic community.

You will work both in a team and independently to organise and prioritise daily/weekly workload and will contribute to teaching veterinary students in some aspects of Radiation Oncology.
This post is full-time (35 hours per week, working five days Monday to Friday). The salary for this post is £41,064 to £48,822 per annum.
