An exciting opportunity has arisen for a highly motivated Examinations and Assessment Co-ordinator to join the busy Postgraduate Exams and Assessments team within the College of Business and Social Sciences. The post is offered on a fixed term basis for 18 months.

You will provide administrative support for Examination Boards, chasing, entering and checking all assessment marks, updating the student records system (SITS) and informing students of results by strict deadlines. You will also assist with the collection of assessment data, reviewing submission deadline schedules, setting up coursework submission links on our VLE (Blackboard) and formatting examination papers.
