Standards, Quality & Professional Practice You will be a champion for high standards in surveying education and professional practice. Provide technical input into qualification development and quality assurance Support the processes that protect the Sava School of Surveying's reputation and learner outcomes Identify where standards can be raised and challenge constructively where necessary 5.

Mentor and support learning, delivery and development colleagues Contribute to open days, virtual classrooms and internal initiatives Work collaboratively with the Managing Director on strategic direction Help build an organisation that is resilient, adaptive and ambitious Person Specification We are looking for a credible sector professional who wants to shape the future of surveying education.
