About this Role

We are seeking part-time Examination Invigilators and Access Arrangement support staff to assist with examinations during all exam seasons, both public and internal.

Although flexible arrangements can be made to suit individual availability, we are looking for candidates who can commit to working throughout all our exam seasons.

In order to be successful in this role you will need to have excellent organisational skills, an ability to communicate effectively and have excellent interpersonal skills. Some invigilation will involve candidates using computers so good IT skills are essential. Overall, the Invigilator should be confident and have a reassuring presence in the room. This post involves regulated activity with children. The successful candidate will be responsible for the welfare of pupils during what can be a stressful time for them. As such you must be fully aware of all safeguarding policies and procedures and the application of those in this role.


Our Exams Office organises all examinations, both public and internal, ensuring all regulations of the various governing bodies are adhered to.

Exams seasons are throughout the year as follows: University entrance exams - early November School exams - end of November and end of June

A level and GCSE mock exams - early January, and late February to March Language orals and Art exams - March and April

Public exams - May and June

Exam start and end times are within the hours of 08:30 to 12:30, 12:30 to 16:30 and 16:15 to 18:30. Invigilators are required to arrive 45 minutes ahead of exams starting and to stay to complete all

necessary tasks after the end of exams. Invigilators are paid for the hours worked within the session times.

We are looking for someone that has good verbal and written communication skills, the ability to work as part of a team and able to have a good rapport with young people. Above all be a  reassuring presence in the exam room. 

Previous experience in a similar role would be advantageous but not essential.
