Are you passionate about making, fabrication, and creative problem-solving? Do you enjoy sharing your technical expertise and supporting others to develop their skills? If so, we would love to hear from you.
London College of Communication (LCC), part of the University of the Arts London, is seeking a Specialist Technician to join our innovative and collaborative 3D Workshop team.
About the Role
The 3D Workshop is a vibrant creative space where students develop ideas through object making, sculpture, set and prop construction, interactive environments, and site-specific installations. The workshop gives students access to a diverse range of equipment and technologies, including woodworking machinery, power tools, laser engravers, vinyl cutters, digital embroidery, 3D printing (filament, resin, and full colour), large-format CNC machining, mould-making facilities, and a dedicated ceramics area featuring a 3D clay extruder.
As a Specialist Technician, you will play a key role in supporting students to develop confidence, practical skills, and technical understanding throughout their creative journey. Drawing on your specialist knowledge, you will provide technical instruction, demonstrations, and one-to-one guidance, helping students safely and effectively use workshop facilities while encouraging experimentation and innovation.
