The Exams Office, in partnership with the National Association of Examinations Officers (NAEO), launched an initiative to support centres in recruiting invigilators ahead of the summer 2022 exam series – the Exams Recruitment & Vacancy Map.

The map was promoted by our partners and key stakeholders including the Department for Education, the JCQ and its’ member awarding organisations.

This map now continues to provide centres with an opportunity to advertise their invigilator vacancies (and other exams and data related posts) at no cost.

 

Before adding a vacancy, users are required to create a centre account, at which point please ensure that:

  • Information relating to any vacancy listed on the Exams Recruitment & Vacancy Map is listed on your centre website
  • A link to the vacancy information on your centre website is added to the Exams Recruitment & Vacancy Map
  • The correct address, including postcode, for your centre is added
  • The location of your centre is shown accurately on the Exams Recruitment & Vacancy Map (move the pin location to the correct location if required)
  • All details are accurate before submitting for inclusion on the Exams Recruitment & Vacancy Map

 

Updates

From the 2022/2023 academic year, the Exams Recruitment & Vacancy Map was updated to include the following functionality:

  • Centres can create a ‘Centre account’ to allow easier management of centre vacancies
  • The option to add a range of additional exams and data related vacancies
  • The addition of an advertisement end date
  • A free-text box to include additional information including contract and salary details
  • The ability to amend information after a vacancy has been listed
  • Centres can add up to 10 vacancies
