**Assessment Standards (Education Service Officer)**

We are recruiting an Education Services Officer to our Assessment Standards team in Assessment Management, within the Education Services directorate.

The team has oversight of assessment regulations, quality processes, external examining, and academic misconduct.

Assessment Management consists of six teams;
- Assessment Delivery,
- Assessment Systems,
- Assessment Standards,
- Assessment Service Desk,
- Assessment Mitigations,
- Progression and Classification.

Assessment Management is part of a wider Education Services department. The department is organised around three thematic areas: Assessment, Student and Curriculum. Colleagues work collaboratively and flexibly to support the needs of the whole department in relation to the demands of the academic calendar.

The Officer's role will provide expert guidance and support to external examiners, academic staff, students and other Professional Services staff, supported by their team, on a wide range of assessment related issues. The role will require the ability to provide excellent stakeholder service and administrative support for assessment activities across Manchester Metropolitan University. There will be a need to establish excellent working relationships across Professional Service area, the academic community and with collaborative partners.

We are looking for someone who:

- Has excellent attention to detail and the ability to read, interpret and contribute to the drafting of complex regulatory and sub-regulatory policy documents.
- Has excellent levels of accuracy and the ability to interpret data to come to decisions within the framework of regulatory requirements.

- Has a passion, ability, and experience in delivering high levels of stakeholder service and effective communication.
- Can work flexibly to achieve team objectives by assisting others and working collaboratively to complete tasks and projects.
