We offer you the opportunity to work alongside a great group of exam invigilators, with one of Stockholm School of Economics' most important tasks. As an exam invigilator you receive what is called an “intermittent employment”. This means that you are employed when needed and that you receive payment per hour. The hourly salary is a fixed and equal amount for all exam invigilators. Because the work is need based, the number of work hours varies for each invigilator depending on the hours available.
Applications are reviewed on an ongoing basis, and we encourage interested candidates to apply as soon as possible. The next training and onboarding session for new invigilators will take place in early August.
Please submit your application through the recruitment system, including your CV and a short introduction outlining your interest in the role and your availability during examination periods.
Please note that we are recruiting a limited number of new invigilators for the upcoming training and onboarding session. As the need for invigilators varies throughout the year, applications may also be considered for future recruitment rounds.
The Examinations Office is part of the Stockholm School of Economics and is responsible for the administration of centrally coordinated examinations. Each year, we organize more than 300 examinations across five examination periods: October, December/January, March, May/June, and August.
