Careers Assessment Manager, Chemistry

You will be one of our subject specialists in Chemistry and will be signing off the question papers taken by learners in the many exam series that we offer. You will oversee the production of all assessment materials associated with the syllabuses to ensure their successful delivery for learners. As well as developing and signing off question papers, you will work on grading, setting the thresholds that determine grades.

As part of the University of Cambridge, we work to incredibly high standards. All our question papers need to be 100% accurate and error free. Every paper must assess what we say it assesses, and the grade thresholds that we set provide a reliable indication for employers and universities around the world of candidates' attainment in the subject. You must make sure question papers are comparable from series-to-series, year-to-year, and are fair to candidates from different countries and backgrounds.

Working with a range of stakeholders, you will be involved in a wide range of tasks. You will manage the recruitment of our Assessment Specialists, including Setters, Revisers, Vetters and Principal Examiners. You will manage teams of examiners and contribute to capacity building for the future. You will work collaboratively with our ministry partners around the world to develop and revise their syllabuses.
