An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Senior Network Support Technician to join our busy and well-respected IT department here at TWGSB. Come and join an IT service that is dedicated to empowering people through technology!

The predominant purpose of this role is to support the use of IT within the school environment through maintenance of software, hardware and related equipment, and to provide support to staff and students to ensure administration and learning outcomes are maximised.

Specifically within the department, the Senior Network Technician will support the Network Manager in running the IT infrastructure and systems across both campuses.

Here we all share the same vision: ‘To be the best selective boys’ school in West Kent’ and our journey towards achieving this continues to be an exciting one.

We can offer you the opportunity to work with highly able young people in a supportive, well-equipped and forward-thinking school. We offer a friendly and inclusive working environment and the chance to be part of a fantastic multidisciplinary team, who work hard and support each other to deliver personalised, bespoke education and care.
