We are looking to appoint an Exams Officer to take responsibility for the efficient and effective running of all internal and external examinations within the school.  The role will include liaising with staff, students, invigilators and examination boards and ensuring a high quality of administration and communication.  You will lead an Exams Assistant and a team of invigilators. A friendly and efficient attitude is essential.

This is a key role within the school and the successful candidate must be confident in Microsoft Word and Excel, well organised, with a “can do” approach and be resilient under pressure.   You should possess excellent attention to detail and be highly self-motivated with a flexible approach to tasks.  Previous experience of working in a school examinations position would be an advantage but it is not essential as training and support will be provided.

This position is for 37 hours per week, term time plus 2 weeks however, for the right candidate, we are able to offer a 38 week contract whereby the 2 weeks to be worked in the summer holiday can be taken as 2 weeks in term time outside of exam seasons.  The salary is on scale H8-H9 depending on experience (£35,163 - £42,500 per annum pro rata, inc. fringe), which translates to an approximate actual salary for 37 hrs per week, term time plus 2 wks of £31,155 - £37,656 per annum, inc. fringe.

We were delighted to be awarded a ‘Good’ rating by Ofsted in March 2023, this recognises the hard work and progress made by all in the school.  Prospective candidates are encouraged to read the full report available on our website at https://stanborough.herts.sch.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/2023-OFSTED-Report.pdf.
