Job Title: Assessment Manager, Economics and Business
Salary: £43,800 - £58,500 (annual)
Location: Cambridge & Hybrid working
Contract: Permanent, full time (35 hours per week)
We are Cambridge University Press & Assessment, a world-leading academic publisher and assessment organisation and a proud part of the University of Cambridge.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a current/previous Teacher to take a step away from the classroom, whilst still working in education and pursuing potential around the world.
About the role
You will be a subject specialist in Economics and Business, managing the exams that our students sit every series. You will oversee the production of all assessment materials associated with the syllabuses to ensure their successful delivery for learners. Additionally, you will work on grading and setting the thresholds that our learners are held to.
Working as part of Cambridge University, we work to incredibly high standards. All of our question papers need to be 100% accurate and error-free. You must ensure the exams are comparable from series-to-series, year-to-year, and are fair to candidates from different countries and backgrounds.
Working with a range of stakeholders, you will manage the recruitment of our Assessment Specialists, including Setters, Revisers, Vetters and Assistant Examiners, as well as their allocation of work and performance.
About you
We are looking for you to have a degree in an Economics or Business subject area, or a closely related subject. Your standard of English will be very high, and knowledge of assessments in an education setting is essential. Experience in the classroom as a Teacher and knowledge of international education is preferred.
Post-graduate qualifications in educational assessment, project management, or experience in examination would be beneficial.
