Deputy Examinations Officer

We are seeking to appoint a Deputy Examinations Officer to support the effective delivery of the School’s examination processes. This role will support the Examinations Officer in the administration of all public examinations for Years 11 to 13, while taking lead responsibility for the planning and delivery of internal examinations across Years 9 to 13. Working closely with the Examinations Officer, the successful candidate will help ensure that all examination processes are conducted efficiently, securely, and in full compliance with Joint Council for Qualifications (JCQ), Cambridge, and other awarding body regulations. Key responsibilities include coordinating invigilators, preparing and maintaining accurate examination documentation, overseeing the secure handling of examination materials, and assisting with the processing of results and post-results services. The postholder will also act as a daily examination supervisor and deputise for the Examinations Officer when required. The ideal candidate will have strong administrative experience, preferably within a school or college examinations environment. A high level of IT competence is essential, particularly in Microsoft Excel. Experience of public examinations, familiarity with JCQ or Cambridge International regulations, and knowledge of school MIS systems would be advantageous. Excellent organisational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple deadlines are essential, as is discretion when handling confidential information. Weekly hours are 37.5 during term time plus 5 weeks during School holidays. Some flexibility with daily starting and finishing times is required to fulfil the requirements of the role. The School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. Applicants must therefore be willing to undergo child protection screening and safer recruitment checks appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service.
