Job description

This is a great opportunity to become part of our highly professional, friendly, support team.

You will have a “can do” attitude and are practical, calm, energetic and diligent. Previous experience would be an advantage but not essential as training will be given.

As well as ensuring exam board regulations are adhered to throughout the exam process and that the examinations run smoothly, Exam Invigilators will also assist with setting up the exams hall, distributing and collecting exam papers and ensuring students are seated according to seating plans.

Although most of our students will sit exams in our dedicated exams hall, our Exams Invigilators may also need to give additional support to those students sitting exams individually by becoming a reader and/or scribe.

Flexibility of hours to be worked is essential. Mock exams run in November and March, with the main external exam season running from May to July. Morning sessions start at 8.30am, generally finishing around 11.30am, afternoon sessions start at 12.30pm, usually finishing by 3.10pm. Exact dates would be confirmed well in advance, with the possibility of additional sessions being offered later as unexpected situations arise.
