Book excerpt: Dedicated to the technical talent underpinning research, teaching and innovation within universities and research institutes, this book highlights the vital contributions of technicians to the higher education and research sector. Exploring the varied definitions of the technical role and recent developments in the professional landscape, this book brings together a diverse set of contributors who each discuss their unique, first-hand and authentic perspectives on this crucial community. Initial chapters cover the varied definitions of the technical role, explore the current demographics of this workforce and provide a history of the origins of the profession. The book continues to explore broad themes that are key components of the roles of the modern-day technician including teaching, research, leading core facilities, health and safety, procurement, environmental sustainability and research culture. It concludes by looking to the future and explores recent developments in the landscape for the technical community and the work underway to engage the public with technical roles and careers, challenging perceptions and stereotypes about the roles of technicians. Written in an accessible style, this essential volume shines a light on this understudied group to raise the profile of technical careers, roles and contributions, and to ensure sector-wide insights into this invisible workforce. It is a must-read for aspiring and current technicians across all disciplines, education and research leaders, managers and policymakers.
