What the listing never says

  • No location or timezone policy stated, so a candidate cannot tell where they may work from. Scope clarity

The listing, marked up

Nothing in the wording of this listing tripped a check. The scores above still judge how complete and coherent it is.

Overall Purpose

The role exists to provide reliable, accurate and meaningful textile testing results that support teaching, learning and research within the University. The role holder ensures that tests are carried out correctly and consistently, so that the results can be trusted and used to understand the performance, properties and behaviour of textile materials and products.

How this was produced

Highlights are found by rule, not by a model: each one is a phrase matched at a known position, and every note is a template we wrote. The two scores come from a typed-decision model (Jev) that reads the listing against the official role definition and real listings for the same role, and returns probabilities rather than prose — it never writes any of the words on this page, and never chooses what to highlight.

Deterministic penalty applied to the HR score: 16 points (from 48 before penalties). Reviewed 24 Sep 2026.
