Swansea, City and County of Swansea, United Kingdom Swansea University Full time

About The Role

This is a Permanent full-time position.

The Clinical Skills technical team is seeking to recruit an organised and motivated person with excellent customer service skills to support teaching and examination setups for a variety of healthcare programs in the Faculty of Medicine, Health and Life Science.

The Agile Teaching Technician (Clinical) is responsible for preparing for and setting up classrooms with appropriate clinical equipment and consumables, ensuring academic colleagues are equipped to deliver high quality teaching. Responsibilities also include ordering stock, managing storerooms, carrying out routine and reactive maintenance to equipment, and working collaboratively with academic and professional services colleagues.

A background in a Higher Education, clinical, or simulation environment is desirable but not essential as full training will be provided. We are seeking someone with proven interpersonal skills, good manual dexterity for moving equipment between rooms and buildings, and the drive to learn and develop skills in a diverse and dynamic role. Swansea University offers a range of courses for your professional development in addition to role-specific training opportunities.

It is desired that the candidate will occasionally work in the Anatomy facility within the Medical School, working with human tissue specimens under supervision and in accordance with the Human Tissue Act 2004, including pathology slides, prosected limbs, and whole cadavers. Whilst the post is predominantly based onsite at Singleton campus, there is the requirement to occasionally assist in delivering technical support at our campus in St. David's Park, Carmarthen. The ability to drive the departmental van is therefore desirable. The team's core hours are 8am to 4pm but there's an expectation to work flexibly to support teaching where required. Enquiries around flexible working are welcome.

Due to the nature of the role, an informal visit prior to interview is highly recommended. Enquiries very welcome to Katarina Kusz, please email

The Welsh language level required for this role is Level 1 - A little. The role holder will be able to pronounce Welsh words, answer the phone in Welsh (good morning/afternoon) and use very basic everyday words and phrases (thank you, please etc.). Level 1 can be reached by completing a 1 hour course.

The University is a proud bilingual institution, our Welsh Language Strategy outlines our aspiration to promote the language and enable our staff to engage with the language as an additional workplace skill and as a gateway to new cultural and social opportunities. Applications are welcome in Welsh and will not be treated less favourably than those submitted in English. Welsh speakers have the right to an interview in Welsh. Applicants for a role where Welsh skills are essential are expected to present their application in Welsh and will be interviewed in Welsh, if shortlisted.
