Job Description: Internal Quality Assurer (IQA)

We're looking for a detail-oriented and supportive Internal Quality Assurer who is passionate about maintaining high standards in education and training. You'll play a key role in ensuring that assessment practices across our accredited programmes are fair, consistent and compliant, whilst supporting our assessors to deliver the best possible outcomes for learners.

About Animal Antiks Group
