This is an on campus role (not agile), and applicants must be able to work core office hours and additional hours where required during examination sessions and to meet deadlines in their preparation. There is also significant manual handling as part of the role.

This role is a good opportunity to start a career in H.E. and examination administration. Recent previous post holders have been successful in building their skills and experience in this role to enable them to achieve promotions to more challenging roles.

This role will not attract sufficient points to obtain a sponsored Skilled Worker visa under the points-based immigration system, however, applications are welcome from candidates who don’t currently have the right to work in the UK, but who would be eligible to obtain a visa via another route.

The interview will be in person, on campus.

You will also enjoy the benefits of working at Oxford Brookes University with up to 38 days holiday, rising to 41 days holiday (this includes 13 Bank Holidays and Concessionary Days), a generous Local Government pension scheme (19.2% Employer contribution rate), cycle to work scheme and access to a variety of university facilities (Brookes Nursery, Gym and sports facilities).
