About Noon

Radically Changing the Way People Learn!

Noon Academyis the leading edtech platform in the Middle East, with over 12 million students and teachers using our app to learn, teach, and collaborate. We have recently raised $41 million in Series B funding to expand our reach and impact in the region and beyond. We are on a mission to transform the physical classroom experience by introducing our highly engaging social, group-based learning and AI to make learning fun and improve learning efficacy. Our ultimate goal is to provide access to the best teachers to every student even if that teacher is only available virtually. We believe we can do this if we blend AI, peer-to-peer learning, and a carefully designed physical space.

Now: We’re laser-focused on reinventing schools in Saudi Arabia. We’re accelerating rapidly, well-funded, and profitable.
Office: Full-time, Riyadh-based. We’ve got a sweet office near the Boulevard, and we’d love to have you in it.

About the role

Noon runs hybrid classrooms across Saudi Arabia: a remote star teacher leads the session, students sit together in a physical classroom, and an in-room facilitator keeps the room working. It's a genuinely different way to teach, and it only works if someone with real classroom authority is shaping what gets taught and how it lands.

That's this role. We're looking for a Head Teacher for the National track Math & Phys — someone with a decade or more of actual teaching behind them, who has coached other teachers, and who wants their judgement to reach thousands of students a day instead of thirty.

This is an academic role, not a management one. You won't run a department's admin or manage headcount. You'll decide what the curriculum should emphasize, hold the quality bar on how it's built, coach the teachers delivering it, and stay in the classroom yourself often enough to know whether any of it is actually working.

How the role splits

Area

Share

What it means day to day

Curriculum & term planning

50%

Working with the design team to decide the curriculum itself — which topics to cover, what needs more weight and what needs less, and how the term and year plan fits together. You review the final lesson once it's built in the system. You don't build it yourself; that's the Design Lead's job.

Coaching delivery teachers

30%

Coaching the teachers who actually present sessions to students — how to deliver the content, hold a hybrid room, and keep students engaged through a screen. Observation, feedback, and follow-up that changes practice.

Delivering lessons

20%

Teaching sessions yourself. Not as a regular teacher on the roster — it's to stay close to the content, see how it lands in practice, and hear directly from students.

What you'll own

• The academic quality of Math & Phys curriculum across Middle School and High School on the National track — topic sequencing, weighting, depth, and alignment to what students are actually assessed on.

• Term and year plans, built with the Design Leads and signed off by you before they go into production.

• Final review of built lessons before they reach students — you're the last academic gate.

• Coaching and development of the delivery teaching bench for your subjects, in partnership with Learning Excellence's observation and evaluation cycle.

• Reading the assessment signal — Diagnostics, Exit Tickets, End-of-Chapter results, and Learning Gain — and translating it into what changes next term.

• Being the academic voice in cross-functional conversations with Design, Learning Excellence, Product and Data.

What we're looking for

Must have

• Minimum 10 years of actual classroom teaching experience, with genuine depth across both middle school and high school.

• 3–5 years managing or coaching other teachers — as a head of department, subject lead, mentor, or in a formal coaching role.

• Familiarity with Saudi national assessments — Qudurat, Tahsili, and Nafes.

• Strong digital capability and real comfort teaching in a digital environment. This is a hybrid classroom, delivered through a platform — not an occasional PowerPoint.

• Fluent Arabic; professional English.

• Based in Riyadh, or ready to relocate. Saudi nationals with KSA teaching experience strongly preferred.

Nice to have

• A coaching certification or completion of a formal teacher training program

• International curriculum experience — not only the local curriculum
