Exam Invigilator

From the advert

We are looking to expand our team of invigilators for our upcoming exam periods as detailed below. Successful candidates will have a genuine interest in supporting our students to perform to the best of their ability and will be required to:

• provide assistance with the setting-up of exam rooms

• promote a calm environment in which candidates feel relaxed and confident

• help to ensure that the right students are in the right places at the right time

• issue students with the correct papers, communicating vital information and ensuring they are equipped with the materials they need

• invigilate exams

• collect papers at the end of an exam

• work with our Exams Officer to ensure that regulations are adhered to

• monitor behaviour during exam sessions

• scribe for students who have Access Arrangements in place

• Attend appropriate training and regular refresher sessions.

Above all, we are looking for reliable, flexible and enthusiastic individuals with a calming influence and an eye for detail. The ability to communicate clearly and accurately with both students and staff is also key, as is the ability to follow set instructions both as part of a team and on an individual basis. Other qualities we are looking for include punctuality and a common sense approach.
