Assessment Supervisor
Applications for this vacancy closed on 11 September 2024 at 12:00PM
**Job Title: Assessment Supervisor **
**Department/Division/Faculty: AAD, Student Registry**
**Grade: G5 £28,759-£33,966 per annum**
The University of Oxford is a stimulating work environment, which enjoys an
international reputation as a world-class centre of excellence. Our research
plays a key role in tackling many global challenges, from reducing our carbon
emissions to developing vaccines during a pandemic.
**Department**
Student Registry is seeking to recruit as Assessment Supervisor to provide
administrative and operational support within the Student Assessments section.
The successful candidate will work with the team to plan and support the
running of student assessments across the University. The role is varied, and
involves working with colleagues from right across the university.
**What We Offer**
As an employer, we genuinely care about our employees’ wellbeing and this is
reflected in the range of benefits that we offer including:
• An excellent contributory pension scheme
• 38 days annual leave
• A comprehensive range of childcare services
• Family leave schemes
• Cycle loan scheme
• Discounted bus travel and Season Ticket travel loans
• Membership to a variety of social and sports clubs
This role also offers the opportunity for hybrid working.
**About the Role**
The role of Assessment 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.
The team covers several operational areas: examination timetabling,
invigilation management, student supports, exam paper management, and
assessment policy and process review. The Assessment Supervisor will lead on
one of these areas, but should expect to covers other areas within the team at
peak periods.
**About You**
We seek an individual who is committed to understanding and reviewing
processes, thinking through and identifying solutions to complex problems in a
thorough manner. You are quick to learn and apply IT skills, and have the
ability to pinpoint issues and implement improvements to ensure delivery of an
effective service. You should have excellent written and verbal communication
skills, with a proven ability to multitask as well as manage and prioritise
workloads for yourself and for others. You must be able to communicate well
with students, administrators and academic staff. A successful candidate will
be happy to work as part of a team or independently, and under supervision or
under their own initiative.
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**
You will be required to upload a covering letter/supporting statement, CV and
the details of two referees as part of your online application.
The closing date for applications is 12 noon on Wednesday 11 September.
Interviews will take place during week commencing Monday 23 September and will
be face to face.
