Examination Invigilator

Salary: £14.88 per hour.

At Roedean, we are dedicated to providing a world-class education that inspires and empowers girls aged 11-18 to achieve their full potential. Our stunning cliff-top location overlooking the sea, combined with our rich heritage and commitment to academic excellence, makes Roedean a truly unique and inspiring place to learn and work. We are proud of our inclusive and supportive community where every student is encouraged to pursue their passions and develop the skills they need for future success.

Examination invigilators are required to assist during exam periods within the hours of8.30am – 5.30pm (with one hour unpaid lunch), Monday – Friday during Summer Exam Period (approximately 6 weeks) and to invigilate internal exams which will normally be held in November (1.5 weeks approximately) and January (1.5 weeks approximately). At times it may be necessary to work out of these hours.

The invigilator is required to work as part of a team in the main Examination Hall to ensure that examinations are carried out according to the rules set out by the Examination Boards. The invigilation of candidates sitting examinations in smaller rooms is also required, and the ability to act as a reader and/or scribe for individual candidates who have physical or learning difficulty is desirable.

Roedean is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

Applicants will be required to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).

The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. The School is therefore permitted to ask job applicants to declare all convictions and cautions on a self-declaration form in advance of attending an interview (including those which are "spent" unless they are "protected" under the DBS filtering rules) in order to assess their suitability to work with children.

Closing date for applications: 9.00am 2 November 2026. Due to the need to appoint quickly we reserve the right to interview and appoint at any time.
