IT Technician
IT Technician
Permanent; Full time; 37.5 hours per week
Closing date: 23 January 2026 at 12 noon
Haileybury are currently seeking a dedicated IT Technician, with an events focus, to join our supportive and dynamic team.
Role
This is an exciting, hands-on role at the heart of the School’s busy events programme. You will play a key part in delivering high-quality AV and technical support for a wide range of school events and meetings, while also providing first-line IT support to pupils and staff.
The position would particularly suit someone with technical aptitude who enjoys being “on the ground” making things work – from live sound and projection through to helping pupils and teachers with their devices.
As part of the IT Helpdesk, you will be a friendly and approachable presence, helping to ensure that the School’s technology and events run smoothly and to a high standard.
You will benefit from professional development, including training on our AV systems, IT platforms and processes. There is the opportunity to learn from experienced colleagues within a friendly, collaborative IT Department with a strong service ethos.
Haileybury has a progressive outlook on both events and IT, offering an excellent opportunity to build experience in a forward-thinking educational setting. Previous experience in a similar role is welcome but not essential; above all, we value a positive attitude, reliability and a genuine willingness to learn and develop.
This is a permanent, full-time position working 37.5 hours per week, Monday to Friday, with occasional weekend work required to support the School’s operational needs.
Please see the candidate brief for further information.
