Exams & Assessment Officer

Outwood Academy Bydales is an 11-16 school located in the beautiful coastal village of Marske-by-the-Sea, close to the North York Moors National Park. We are extremely proud of our tradition of serving the families of the community of Marske and surrounding areas. The academy has been part of Outwood Grange Academies Trust, nationally recognised as a high performing academy chain, since September 2014. 

Due to our current Officer relocating in February 2023, we require a new Exams and Assessment Officer to start in January 2023 to ensure a successful handover. 

We are seeking to appoint an intelligent, enthusiastic and flexible individual to join our support team. Supported by a highly skilled and experienced Senior Data & Exams Manager, the successful candidate will be responsible for the running and administration of internal and external examinations and maintaining accurate student records. 

You will be a highly organised and experienced administrator, have excellent communication skills, with the ability to remain composed in a busy environment. Strong IT skills specifically in Microsoft Office are essential and experience of SIMS would be an advantage but is not essential as training will be provided on all aspects of the role. 

You must possess the skills and determination to make a significant difference to the lives of our students and share our single goal of ‘Students First’. The ability to work on your own initiative as well as part of a team is essential, as you will work alongside a team of exam invigilators. Experience of working in a similar role or environment would be an advantage, but we would also welcome applications from anybody who is considering a change in career and feels they can learn quickly with a high level of support.

Outwood Academy Bydales utilises OGAT’s established suite of pre-built analysis reporting tools; the successful candidate will be responsible for populating and maintaining these tools as part of raising student progress and achievement.

We believe that all teaching and support staff posts within our Family of Schools are key posts in terms of supporting student success and achievement across a broad range of subjects and experiences. As such we are keen to recruit dedicated and ambitious professionals who will add value to our Academy in both academic terms and through involvement in the fabric of learning and success beyond the classroom.

To arrange a tour of the academy or if you would like to discuss the role further, please contact our Vice Principal Jo ferris on j.ferris@bydales.outwood.com or our Business Manager, Alex Todd a.todd@bydales.outwood.com 

Alternatively, you can contact the Academy by telephone on 01642 474000
