Job Introduction

Exciting Opportunity to Join Our Design & Technology Team! 

Are you a hands-on, creative individual who loves working with materials and machinery? Do you have a knack for organization and a passion for supporting young learners? Cranbourne is looking for an enthusiastic and skilled Design & Technology Technician to join our friendly, hardworking team!

About Us
Cranbourne is a welcoming, inclusive, and forward-thinking school, where dedicated staff and a diverse student body create a vibrant community. With our increasing popularity, we are expanding and on the threshold of "Outstanding." Our ethos is built on collaboration, innovation, and supporting each other to maintain a positive work-life balance.

The Role

You’ll be essential to the smooth running of our Design & Technology department, supporting four talented teachers in preparing materials and equipment for engaging, hands-on lessons. You’ll work with a range of materials—especially wood, acrylic, and metal—and operate various machines, including table saws and pillar drills. Your role will also involve providing valuable support to both teachers and students within lessons, helping to bring projects to life!

While knowledge of construction would be a plus, more importantly, we’re looking for someone who:

• Has excellent organisational and communication skills
• Is confident and experienced with a range of tools and materials
• Can work effectively both independently and as part of a team
• Has a positive, proactive attitude toward helping others succeed

At Cranbourne, Care for students and staff is at the heart of all we do. We thrive on Challenge, inspiring students to achieve their full potential. We foster Creativity in our teaching and encourage students to think beyond the classroom. And, above all, we celebrate our Community, ensuring every member feels valued and supported.

We will ensure that all our recruitment and selection practices reflect this commitment. All successful candidates will be subject to Disclosure and Barring Service checks along with other relevant employment checks.
