Welcome to Avenues São Paulo!

Since our doors opened in August, we've been on a mission to provide a truly transformative educational experience. Through immersive English language learning and dynamic interdisciplinary projects, we prepare our students to become future worldwise leaders uniquely equipped to understand and solve global-scale problems.

As part of the Nord Anglia Education network, we're proud to stand alongside Avenues New York, shaping the future of education together.

With a vibrant community of over students, ranging from as young as 18 months old through to graduation, our campus buzzes with a culture of innovation, creativity, collaboration, and state-of-the-art technology.

Join us as we embark on a journey of lifelong learning and growth and discover why there's no place quite like Avenues São Paulo.

The Opportunity

Our schedule, designed for creative collaboration and inquiry-based learning, allows faculty to design deep learning experiences for students. Associate Division Heads are Avenues leaders dedicated to directly supporting the success, growth and impact of our talented, diverse, and world-wise faculty. Avenues seeks a daring, future-wise educator, whose personal mission aligns with ours, to join us as an Associate Division Head. The ADH will join a talented leadership team who ensure that the Avenues secondary division is an extraordinarily engaging place to work, a laboratory of deeper learning for all, and a thriving community.

What You Will Do

• Ensure and support faculty success: the teachers you lead feel deeply engaged and effectively supported to impact students, develop professionally, and thrive.
• Nurture teachers' engagement: faculty consistently feel trust, connection, belonging, and clarity, leading to a deep sense of engagement and fulfillment.
• Support teachers' impact: faculty produce transformational student learning while growing and developing professionally.
• Be a divisional and organizational leader, serving in a leadership team with shared ownership for the success of the division and of Avenues as a whole.
• Enable innovation, by nurturing an environment in which faculty take risks and improve on existing practices.
• Drive deep student learning, guiding faculty to create authentic, inquiry-oriented learning experiences, while meeting each student's individual needs.
• Nurture a thriving culture of trust, learning and shared purpose among the whole community of adults and students.
• Help build exceptional teams of faculty through effective managing, coaching, feedback, hiring and assessing faculty growth and impact.
• Collaborate intensively with diverse colleagues such as deans, faculty, other ADHs, and others to effectively support Avenues students, parents, and school community.
• Lead projects, take on new challenges, and be an "all-in" leader committed to create a New School of Thought.

Who We Are Looking For

You bring all or most of the following:

• Superb ability as a teacher, and a deep understanding of high-quality instruction in grades 6-12; expertise in inquiry-driven and interdisciplinary project based learning is a great asset.
• STEM-related content expertise is preferred.
• Instructional leadership skills, to guide teachers to grow in their teaching and create deeper learning for students.
• People management ability, to lead teams in which teachers are engaged in their work, constantly growing and accomplishing great things together.
• A missionary zeal for transforming education, and for changing the world through it.
• An innovative, problem-solving approach, including in ambiguous situations that require figuring out new solutions rather than following established paths.
• Intellectual curiosity and mindset of continuous learning and growth.
• Skillful at working across lines of difference in an intercultural team.
