Job Description

Our Organisation

Pearson VUE has been a pioneer in the computer-based testing industry for decades, delivering more than 15 million certification and licensure exams annually across sectors ranging from academia and admissions to IT and healthcare. We are a global leader in developing and delivering high-stakes exams through the world’s most comprehensive network of nearly 20,000 test centres in 180 countries. Our leadership in the assessment industry is built on collaborative partnerships with a broad range of clients, from leading technology firms to government and regulatory agencies.

Pearson VUE is part of Pearson, the world’s leading learning company, with global reach and market-leading businesses. Pearson is listed on both the London and New York Stock Exchanges (LSE: PSON; NYSE: PSO). Pearson VUE has been featured on Forbes’ list of Best Employers and the Stonewall Top 100 Employers list, and was recognised in the Best Employers for Diversity 2019 awards.

We are proud to offer an exceptional working environment where you can enjoy genuine job satisfaction. We are now hiring a Test Centre Administrator to join our successful team in Birmingham.

Your Opportunity

  • You will be required to work a minimum of 8.5 hours per week.
  • The pay rate is £13.60 per hour, paid monthly.

When you join us as a Test Centre Administrator, you will become an important part of our worldwide, life-changing organisation. You will work alongside talented and motivated colleagues who share our passion for supporting customers throughout their learning and assessment journey.

This is an exciting opportunity to support a wide range of candidates visiting our Pearson VUE test centres to complete their exams. As a Test Centre Administrator, you will be responsible for delivering exams securely while providing exceptional customer service in a comfortable and friendly environment.

Your Responsibilities

In this important role, you will be required to:

  • Welcome, greet and check in customers and test-taking candidates.
  • Comply with all exam security procedures and company policies, using careful judgement at all times
  • Verify customers’ and candidates’ identification documents and explain the exam process and rules.
  • Proctor and invigilate candidates while they complete their exams.
  • Work with internal teams, including IT, to troubleshoot and resolve technical issues in the test centre.
  • Complete light housekeeping duties as required, such as vacuuming floors and sanitising keyboards and workstations.

This is a fantastic opportunity to gain experience working with our diverse professional teams while helping to ensure that every candidate has a positive experience. Our ideal applicant will be a true team player who is available to work a variety of shifts from Monday to Sunday. As our test centres may open early in the morning, late at night and at weekends, flexibility is essential.

Our Successful Applicant

This is a wonderful opportunity to support people during an important event in their lives while protecting the integrity of the Pearson VUE examination process. We are looking for a friendly, professional team player with school qualifications in English and maths. Experience using Microsoft Office applications, including Word, Excel and Outlook, would be an advantage.

You must be flexible and able to work different days and times. You should also be comfortable working in a quiet testing environment, have excellent attention to detail, and be able to monitor candidates for prohibited behaviour and observe details from a distance. The role requires you to sit for extended periods and escort candidates to and from the examination room.

Our Recruitment Process

This is an essential role, so please apply now. Complete and submit your application through the Pearson Careers website as soon as possible. We review applications daily and are currently scheduling interviews, so early applications are encouraged.

We wish you every success with your application.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
