Join Amity International School in Abu Dhabi: Shape Young Minds as Our Social Worker

At Amity International School, we believe in nurturing not just academic excellence, but the whole child. We're seeking a passionate and skilled counselor to join our vibrant educational community and make a meaningful impact on our students' lives.

Our Vision for Student Support As our school counselor, you'll be at the heart of our student support system, creating personalized strategies that help each student thrive. Your role will involve conducting thoughtful psychological assessments, fostering emotional well-being, and serving as a crucial bridge between students, teachers, and families. We're particularly excited about building comprehensive mental health awareness programs and developing innovative approaches to build student resilience.

What You'll Bring to Our Community: We're looking for someone who brings both expertise and heart to this role. You should have a Master's degree in Social Services or Psychology, coupled with at least two years of experience in a school setting. Your understanding of adolescent psychology and multicultural educational environments will be invaluable. We value professionals who are well-versed in advanced counseling techniques, trauma-informed care, and modern behavioral intervention strategies.

Making a Difference Together: Your impact will be measured through the positive changes you bring to our community - from enhancing student resilience to creating a more integrated and supportive school environment. We're committed to proactive mental health support and reducing academic stress, and we need your expertise to achieve these goals.

What We Offer: We value our staff as much as our students. You'll receive a competitive salary package that includes a housing allowance and comprehensive medical coverage. We're committed to your growth too, offering a professional development budget and exciting international networking opportunities.

The Ideal Match: We're seeking someone special - a professional who combines exceptional interpersonal skills with innovative thinking. You should be culturally sensitive, committed to continuous learning, and able to adapt your communication style to different situations. Most importantly, you should share our passion for supporting young people in their journey of growth and discovery.

Join Our Team: If this role speaks to you, we'd love to hear your story. Please submit your application through the TES website, including a focused two-page CV and your professional certifications. We'll need two professional references and will conduct background verification for safety assurance.

Our selection process is thorough but friendly, involving initial screening, competency assessment, and either an in-person interview in Abu Dhabi or a virtual meeting, followed by reference checks and final evaluation.

While we appreciate every application, due to the volume we receive, we'll be able to contact only shortlisted candidates for interview scheduling. However, we value every professional who shows interest in joining our community.
