Exams and Student Services Administrator

Judged as "outstanding" by Ofsted, the warm and welcoming community of Sir John Deane's College is looking to appoint a proactive Exams Administrator to support our Student Services department.

At the College we are extremely proud of our students' achievements and we have a strong ethos of ambition and aspiration which runs through all aspects of College life. The College is a great place to work with a beautiful, modern campus. Colleagues are recognised for their hard work and we offer a wide range of benefits such as a free onsite car park, onsite coffee shops, Christmas closure period, a significantly enhanced occupational pension scheme plus many more.

We are committed to Equal Opportunities and positively welcome applications from every section of the community. The ability to fulfil all spoken aspects of the role with confidence through the medium of English is essential. Sir John Deane's is also committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and therefore appropriate safeguarding checks including a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check will be made prior to appointment. We promote the British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance and we expect all staff and volunteers to share our commitments.

The Post

This is a varied and interesting position supporting all exams at the College, including BTEC examinations. The successful candidate will be responsible for specific areas of exam administration, set-up and coordination.

This exciting opportunity is open to candidates with previous experience in exams or alternatively, someone who is organised, methodical and efficient who can work with minimum supervision once directed.

The post is to start as soon as possible. The hours of work will flex around internal and examinations periods. We anticipate that during non-exam weeks the hours of work will be 32.5 per week (Monday to Friday 8.30am to 3.30pm) increasing during examinations to cover the requirement of exams, averaging out at 35 hours per week across the year. The post is a term time only plus one week to be worked during the College holidays. This week will need to be worked between A-level results day and GCSE results day, after which the College returns from our summer break.

Closing Date for Applications

The closing date for applications is 01 November 2024. Interviews are provisionally scheduled for 14 November 2024.

If you are interested in applying for this role, you are strongly encouraged to get your application form submitted at the earliest opportunity, as we reserve the right to close our adverts earlier than advertised where sufficient applications have been received.

We wish you every success in the process of applying for a post at Sir John Deane's. Sir John Deane's is a wonderful College and we hope you can make your own contribution to our community.
