About the role

We’re seeking an Independent End Point Assessor (IEPA) for the Dental Nurse and Oral Health Practitioner standards to join our End Point Assessment team. As an IEPA, you’ll play an integral part in the success of apprentices by supporting them in taking the assessments for their apprenticeship and grading their assessments. This is therefore a great opportunity to use your professional skills and knowledge whilst developing others.

Added to this, you’ll be working at the forefront of End Point Assessment, as NCFE works with Independent Training Providers, Further Education Colleges, and Employment Providers to drive valuable partnerships across the developing world of Apprenticeships and EPA.

How you’ll make an impact:

• Delivering EPA in line with the Dental Nurse and Oral Health Practitioner Level 4 standards
• Utilising NCFE Apprenticeship Services EPA platform to record EPAs and interact with apprentices
• Attending standardisation events to ensure quality, compliance, and consistency
• Communicating with apprentices, ITPs, and employers on EPA and grading

We’d love to hear from you if you offer the following:

• A recognised Assessor qualification
• Occupational competence across the standard, i.e., a General Dental Council registrant with appropriate post-registration clinical experience and up-to-date continuing professional development
• Recent relevant experience of the occupation/sector to at least the same level as a Dental Nurse
• Experience of producing clear and accurate reports
• A driving licence and flexibility to travel across your area

Why work as a flexible worker for NCFE?

Our flexible workforce provides supportive quality assurance to ensure that learners taking NCFE qualifications are getting the best education possible. If you become a flexible worker with us, you’ll choose how to fit your work around your other personal and professional commitments – making this a great opportunity to make a difference in a way that suits you.

You’ll receive full training and the materials, tools, or equipment needed to ensure you’re able to complete your duties in line with NCFE requirements, with the ability to take on a flexible worker contract alongside other work, without the need to be registered as self-employed.

All applicants will be expected to adhere to NCFE’s behavioural framework and to uphold our core values.
