Assessment Officer and data-driven administrator with 13+ years in higher education.
What I'm looking for
I am a highly organised and results-driven Administrative and Assessment Professional with over 13 years of experience in higher education administration, assessment coordination, records management, and data analysis.
As an Assessment Officer, I coordinate internal and international examinations (including CIPS, AAT, ICDL and University of Bolton programmes), secure confidential examination materials, and manage moderation processes. I develop and publish examination timetables, schedule and supervise invigilators, coordinate online examinations, and produce examination performance reports using data verification to improve accuracy.
In my Acting Assessment Coordinator role, I led operational planning and budgeting for the Assessment Division, supervised assessment operations and staff, and oversaw examination marking and publication of results. I also served as Secretariat to the Main Assessment Board, coordinated arrangements for students with special needs, and ensured compliance with institutional policies and quality assurance standards.
Earlier, I managed daily administrative operations as a Church Administrator, handling confidential membership records, official correspondence, calendars, meetings, events, and document management. I also worked as a Data Analyst, collecting and analysing organisational data, maintaining database integrity, and supporting electronic submissions—reinforcing my strong analytical approach and commitment to professional integrity.
