Summary
Are you passionate about raising standards, empowering others, and ensuring learners receive truly outstanding experiences? We’re looking for a dedicated Internal Quality Assurer (IQA) to support our growing Leadership & Management provision, someone who thrives on developing high quality teaching, learning and assessment and who genuinely wants to make a difference.
Why This Role Matters
Our Leadership programmes are expanding and we are committed to delivering qualifications that are meaningful, rigorous, and career defining. As our IQA, you’ll play a crucial role in ensuring every learner receives a first class experience and every assessor is supported to achieve excellence.
What You’ll Do
In this role, you will:
• Drive high quality standards across all Leadership & Management programmes
• Support, guide and develop assessors through constructive feedback and coaching
• Sample assessment decisions to ensure fairness, compliance and consistency
• Lead on standardisation activities and continuous improvement
• Work closely with the curriculum manager and awarding bodies to maintain outstanding quality
• Champion best practice, innovation and learner centred assessment
What We’re Looking For
• A qualified IQA (V1/IQA Award or equivalent)
• Experience in Leadership & Management qualifications (CMI, ILM, or similar)
• Someone who is supportive, solution focused and passionate about developing others
• Strong attention to detail and a commitment to excellence
• A team player who can bring energy, positivity, and professionalism to the role
Ready to Join a Team That Shares Your Passion?
If you’re excited by the opportunity to influence quality, drive high standards and support the development of future leaders, we’d love to hear from you.
All applications must be received by: Wednesday 25th February 2026
Interviews to be held: WC 16th March 2026
What you can expect from us - We care about your wellbeing so have a number of activities all year that provide support. However, time off is also important. We have a generous holiday scheme, the usual Bank Holidays, an additional 5 days at Christmas and 2 ‘ME’ days (where you can have a day off work and do whatever makes you happy) as well as an additional day on campus spent on wellbeing.
We have a range of benefits available to all staff including paid time off for emergencies (designed to support carers) and all our policies are enhanced further than statutory requirements. The College also contributes to your pension at a minimum of 20.9% (we contribute more for people in the Local Government Pension Scheme).
South Staffordshire College is an equal opportunities employer and welcomes applicants from all sections of the community.
We are committed to PREVENT and safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young adults and expect all staff to share this commitment.
This position is subject to an Enhanced Disclosure with child and barred list check.
