Contract Type: Part Time, Permanent, Term Time Only
Start Date: January 2027
Education Setting: Educational Organisation
Job Category: Non-Teaching Staff
Location: London
The Assessment & Quality Assurance Lead will oversee and coordinate the assessment and quality assurance of Gateways’ vocational qualifications and its Functional Skills offer. Working closely with the Director of Education, the Exams Officer, vocational teachers and the wider education team, the postholder will ensure qualifications are delivered, assessed and quality assured in line with awarding organisation requirements. Gateways currently delivers a Pearson BTEC Level 2 Home Cooking Skills qualification, a VTCT Level 2 Hair and Beauty qualification, and on-demand Functional Skills qualifications in English and maths at Level 1 and Level 2. We plan to expand our vocational offer, particularly through additional BTEC qualifications, over the coming years.
Many of Gateways’ vocational teachers are experienced industry professionals rather than qualified teachers, and the postholder will guide and support them to meet the assessment, evidence, marking and quality assurance requirements of their qualifications. This is not a teaching role: its focus is on making sure the assessment and quality assurance systems of our qualifications are robust, compliant and consistently implemented
