Working at UWCSEA

There are around 1,200 teaching, educational support, administrative and operations staff are employed across both UWCSEA campuses in Singapore, who work together with 1,300 allied staff. Our UWCSEA Community Agreements underpin and guide interactions between all our community members each day.

In much the same way that we consider all applications from qualified students, we welcome applications from prospective colleagues who will contribute to our diverse community; for example, first language English is not a requirement for any role unless otherwise stated; nor is IB experience a requirement for teaching roles unless specified. 

Our Leadership Standards are applicable to all staff in the context of their roles, while all teachers are guided by the UWCSEA Teaching Standards.

Our entire workforce, including allied employees, are guided by our Safeguarding Code of Conduct and required to complete appropriate training. 

All incoming staff are welcomed via a comprehensive onboarding programme, tailored to the job and the campus community you are joining.

New teaching staff joining us in August each year have an extensive orientation programme, both professional and personal, to help those who are new to Singapore settle in. This includes professional workshops to introduce our Guiding Statements and the five elements of the UWCSEA Learning Programme, which all staff contribute to. We'll also take you through our Teaching Standards and provide information on College-wide initiatives such as Teaching for DEIJ.
