Location: Flexible, with attendance at one meeting in Manchester, UK

Are you skilled in setting assessments for international foundation years or other FHEQ level 3 (A-level equivalent) qualifications?  NCUK is recruiting experienced academic staff to set exams and coursework assessments starting early Summer 2018.  We offer competitive fees and a high level of flexibility to allow you to balance this with your existing commitments.

NCUK is unique in higher education.  We are a consortium of leading universities dedicated to giving international students guaranteed access to universities worldwide and helping them succeed when they get there.  Our qualifications are recognised by our own universities and by universities internationally, and, far more than other qualifications, they prepare students to hit the ground running.

As an Assessment Developer, you will write the coursework and produce the exam paper and marking scheme.  You will be excellent at delivering to deadlines, experienced in teaching, writing assessments and examining students in the subject at this level (FHEQ 3), and ideally hold a teaching qualification.

We are currently recruiting two assessment developers for modules in Physics.

Payment is made based upon an agreed fee with expenses being paid for attendance at NCUK meetings.
