About the business
Sydney Montessori School is a specialist independent school located in the Sutherland Shire, in a wonderful spacious setting close to Gymea station. The school has been operating since 1981, and prides itself on offering an excellent Montessori education from birth to age 12. With increasing enrolments, the school opened a High School component in 2021 commencing with years 7 & 8. The first intakes are capped with very low numbers which the school will grow over subsequent years. Year 11 students will commence in 2025 and grow to Year 12 in 2026.

We have a full time and/or part-time position(s) for 2024. In particular, expertise in Science is required, however, the ability to teach in other subject areas in Years 7 -12 will be of assistance.

Commencement Date: ASAP

We have the potential of a full time or a combination of part time roles if required.

The Environment
The school will build on the existing Montessori philosophy and as a candidate school for the International Baccalaureate, we will develop new courses to implement the IB Diploma program once we achieve authorisation.
The role involves teaching in our Secondary program, however, teachers may also deliver lessons as specialists to the upper Primary students if appropriate. Our school provides a wonderful Primary Montessori learning environment in which each child can grow to their full potential in all spheres of their development – social, intellectual, emotional, physical and spiritual in accordance with Montessori philosophy. This approach is being continued and extended in establishing our High School program and aligning the secondary program to the IB Diploma programs. There is an expectation that the successful applicant will participate fully in the life of the School, including its co-curricular and pastoral programs.
With small class sizes and new high school buildings opening early term 2, teachers have access to modern well resourced facilities.

When you step into a role, what do you want the purpose of the company you work for to be? How does that align with the individual purpose that motivates your ambition?
As the only independent Medical Research institute in Australia focused on childhood cancer, our purpose is to translate and discover (through world class research), new treatments that will cure cancer and reduce the side effects in children and adolescents.
We save & change lives. At The Children’s Cancer Institute we believe that a life should be long. Cancer cuts life short for hundreds of children every year, before they’ve even had a chance to make their mark. We aim to not only improve their quality of life, but eradicate the cause of their pain.
Choose to be part of a team that will nurture your talent and grow your career, so you too can contribute to this purpose. Together, we can and we will cure all children of cancer. It’s not if. It’s when.
In this position, you will play an important role into generating the best laboratory evidence to ultimately drive clinical translation of results for one of the most difficult-to-treat types of childhood cancer, called sarcoma. The position will include work on in vivo sarcoma patient-derived xenograft models, including tumour implantation, in vivo therapy experiments, post-treatment tumour analysis (eg immunohistochemistry, western blot), and survival/growth analysis. We have a range of promising drugs lined up for in vivo testing, and a very real possibility that if these drugs continue to perform well in our experiments, accelerate clinical translation. It will also involve assisting in the molecular and functional studies of sarcoma cell lines and sarcoma samples, including examining the consequences of mutations/fusions, developing functional genomic screens, test drug responses, examine (phospho)protein signal transduction pathways, and identifying potential drug targeting strategies.
As our Research Assistant your purpose will be to:

Set-up and work with sarcoma patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. This will involve the subcutaneous engraftment of PDXs, monitoring, and treating via oral gavage or IP.
Assist with the development and maintenance of primary sarcoma cell lines
Assist with drug screens and molecular work in the sarcoma cell line models
Assist with general laboratory management including contributing to ordering supplies, maintaining laboratory inventory
Achieve an outstanding level of competence in all aspects of experimental work 
Contribute to quality publications
Be involved in professional activities
Collate, organise and present experimental results
Be compliant with OH&S requirements for handling of human samples and according to Institute policies
Abide by privacy legislation, ethics guidelines and the legal requirements for research involving human material

 To succeed you will have…

Experience with in vivo mouse models/techniques is highly desirable but not essential, as training can be provided. Handling/restraint, oral gavage, and experience with subcutaneous engraftments is a big plus.
Practical experience in the conduct of molecular biology techniques (such as Western Blot, RT PCR, transfection and FACS) and cell culture techniques
Demonstrated experience in data analyses using Microsoft Excel and GraphPad Prism for basic statistical analysis
Commitment to conducting experiments involving humans, animals & GMOs under strict ethical and regulatory guidelines


Excellent listening, verbal, and written communication skills
Ability to quickly respond to situations as they arise
Excellent attention to detail
Flexible attitude to work and ability to work to deadlines
Ability to maintain confidential information


Ability to work independently and as part of a team as necessary


Experience in sarcoma biology and sarcoma cell lines is an advantage

We will support you to be your best with benefits that include but are not limited to:  

Access to our ‘FlexBEST’ program – true flexibility from day 1
Focus on employee wellbeing, including a leading EAP program, and up to 5 gifted wellbeing days off (paid) per year
Investment in leadership development and career advancement opportunities

Join a group of dedicated people in a performance-driven environment to achieve success and discover what it's like to look forward to coming to work every day and make a real difference.
