The Exams Office at Abingdon School has the very important role of administering the school’s GCSE and A-Level examinations. This involves complex organisation for very large numbers of pupils. It is crucial to ensure both that all exams run smoothly and calmly for pupils and that all exam board requirements are adhered to rigorously.

We are seeking to expand our friendly and efficient team of Exam Invigilators which plays a vital role in supporting this work. Successful candidates will need to be very reliable, observant, have great attention to detail and be able to remain calm under pressure, as well as having the interpersonal skills to work as part of a team and to communicate effectively and empathetically with pupils taking exams. Candidates must be available to work throughout the peak summer exam period in May and June.

The rate of pay is £13.98 per hour, paid on an hourly, casual worker basis.

We recognise the value of a diverse and inclusive workplace and are committed to equality of opportunity for all staff and job applicants. We aim to ensure that our staffing at all levels and in all roles is diverse and we welcome applications from all backgrounds and all sections of the community.
