This role could be filled by either a PGR student or non-student. The position is not open to current Lancaster Undergraduate (UG) or Postgraduate Taught (PGT) students.
The Student Programme Administration Exams Team are currently recruiting a pool of Invigilators to join our bank of staff supporting the administration of examinations for the 2026 assessment period.
As an Invigilator you will work as part of a team to ensure that examinations run smoothly and in accordance with Lancaster University guidelines. Ideal candidates will be committed team players and have a professional attitude.
In addition to our main venues, we also seek invigilators to work with students with adapted exam requirements – this will primarily involve invigilating individual students on a one-to-one basis, or invigilating a small group of students who require access to a computer. Please indicate on your application whether you would like to be considered for either main venue invigilation, adapted arrangement invigilation, or both.
The work will be varied with hours split into two daily sessions (Monday to Saturday, though Saturdays will be kept to a minimum).
Examinations take place across Lancaster’s Bailrigg campus and you may be required to travel quickly between venues to ensure that examination schedules are adhered to.
Full-time and part-time/casual applicants are welcome.
No prior experience is required as training will be provided, however, candidates with previous experience of working in Higher Education or with invigilation experience will be prioritised.
