About the job:

As a Data Analyst (DA) Independent Assessor, you will use your expertise and experience to help shape new industry talent by conducting EPAs.

Apprentices will submit projects and portfolios of evidence for you to review; you will use these as the basis for your interviews and questions when conducting assessments using the grading documentation provided. A key output of your role is to provide clear and constructive feedback to the training provider.

As industry and technologies move quickly, so should your development. That is why outside of the regular day-to-day assessments we allow our employees time to develop through regular Continuous Personal Development (CPD). Your expertise will also be used to help develop resources and projects for EPA across the business; this will be done by working with our product team to develop new, fair and robust assessments.
