Bath, United Kingdom University of Bath Full time

About the role

We are seeking a Specialist Technician to join the Department of Architecture & Civil Engineering.

This role involves working as part of a team of technicians providing a technical service to both teaching and research activity within the department.

You will provide technical support for preparation and testing of geotechnical and innovative construction materials. Specifically, this will involve testing the physical and chemical properties of soils, earth construction materials, cementous materials (such as cement or lime stabilised materials) and other innovative construction materials.

The technical support involves maintenance and booking/scheduling of laboratory space and equipment, as well as providing specialist advice and practical support to those using the laboratories. You will contribute to the successful delivery of teaching including prepping the laboratories for practical classes and supervising use of equipment. 

About you

Our ideal candidate will:

  • Have experience in a relevant role in a lab based environment
  • Be able to confidently and proactively engage users across all levels including undergraduate, postgraduate and research staff
  • Have sufficient experience in advising on best health and safety practice in the laboratory including review of risk assessments, COSHH forms and the safe use and storage of chemicals

You will receive training on the specific equipment in our laboratories and on the specific processes in our laboratories and around the University.

Experience in testing the engineering properties of soils in a laboratory environment and potentially testing other construction materials in a laboratory or field environment would be a bonus but is not essential.
