With over 40,000 enrolments the efficient co-ordination of examinations across the College is a key priority.  We are seeking to recruit a dynamic, organised and enthusiastic person to fill the post and help to take the Department to the next level.  We require a person who is focused on students and their college experience, and who is able to follow structured processes and procedures.

In this post, you will be responsible for an area of exam administration which includes exam entries, exam access arrangements, running of external examinations and the recording of achievements.

You must have a good understanding of administrative systems and a good working knowledge of Microsoft Office along with excellent time management skills.  Experience of using a College Management Information System is essential.  You must have good communication skills with the ability to deal with people from a variety of different backgrounds and be a good team player.  Working to tight deadlines is essential with the ability to work well under pressure.  Proven experience in an examination related or further education administrative role is desirable but not essential.

Our 6-college merger places the group at the forefront of further education in the region. With a turnover of £99m, 20,000 students and 1900 staff it is one of the strongest and most influential further education organisations in the country. 

Our college environment is second to none. We have industry standard facilities and equipment at all campuses, expert staff and partnerships with other high-profile organisations which all prepare students for progression to higher education or successful careers.

East London is dynamic, innovative and entrepreneurial. As we develop our longer-term vision, we will continue to ensure that we invest in our staff and other resources to provide a distinctive offer and excellent, supportive learning environment which meets the needs of students and employers and prepares local people for the changing workforce of the area. 

As the College supports a number of children and vulnerable adults, all staff are exempt from Section 4(2) of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. Accordingly, all staff will be subject to an ‘Enhanced’ DBS (formerly CRB) check, along with a Children’s Barred List check if in regulated activity. Any offers of appointment may be withdrawn if these checks prove to be unsatisfactory to the College. Self-disclosure will be required as part of the recruitment process. If you fail to make a full disclosure or provide sight of your DBS certificate then your offer of employment is likely to be withdrawn. The College's DBS policy covers the recruitment of ex-offenders which is available upon request.

New City College aims to develop a workforce that reflects the diverse community we serve and actively welcome applications from candidates from a BAME background.
