James Gillespie’s High School is in the Marchmont area of Edinburgh. A fully co-ed comprehensive since the 1970s, we are also home to Edinburgh’s Ard-Sgoil (Gaelic Secondary).
James Gillespie’s 18th century vision for inclusion and high-quality education endures and continues in the new school campus which was completed in August 2016, and continues in our school values today- Respect, Kindness, Integrity, Inclusion and High Expectation.
We are looking to recruit a Science Technician to support the teaching staff in the Science Department in our main Campus on Lauderdale Street and in our Darroch Campus on Gillespie Street. Please see attached job description and person specification for further details.
This post is regulated work with children and/or protected adults under the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act 2007. The preferred candidate will be required to join the PVG Scheme or undergo a PVG Scheme update check. Where an individual has spent a continuous period of 3 months or more out with the UK in the last 5 years, an Overseas Criminal Record Check will be required.

We're committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits that a diverse workforce with different values, beliefs, experience, and backgrounds brings to us as an organisation.
To help achieve this, we’re changing the way we interview and assess candidates by moving from a competency-based interview approach to a behavioural and technical (skills for the job) based approach. This new way of interviewing will allow us to assess how you think and how you would bring our Behaviours of Respect, Integrity and Flexibility into your ways of working.
Our salary range typically reflects the initial starting salary and annually increases until it reaches the top of the range.
Happy to talk flexible working.
