About the role

Working as part of York College's Examinations Office you will support the team in all aspects of student registration, examination and certification processes with specific responsibility for Awarding Organisations as nominated by the Examinations Officer. This will predominantly take the form of all aspects of examinations and assessments for GCSE, A Level, T Level qualification and any written exams included in the traditional exam series. Due to the nature of national exam windows, holidays during the Spring and Summer term will have restrictions on them.

You will be able to maintain accurate data records contributing to College compliance in relation to achievement reporting, inspections and audits. You will also support the work of the College Student Data and Exams Manager to provide a quality service and respond quickly and efficiently to queries and requests for information relating to exams, from students, staff and external agencies. There will be significant work using MS Excel and we will expect the successful candidate to already have a working knowledge of filters, formulas and basic pivot tables to a suitable level.

This is a full-time role covering the full span of the calendar year. Many of our staff work flexibly in many different ways, including working from home. In this role you may wish to work from home for part of the week, except during your exam series. During exam periods, starting the workday early and potentially staying late will be needed due to tight scheduling of national exams via Awarding Organisations. We encourage you to talk to us at interview about the flexibility you need. We can't promise to give you exactly what you want, but we will explore what's possible.

About the Person

You will be friendly and approachable, and be able to work independently, and as part of a team. You will be very well organised and able to keep track of several different qualifications and assessment rules to meet Awarding Organisation (AO) requirements. Having strong attention to detail when entering data, you will also have strong customer service skills. You will need to be proficient with MS Excel, Word, search engines, and will receive training for the in-house software as part of the role.
