Bring your organisation, focus, and calmness under pressure to a role that directly supports the creation of high-quality assessment materials used by learners across the UK and internationally.

- Working closely with Assessment Managers and subject experts to track tasks, resolve queries, and maintain momentum against fixed deadlines.
- Managing documentation and workflow using AQA’s internal systems and Microsoft Office, with experience of tools such as GradeMaker or Airtable an advantage.

- Excellent organisational and time management skills.
- The ability to manage multiple deadlines.
- Attention to detail, including grammar, formatting, and document accuracy.
- The ability to communicate confidently via teams, email and in person and build effective working relationships across teams.
- Someone who is adaptable, proactive, and comfortable using judgement to resolve issues.
You will thrive in this role if you enjoy structured processes, clear expectations, and work where precision truly matters.
What’s in it for you
You will join a supportive team and gain exposure to meaningful work that directly impacts learners.
- 25 days annual leave (rising to 30), plus bank holidays and office closure over Christmas.
- Competitive pension scheme (combined contributions up to 18.5%).
