One of the leading schools in the Middle East, the Amman Baccalaureate School (ABS) is a pioneering, bilingual IB World school with a rich heritage and impressive reputation for innovation. Situated in vibrant Western Amman, the ABS blends Arab heritage with internationalism, offering a first-class, holistic education to 1175 students aged 4 to 18. The ABS was the first school in the Middle East to be authorised to offer all four IB programmes. The school celebrated its 40th anniversary last year and has recently benefitted from significant investment in the school’s facilities.
The Board of Trustees, chaired by HRH Princess Sumaya bint El Hassan, now seeks to appoint an experienced, ambitious, commercially minded and creative Director of Admissions and Marketing. The post-holder will provide strategic leadership for student recruitment and marketing, including internal and external communications, in order to enhance the school’s position, reputation, student numbers and brand. A key part of this role is to oversee the admissions process and be the point of contact with prospective families.
The Director of Admissions and Marketing holds a key role within the Leadership Team, working closely with and reporting directly to the Principal. The post-holder will be heavily involved in both strategic and operational matters, acting as a key figurehead and outward-facing presence for the school as well as guiding, motivating and leading the Admissions and Marketing departments.
We are looking for someone with experience of the admissions process, preferably within an all through independent school, and who can represent ABS with a confident and professional approach to prospective families.
An excellent remuneration package is offered, in addition to an expat allowance if relevant, to reflect the seniority of the position.
Applications should be received by Wednesday 7 December 2022 and the first round of interviews will take place in December.
ABS is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be asked for enhanced safeguarding checks.

The Amman Baccalaureate School (ABS) is a private, fee-paying day school, licensed by the Jordanian Ministry of Education. It is coeducational and prepares its students for the International Baccalaureate Diploma and Career-related Programme and courses as school leaving qualifications. In addition to providing an academic education of high quality, the school attaches considerable importance to creative, physical and community service activities, and offers a wide and developing range of facilities and opportunities in these areas.
ABS was founded in 1981 with the aim of providing a bilingual education that would meet, in quality and breadth, the highest international standards, whilst remaining firmly rooted in the Arab heritage. At the same time, the school has increasingly attracted students from the international community who wish to take advantage of the opportunity offered in the Middle Years School (MYP) and the IB College (Diploma Programme/Career-related Programme) to pursue an education in English that, nonetheless, sustains close contact with the culture of the host country.
The Amman Baccalaureate School is a school where modern educational theory and practice are implemented and enthusiastically embraced. In its officially recognised role as a 'pioneer school', ABS pilots new material, methods and approaches, and so paves the way for other schools to follow. Emphasis on bilingualism at every stage promotes knowledge of different cultures, traditions and values, and this fosters openness, understanding and tolerance.
The ABS has a unique curriculum model for a bilingual (Arabic/English) Primary Years Programme (PYP) and is amongst a select few schools worldwide to offer all four IB Programmes (PYP, MYP, DP, CP)
