Job Description

Their future matters. So does yours.

Teaching & leadership roles in Dubai with Nord Anglia Education

16 January 2027 at Swiss International Scientific School Dubai and Nord Anglia International School Dubai

The student who finally gets it. The colleague who becomes a friend. The lesson that takes an unexpected turn and becomes the highlight of everyone’s week. These are the moments that make a school life. And yours matters just as much.

At Nord Anglia Education, you’ll have the support of a global family of 90+ schools, opportunities to grow, and the freedom to make a difference.

Join us in Dubai on Saturday 16 January 2027 for an in-person teaching and leadership recruitment event for vacancies at our two outstanding Dubai schools:

• Swiss International Scientific School Dubai – IB curriculum
• Nord Anglia International School Dubai – British curriculum

Meet school leaders, explore the campus, and interview for a role on the day.

Opportunities are open across all subjects and phases, including senior leadership.

Choose the school that feels right for you and apply to attend. Both events run simultaneously, so you can attend one.

On the day:

If you’re invited to attend, you can expect your day to include:

• Registration, with a welcome from the principal and a guided tour of the campus
• A showcase from the principal and senior leaders on the school, its curriculum, and what it’s like to work there
• Time to meet the teams and departments you could be working with
• A scheduled 1:1 interview with the leadership panel for your role
• A faster route to an offer compared to a multi-stage remote process

What we’re looking for:

• A recognised teaching qualification or licence for your subject or phase (for SLT roles: relevant leadership experience)
• Classroom or leadership experience (we’ll go through what each role needs at interview) as well as experience with, or real interest in, the relevant curriculum
• Strong teaching or leadership experience in your subject or phase, and real care for your students’ progress and day-to-day wellbeing, not just their results
• Availability to attend in person in Dubai on 16 January 2027
• Willingness to relocate to Dubai (if applicable) – we provide visa and work permit sponsorship
• Readiness and commitment to grow with the school long-term
• Willingness to complete our standard safeguarding and background checks

What to bring: a printed copy of your CV and photo ID.
