Assessment Coordinator

RICS is a global professional membership body that sets standards for the built environment, including land, property, construction and infrastructure.

We support people to become qualified professionals through structured training and assessment. This includes routes such as Associate (AssocRICS) and Chartered (MRICS) membership, where candidates demonstrate their skills, experience and professional judgement through a formal assessment process.

Our teams play an important role in supporting this journey, working with candidates, assessors and panels to deliver a consistent and well-run assessment experience.
