Work in Schools Internationally

Take advantage of the Council of International Schools (CIS) Educator Recruitment Service and discover a world of exciting career possibilities.

For those with a sense of adventure, a career in international education can be a uniquely rewarding experience, both professionally and personally. Broaden your horizon and become immersed in a different culture and environment. You will no doubt make many new friends and forge life-lasting ties as you join an engaged global community of educators. International schools, by mission and by model, promote international awareness, knowledge, understanding and inclusion. Keep up-to-date with current educational practices by participating in rich and varied professional development programs which are common benefits of working at an international school as are modern teaching resources and technology. International schools offer comprehensive salary and benefits packages that may provide higher remuneration than that offered by national or state schools.
