We are seeking an outstanding Examinations Officer to administer internal and external examinations at the College. The Examinations Officer is responsible for the administration and organisation of all aspects of internal and external examinations.

The Examinations Officer leads our team of Exam Invigilators and is supported and line-managed by the Assistant Principal. He/she will be the main point of contact between the school and the examination/awarding bodies and will need to liaise with the Senior Leadership Team (in particular the Assistant Principal), the SEN Department, Heads of Department, teaching staff, candidates and parents/guardians. He/she is also responsible for the organisation and work of any examination invigilators and/or facilitators.

36 hours per week, 43 weeks per year.

This job requires the post holder to have flexible working arrangements to include additional hours over the examination period and TOIL during quieter periods. There is a requirement to work on results day and that week (which will be during the summer holidays).

The GST is a multi-academy trust serving 23 schools within the Diocese of Guildford across Surrey and Hampshire. Our trust comprises both primary and secondary schools, schools affiliated to the Church of England and others who are not. Our purpose is to grow and maintain a strong network of schools within a highly supportive and sharing network: we know that schools are better when they work together sharing common values and goals. Opportunities for staff development are a key priority for us - as a member of support staff, as a teacher, as a head teacher or as a local committee member you will have access to wide and varied professional development.

We are working hard to become a more diverse organisation – which is key to our commitment “to be better, together”. We welcome applications from everyone committed to this ethos and would particularly welcome applications from black and minority ethnic candidates, who are currently under-represented in the Group as a whole. We always appoint on merit. We are always open to discussing flexible working options.

Please note that we reserve the right to interview on application should a suitable candidate apply and we have the right to withdraw this advert prior to the closing date. You are therefore strongly encouraged to apply for the role as soon as possible.
