Closing date for applications: The vacancy will be closed once a suitable appointment has been made.
Interview date: Suitable candidates will be contacted to attend for interview.
Each academic year we require a team of responsible people to invigilate for a variety of exams. The main exam periods are in November, February, March, May and June but we also run mock examinations at other times of the year. We are recruiting some additional members for our existing team of exam invigilators. The hours are flexible and varied and will suit someone who is looking to make a difference and can offer their time on a casual basis. All hours are agreed in advance each year and can fit around other commitments.
Please note that you must be fully available during the main exam periods (November, February, March, May and June).
You do not need previous examination experience, although an understanding of the importance and formality of the examination procedure and/or experience in managing groups of young people would be helpful. You may be required to travel to carry out home invigilation's, read and/or scribe for students. Training will be provided. If you are calm under pressure, have a pleasant nature but a keen eye then this could be the position for you.
