Are you an experienced electrical professional with an assessing background, ready to support the next generation of electricians?

About the Role

You'll join a further education provider as an Electrical Assessor/IQA, carrying out assessments with apprentices and work-based learners and quality assuring the assessment practice of others.

  • Conducting internal quality assurance of assessment decisions and supporting standardisation activity across the team.
  • Holding regular progress reviews with learners and their employers, setting clear actions towards timely completion.
  • Maintaining accurate assessment records, tracking systems and documentation for audit and awarding body purposes.
  • Liaising with external verifiers and awarding bodies to support visits and maintain consistent documentation.

Essential:

  • Level 3 qualification in Electrical Installation or equivalent
  • Recognised assessor award and assessing experience
  • Extensive industry experience in the electrical sector

Desirable (but not essential):

  • Internal quality assurance award
  • Experience of apprenticeship delivery and end-point assessment preparation
  • Working knowledge of health and safety standards within the sector

Support the next generation of electricians
