We have several permanent, part-time positions available, with working patterns agreed around campus requirements and your availability. You'll work up to four shifts per week, covering a mix of daytime, evening and weekend shifts, with the rota confirmed at the start of each study block so you know your working pattern in advance.

We also offer term-time-only positions, giving you your summers free. This makes the role particularly well suited to professionals who tour, work festivals, take on freelance projects or want to focus on their own music and creative practice during the summer. It could also be a great fit for recent graduates in music technology, engineering or performance looking for reliable work alongside their own practice and career development.

And importantly, we're not looking for one person who can do everything. We welcome applications from people with a range of technical specialisms, whether your background is in live sound, studio engineering and production, AV, instrument maintenance, recording or music technology. We're interested in what you do well and the experience you can bring to our students and technical team.

Don’t wait to apply! We may begin interviewing before the closing date and reserve the right to close the advert early if we receive a strong field of suitable applications.
