Required IELTS Examiners - British Council in Kuwait

The British Council in Kuwait is recruiting suitably qualified and experienced professionals to join its freelance team of IELTS Examiners. IELTS is the world’s proven English test.
Over 7000 organisations and more than 1.7 million test takers around the world trust and recognise IELTS as a secure, valid and reliable indicator of true-to-life ability to communicate in English for education, immigration and professional accreditation. IELTS is jointly managed by British Council, IDP: IELTS Australia and the University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations (Cambridge ESOL) through more than 800 test centres and locations in over 130 countries.
We are looking for applications from prospective examiners (speaking and writing) willing to join our expanding IELTS examination operations in Kuwait.
IELTS tests take place across our network of test venues up to three times a month. For more general information for test takers and users, please refer to the IELTS website www.ielts.org or the British Council Kuwait website www.britishcouncil.org/takeielts.
