- Have a strong awareness of your surroundings both within and outside of the car
- Use a tablet to record results during tests, maintaining accurate records
- Assess the competence of driver’s undertaking practical driving tests, evaluating their ability to drive safely and responsibly under varying road and traffic conditions. Ensure that only those who meet the required standards are granted a driving license
- Hold difficult conversations with the driver and deliver driving test outcomes sensitively, clearly, and professionally
As well as carrying out driving tests you’ll be collaborating with colleagues, discussing the current local traffic conditions on test routes and finding alternatives if there are problems like roadworks, and sharing ideas about how to improve the service for customers as well light admin such as writing up feedback for test candidates, checking your schedule and answering customer queries.
At all times, our Driving Examiners uphold impartiality, professionalism, and integrity, and act as a role model for the DVSA and Civil Service.
