Apprenticeship Workplace Assessor

An exciting opportunity has arisen for applications to an Apprenticeship Workplace Assessor post in the cross-faculty apprenticeship team at Middlesex University.

This role will support apprenticeship programmes across the University. The Faculty Apprenticeship Team is responsible for managing the systems and processes that support around 1,500 apprentices and their employers who choose an apprenticeship at Middlesex to develop their staff.

Workplace Assessors work as part of a wider team to deliver the University Apprenticeship Strategy by promoting an excellent learner experience that is fully compliant with the Department for Education (DfE) funding rules. Workplace Assessors add additional value to our apprenticeship journey by facilitating reflective discussions with apprentices to embed learning into practice and to promote the development of excellent portfolios of evidence for their end-point assessment (EPA).

They are additionally responsible for the monitoring of compliance aspects across the apprentice journey. This includes scheduling, managing and servicing Progress Reviews, monitoring progression and retention, and ensuring that engagement with the programme is compliant with DfE funding guidance. They ensure apprentice learning and wellbeing through appropriate signposting to relevant learning enhancement, welfare or safeguarding support.

We are committed to supporting the development and growth of staff and expect that this position will provide strong learning opportunities.
