You’ll guide candidates from induction through to award, assess their knowledge and practice, and ensure all assessment decisions meet SQA standards. As an Internal Verifier, you’ll also support fellow assessors, uphold quality assurance processes, and help maintain our excellent reputation with SQA, SDS, and Education Scotland.

This is a home-based role with national travel, offering flexibility, autonomy, and the chance to work collaboratively with a passionate and supportive L&D team.

 

Our candidates are spread across Scotland, from the Borders to the Highlands, so flexibility is key. You’ll mainly support learners in your region but may occasionally travel further afield. Quarterly in-person standardisation meetings will take place at our Aberdeen office, and you’ll also attend bi-annual Learning & Development team meetings in Widnes
