Would you like to be involved in supporting the production of City & Guilds' new reform qualifications in Electrical Installation?

We are looking for Associates to write, support and quality assure the production of the Electrical Installation assessments with the first assessment from September 2025 and beyond.

As a Content Production Associate for Technical Occupational Entry (OTQ) you will be directly involved in the creation and maintenance of x3 Theory exams which are onscreen multiple-choice tests, that will be available on-demand.

The Role Profile outlines the expectations of these roles, and the Person Specification outlines the experience we're looking for someone to have as a production associate.

All activity must take place within the UK with the potential to travel to London for meetings when required, although it is anticipated that most of the assessment production activity will take place remotely.

As a Content Production associate, you will play a pivotal role in the creation, review, and quality assurance of our Electrical Installation OTQ assessments. This position requires a deep understanding of electrical installation, strong writing skills, and meticulous attention to detail. These roles hold responsibility for developing assessment materials, revising them to ensure clarity and accuracy and scrutinising them to meet standards. You may also be required to attend assessment material evaluation meetings.

Reviser:

* Review the initial draft assessment materials, along with mark scheme/marking grids checking that the responses/outputs required are appropriate.
* Produce a report which comments on the suitability of individual questions/tasks/briefs, the provisional assessment as a whole and the mark scheme/grid.
* Participate in the Assessment Material Evaluation Committee (AMEC) meeting to discuss any changes required to the material.
* Attend training required for the role as requested by City & Guilds.

Scrutineer:

* Review the final drafts of Assessment material without reference to the mark schemes
* Check assessments can be answered or completed in the time allowed and that there are no errors or omissions
* Ensure the assessment questions comply with the syllabus and test specification
* Review the mark scheme to ensure that the marks given are identical to those on the question paper/Review guidance to ensure expectations of assessments are clear
* Provide sign-off of final version and return it within the specified time when required
* Undertake to offer the services set out above within the specified times and in accordance with City & Guilds' procedures.

Independent reviewer:

* Review the final draft of assessment materials as a subject matter expert
* Provide feedback on findings from review of the materials
* Respond to requests for further clarification on findings
* Attend meetings and training as required

When completing your application, it is essential you read the person specification fully and map your application to show where you meet the requirements set out. Please note applications that do not demonstrate meeting the person specification may be declined or delayed. We look forward to receiving your application.

Applications will be reviewed on an on-going basis between now and 30th November, and suitable applicants will be invited to attend training.

In your application, please note that you will be considered for one specific role within the production associate roles (Assessment Writer, Reviser, Scrutineer, or Independent Reviewer), based on your skills, experience, and the needs of the project. You will not be expected to perform all of these roles. City & Guilds will assess your application and match you with the most suitable position.
