Your dream role is out there. We'd love to help you find it.

Teaching is a career that can really take you places. You can travel internationally and experience different cultures, all while developing your career. No matter where you long to teach or wherever you see yourself going, you can take your first step at the Tes International Jobs Fair.

It’s your chance to connect with a host of international schools, who are looking to hand-pick exceptional teachers, just like you. We understand it’s a big decision to teach overseas – it’s not just moving jobs, but moving your whole life – we’re here to inspire and connect you with the right opportunities.

To protect your health and the health of our partner schools, this event will be 100% virtual.

I attended the Tes event in March with the intention of finding a job abroad and was blown away by how good the event was in terms of organisation and information available to me. I came away with questions answered and several job offers.

How it works

Step 1

Register and complete CV
9 December - 9 January

Register and complete your digital CV

Step 2

Get matched image
03 - 16 January

Check out the schools and get matched with vacancies

Before the event, we’ll match your CV and the regions you're interested in working with vacancies the schools are recruiting for. Schools can then invite you to interviews during the event.  

The event may pique your interest in areas you haven't considered before, so we'll also give you the opportunity to share your CV with schools that were outside your initial preferences.

Step 3

Attend interviews image
