AQA makes a considerable impact within the world of education, creating examination and support materials throughout each exam series.

You’ll be joining a supportive and collaborative team, working closely with subject experts and colleagues across the business. This is a hands-on role where attention to detail really matters – perfect for someone who enjoys maintaining high standards with the customer firmly in mind.

We’re looking for someone with: 

• Meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to quality 

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills 

• Strong organisational and prioritisation skills 

• The ability to maintain consistent standards under time constraints

Contract details: 

• Hourly rate: £13.75 per hour 

• Dates: ASAP – end of July 

• Hours: 35 hours per week (Monday to Friday, 9am–5pm) 

• Location: AQA Manchester, based on the University of Manchester campus, hybrid working 

From day one, we’ll make sure you’re fully equipped and supported to succeed. And while you’re with us, you’ll be opening doors to future opportunities too – approximately 50% of our roles are filled internally by current AQA employees. 

If you’re passionate about quality assurance, detail-driven and keen to make a difference in education, we’d love to hear from you.
