The posting

Are you organised, reliable, and able to remain calm and professional in a busy environment?

We are looking for Exam Invigilators to join our team at Lift Sir Herbert Leon and support the smooth, effective running of examinations across the school.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working with young people and can provide a calm, organised and supportive presence during important periods in their education.

About the role

  • As an Exam Invigilator, you will work under the direction of the Exams Officer to ensure examinations are conducted correctly and in accordance with Joint Council for Qualifications (JCQ) regulations.
  • Your key responsibilities will include:
  • Preparing examination rooms and ensuring they are set up correctly
  • Checking student attendance and candidate information
  • Distributing examination papers and materials
  • Providing clear instructions to students before examinations begin
  • Supervising students and maintaining appropriate examination conditions in accordance with JCQ guidance
  • Ensuring examination regulations are followed at all times
  • Responding calmly and appropriately to queries, disruptions or unexpected situations
  • Recording and reporting any incidents to the relevant member of staff
  • Collecting examination papers and materials at the end of each exam
  • Supporting the safe and orderly arrival and departure of students
  • Undertaking reading and/or scribing duties for students where required
  • Undertaking tasks as delegated by the exams officer
  • You'll play an important role in creating a calm, professional and well-organised examination environment, helping students feel supported while ensuring the integrity of the examination process is maintained.

What we're looking for

We're looking for someone who is dependable, professional and confident working with groups of young people.

You'll have strong communication and literacy skills, follow instructions and schedules accurately, and remain calm under pressure. You'll also be comfortable using your initiative to resolve problems while working within established procedures.

You'll be student-focused, patient, and sensitive to the needs of young people who may require additional support. A high level of integrity and professionalism is essential because examinations are confidential and regulated.

Experience working with children or in an educational setting would be beneficial, as would prior knowledge of examination procedures and protocols, though neither is essential.

Your new school

Lift Sir Herbert Leon is an 11-16 mixed comprehensive school in Bletchley, Milton Keynes. The academy offers excellent learning facilities, particularly in Sport and the Arts, including a theatre/cinema, a library and a swimming pool. Our work is underpinned by our core values of Ambition, Kindness, Respect, and Determination, which shape how we learn, work, and grow together as a community. The school's vision is to ensure that every student rises to ambitious challenges and experiences success both academically and personally. The school strongly emphasises removing barriers and enabling every student to thrive, with strong partnerships with families and the wider community at the heart of this approach.

In recent years, it has been judged 'Good' by Ofsted in each area (October 2024), won 'Secondary School of the Year 2025' at the Milton Keynes Education Awards, and achieved its best-ever English & Maths combined GCSE scores at 4+ (63%) and 5+ (46%) in summer 2026.

You'll join a dedicated team of colleagues working together to provide our students with an excellent education and a positive school experience.

Why join Lift Schools?

Lift Schools is made up of 62 primary, secondary and special schools, educating more than 35,000 pupils across the country. We believe education can transform lives - and we want every child in our schools to achieve their full potential.

How we support you

We want you to feel supported, valued and able to grow throughout your career with Lift Schools. From high-quality professional development and career progression to wellbeing support and opportunities to connect and collaborate across our network, we invest in you so you can do your best work.

This is a casual contract with a proposed start date of November 2026.

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.
