An Education Leader listening warmly to a school student

Join The Genius Team: Role For Teachers

At Genius, we don’t recruit people who are merely looking for a job; we’re looking for people who want to make a real difference in a child’s life and who believe in the power of education to do just that.

Qualified teacher? Explore educational leadership

The Education Leader role is full-time salaried employment with training, never an internship. It offers an alternative career path for qualified teachers: connect with students to assess their needs, collaborate with the team of instructors delivering the student’s academic programme, work with students’ teachers and psychologists to ensure their success, and have a real impact by coaching and mentoring students individually.

“After finishing my PGCE and spending a year teaching at a high school, I realized that my individual impact was not as significant as I had hoped, and that my efforts weren’t being rewarded financially. Transitioning to the Education Leader role has given me the chance to apply the knowledge I gained from my PGCE while focusing on the students (and not classroom management and admin), and earning much more!”
Bronwyn Britz · Education Leader, completed her PGCE in SP/FET English
