Exam Invigilator

We require an Exam Invigilator to join The Victory Academy to support with the busy exam periods. Your presence will maintain the integrity of examinations in an environment that enables a student to perform at their best.

You will assist with setting up of exam venues, checking examination packs, assisting candidates and actively invigilating during examinations. You will be required to check attendance, record relevant details, so good communication, both written and verbal, are essential.  You may be required to scribe/read for students – full training will be provided.

Employment for this position is offered on a casual basis. Hours worked vary between 8.00 am and 5.30 pm. Exam sessions are up to three hours, so invigilation sessions may be up to four hours in some instances. You will be asked to attend a training session where full training for the role will be given.

What you will need to succeed:

• It is essential that you possess good interpersonal skills and an ability to deal with matters calmly, swiftly and firmly, without being confrontational.   
• Previous experience in working with secondary school age children would be a distinct advantage, as would any previous supervision experience, although this is not essential.  
• Confidentiality inside and outside the workplace is essential, as is the ability to support Academy ethos and vision into the wide community.

What we can offer you:

• Reduced membership of a fully-equipped fitness suite and classes
• Access to a free and confidential employee assistance service, offering wellbeing support and counselling
• Free onsite parking
