* Use Bromcom to manage exam data, reporting, and analysis
* Liaise with awarding bodies to ensure accurate and timely communication
* Recruit, train, and manage a team of invigilators
* Work closely with the SEN department to coordinate access arrangements
* Assist in the analysis of exam data to support school performance and planning
* Ensure compliance with JCQ regulations and school policies
* Provide clear guidance and support to students and staff regarding exam procedures
What we are looking for:
* Exceptional organisational and administrative skills
* Strong attention to detail and ability to meet deadlines
* Ability to plan and prioritise effectively across the exam cycle
* Professional and calm communication style
* Experience in exams administration (preferred)
* Ability to work independently and collaboratively
* Proven experience with Bromcom (preferred)

In addition, the school currently contributes 22.5% (between £6,658.66 and £7,593.77 pa) towards you being a member of the Local Government Pension Scheme.
