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 DVSA.
You will use your exceptional people skills to put nervous test candidates at ease. Read more about working at DVSA Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency – Department for Transport Careers.
