Exam seasons are busy periods that run across the academic year in which schools, colleges and universities appoint large numbers of exam invigilators to support growing demand.
The good news is that exam invigilators are highly sought after, and we recruit extensively throughout the year for roles in a variety of different locations. The even better news is that these are easy, flexible, term-time positions that suit a wide range of people.

In fact, exam invigilator roles are well-suited to anyone who is seeking flexibility in their working life and wants an alternative to full-time or part-time work.
