About the Role

The role of Assessment Projects & Continuous Improvements Supervisor requires someone who embraces change, is happy to initiate and lead on improvements of systems and processes, can take on line management of other members of staff during peak periods, and who enjoys a steep learning curve.

The work will be challenging and, at times, very fast paced.

However, the role presents an ideal opportunity for developing a career in University administration, and gaining a deeper understanding of discrete areas of the examinations and assessments arena, as well as experience in project coordination.

The Student Assessments unit covers several operational areas: examination operations, student supports, summative coursework submissions, research degree examination, and assessment policy and process review.

The Assessment Projects and Continuous Improvements Supervisor will work with each of these areas, to help them identify scope for process improvement, and to coordinate with university projects.

They should also expect to cover other areas within the unit at peak periods.

About You
You will have demonstrable experience working in a student focused/customer service environment, with strong IT skills. Experience of Microsoft SharePoint, Student Systems (eVision/SITS), and knowledge of Higher Education would be an advantage.

Application Process
Interviews will take place during week commencing 22 April 2024 and will be face to face.
