Technical and Experimental in Bath, Somerset

Diverse and collaborative place to work
Great development opportunities with a wide range of trainings available to staff. Beautiful campus and good working environment.

The staff are great, it’s the managers that let it down
The University itself is a great place to work and there are some great rewards in place. Unfortunately in this department there were no rewards for hard work or initiative, which was basically down to bad management. It is such a shame because it could be such a great place to work but until these managers are replaced, it won’t change.
