We have an excellent opportunity for an IT professional to join our thriving IT Team at GLF Schools.
Your Opportunity
We are looking to recruit a Senior IT Technician to help support our schools in the Didcot area. The successful candidate will benefit from the support of our experienced IT teams located throughout Surrey and Oxfordshire and will build links with the Trust IT team and the Service Delivery Manager and Head of Operations.
The candidate will provide first and second-line support, working with a range of systems and users with varying skills, and will need to find solutions to issues affecting all aspects of IT. The candidate will assist the school in adopting new technologies and ensuring that IT services deliver benefits to teaching and learning. This is a site-based role at Aureus School; on occasion, the candidate may be required to visit other GLF schools in the Didcot region. The candidate will also be required to attend IT team training events held at the GLF Trust offices (Earlsfield, Banstead) at scheduled dates.
A full UK driving license is beneficial, but not a requirement if the candidate can demonstrate that they have the means to meet the travel requirements for the role.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
