We are a small, growing private school in Newmarket, Auckland, seeking a passionate and experienced mathematics teacher to join our dedicated team.

The school caters for students in Years 9 to 13 and offers small class sizes, normally fewer than 15 students per class, enabling teachers to provide highly personalised support and build strong learning relationships with every student.

This is an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic educator who thrives in a collaborative environment, enjoys being part of a school’s growth journey, and is willing to roll up their sleeves and contribute wherever needed. We are looking for someone who is committed to helping students achieve their potential and playing an active role in the wider life of the school.

We are seeking an outstanding mathematics teacher with significant experience teaching senior mathematics. Experience teaching the Cambridge Curriculum through to Advanced and Further Mathematics is preferred but not essential.

The successful applicant will:

• Hold a recognised teaching qualification and current New Zealand teacher registration.
• Have full working rights in New Zealand.
• Be committed to academic excellence and positive student outcomes.
• Demonstrate significant experience teaching senior mathematics, preferably (although not essential) within the Cambridge Curriculum through to Advanced and Further Mathematics.
• Work collaboratively as part of a small, collegial team.
• Be flexible, adaptable, and willing to take on additional responsibilities as the school grows.
• Ideally be able to teach one or more additional subjects alongside mathematics. Applicants should state these subjects in their application.
