We are seeking a reliable and vigilant Examination Supervisor to oversee and maintain order during academic examinations. The ideal candidate will ensure that all exams are conducted fairly and in accordance with established guidelines and regulations.

The Examination Supervisor will play a crucial role in upholding the integrity of the examination process and creating a conducive environment for students to perform their best.

  • Key Responsibilities:
  • Preparation and setup: Assist in preparing and arranging exam venues, including distributing examination papers, stationery, and other materials as necessary.
  • Adherence to procedures: Ensure strict adherence to examination procedures and regulations at all times, maintaining confidentiality and integrity throughout the examination process.
  • Supervision and monitoring: Supervise students during exams, ensuring they adhere to rules and regulations, maintain silence, and refrain from any form of academic dishonesty.
  • Assistance to students: Provide assistance and clarification to students when necessary, addressing procedural queries and ensuring a smooth examination experience.
  • Conflict resolution: Handle disturbances or irregularities that may arise during the examination, following established protocols and maintaining professionalism.
  • Timekeeping: Monitor and manage time allocated for each section of the examination, alerting students to remaining time and ensuring fair distribution across sections.
  • Collection of examination materials: Collect completed examination scripts and other materials from students, ensuring accuracy and completeness before submission.
  • Reporting: Report incidents, irregularities, or breaches of examination regulations to the appropriate authorities promptly and accurately.
  • Feedback and improvement: Provide feedback on the examination process and suggest improvements to enhance efficiency, security, and fairness.

Qualifications and Skills:

  • High school diploma or equivalent qualification required; higher education preferred.
  • Previous experience in exam invigilation or a related field is preferred but not essential.
  • Excellent written and spoken English communication skills, with the ability to interact professionally with students and staff.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to maintain focus for extended periods.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to interact professionally with students and staff.
  • Integrity, reliability, and a commitment to upholding academic standards and regulations.
  • Ability to remain calm and composed under pressure and handle conflicts or emergencies effectively.
  • Flexibility to work irregular hours, including evenings and weekends, depending on the examination schedule.

Working Conditions:

The role involves working in a controlled examination environment, often under strict time constraints and with minimal breaks. Candidates may be required to stand or walk for extended periods and maintain vigilance throughout the examination duration.

Candidates will work at one of 5 sites across our London campus, including Holborn, Fitzrovia, Wembley, Kingsbury, and Southall. Preference will be given to candidates who are flexible and can work at various campuses rather than just one. Invigilators may need to travel between campuses as needed, so access to transportation or willingness to commute is essential.

Salary: £13.15 per hour

Reports to: Exam Manager

The salary for this position is based on the current market rate and takes into account the qualifications, skills, and experience required for the role. As an Examination Supervisor, you can expect a competitive hourly rate and benefits package that reflects your value to the organization.
