Summary

Senior Assessment Technical Developer – Permanent

Home based, GB

The organisation

CITB aims to lead the construction sector by example to ensure fairness, inclusion and respect for all. We seek to build a workforce that reflects Britain’s diverse population, and people from under-represented groups are encouraged to apply for vacancies. Our main objective is to create a culture that helps all our customers strive towards a workforce that is reflective of today’s society. Working for CITB gives you the opportunity to make a difference to the health and safety of the UK construction industry.

The role

Applications are welcomed for the role of Senior Assessment Technical Developer to join a professional, dynamic and forward-thinking group of technical developers within our Product Management team.

The CITB Product Management Team is responsible for many of the CITB key products, ensuring they are aligned to industry needs, have maximum impact, and continue to develop as the industry and technologies evolve. These products include a successful suite of health and safety courses, examinations, accompanying publications and health and safety tests. These products are aimed at operatives through to senior managers, supporting them with the skills needed to progress through the construction industry.

The role holder will take overall responsibility for the development and maintenance of all examination aspects of new and existing products within the CITB Health, Safety and Environment training portfolio.

You will manage a small team of assessment developers, and using your expertise in collaboration with other subject matter experts you will oversee and engage in the creation and delivery of suitable assessment learning outcomes and assessment criteria, focusing on reliability, validity and suitability. You will do this while always ensuring that these meet CITB’s strategic objectives, the construction industry’s needs and the relevant legislative and regulatory requirements.

You will be responsible for establishing assessment best practice within the team, and for setting consistent accuracy, development and process standards. Communicating with stakeholders and managing product development groups are key elements of this role, so advanced written and verbal skills alongside accuracy and attention to detail are essential.

This role would be suitable for an individual with a proven track record in assessment, product development and leadership in an assessment environment, who can provide evidence of collaboration with multiple internal and external stakeholders. A construction industry background is not essential.
