The Scottish Qualifications Authority is Scotland’s national awarding and accreditation body. We are trusted to oversee thousands of qualifications that are available in schools, colleges and workplaces, not just in this country, but around the world.

  • Communicating in writing, or verbally, to a high standard, and being able to respond empathetically to complex information and sensitive situations
  • Building and maintaining effective relationships with colleagues and external stakeholders to ensure a high level of customer service

  • Must have operational, logistical or data planning experience gained in a complex, evolving environment
  • Strong line management experience within multi-disciplinary teams, with a track record of empowering and developing staff
  • Have strong IT and numeracy skills
