Head of Business and Economics, Brighton College Vietnam, Vietnam Teacher

This school is based in Hanoi, Vietnam and is looking for a Head of Business and Economics

The academic success of Brighton is due to excellent, innovative and well-planned teaching. We are looking for individuals who foster a passion for learning and who can demonstrate an ability, and genuine desire, to develop pupils to their fullest potential. The successful candidate is likely to be an experienced practitioner with a proven track record of effective teaching, having obtained excellent public examination results with previous classes. Prior management experience is not a necessity, although a clear understanding of the challenges involved in leading an ambitious department is required.

Several members of our teaching staff have pursued different career paths and have made the move to teaching at a later point. We view this diversity as a strength. We seek candidates with a demonstrable ability to thrive in an intellectually invigorating environment. The ability to inspire children is key, as is a willingness to support the ambition and values of the school and to be involved in the breadth of College life. Successful candidates will be self-reliant and adaptable, with high levels of initiative. Candidates should have a strong academic record, including a good degree in a relevant subject.

As Head of Department, a key part of your role will be to ensure the smooth running of a department in which each member is valued and works together cohesively as well as setting the academic direction for your subject.
