Overview
DVSA driving examiners assess whether learner drivers (and riders) are safe and competent to drive independently on our roads. Most importantly, this work saves lives. We’re looking for proactive, friendly, and safe drivers who’d like to train to become Driving Examiners. Driving Examiners come from all walks of life: you don't need a background in driver training or a driving-related profession to join us. Driving examiners assess practical driving tests, but do not teach people to drive – this is a separate role carried out by driving instructors who are not employed by DVSA.
Responsibilities
* Use exceptional people skills to put nervous test candidates at ease.
* Conduct the driving test in the candidate’s vehicle and assess whether they meet the required standards to pass the test.
* Record performance on a tablet and provide both positive and constructively critical feedback clearly after the test.
* Work full-time 37 hours a week over seven days and complete seven driving tests each day.
* Work one weekend day each month (a weekday off will be scheduled when this occurs).
Benefits
* Employer pension contribution of 28.97% of your salary. Read more about Civil Service Pensions here
* 25 days annual leave, increasing by 1 day each year of service (up to a maximum of 30 days), plus 8 bank holidays and a privilege day for the King’s birthday
* Flexible working options that support a good work-life balance.
