The office, position, or role of being an assessor; the period of time someone serves as an assessor.
From assessor + -ship (noun suffix indicating position, office, or relationship). Assessor comes from Latin assessor (one who sits beside, a judge's assistant), from assidere (to sit beside).
The -ship suffix creates nouns for positions and roles—like 'presidency' or 'citizenship.' Assessorship refers to the actual job itself, so someone might 'hold an assessorship' or 'discharge the duties of assessorship.' It's formal administrative language!
