  • Delegate tasks to fellow invigilators and ensure JCQ regulations are followed to the letter
  • Book, train and manage a team of casual invigilators

  • Report any hiccups, whether it's a suspicious glance or a missing paper, so they're handled swiftly and professionally

You need:

  • A calm, professional presence and knack for leadership
  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to manage behaviour sensitively
  • Confidence with ICT and a willingness to learn new systems
  • A flexible, enthusiastic attitude and a commitment to putting students first
  • Previous invigilation experience is a bonus, but not essential

Benefits: 5.5 weeks holiday paid in salary, 21.7% College pension contribution to LGPS, health care cash plan, free car parking, discounted Hair & Beauty, on-site gym, staff development & training, Pluxee Retail Discount Scheme, and more!
