7 International Schools Hiring Right Now — May 2026

If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to make your next international school move, this week has some strong options. From Western Europe to East Asia to Central Asia, here are seven schools currently hiring on ISC.


Hangzhou International School — 2 vacancies

Hangzhou, China

Hangzhou sits an hour from Shanghai and offers a noticeably lower cost of living with a high quality of life. ISC members who have worked in the area frequently highlight the city’s cycling culture, excellent food scene, and relative ease of navigating compared to China’s larger cities. Two positions are currently open at Hangzhou International School — worth a look if China is on your radar but you’d prefer somewhere less frenetic than Beijing or Shanghai.

Leipzig, Germany

Taejon Christian International School — 4 vacancies

Daejeon, South Korea

The most openings this week go to TCIS in Daejeon, South Korea. South Korea remains one of the most popular destinations for international teachers — excellent infrastructure, strong salaries, safe cities, and a food culture that converts almost everyone. Daejeon is South Korea’s science and research hub and often gets overlooked in favour of Seoul, which means lower costs and a tighter-knit expat community. Four vacancies is a significant hiring round.

Haileybury Almaty — 2 vacancies

Almaty, Kazakhstan

Haileybury is a well-established British curriculum brand and their Almaty campus is one of the more sought-after postings in Central Asia.

International School Carinthia — 2 vacancies

Klagenfurt, Austria

Austria rarely disappoints. International School Carinthia is located in Klagenfurt, in the southern Austrian region of Carinthia — lake district, alpine access, and a pace of life that’s hard to argue with. Two positions open. European postings like this tend to move quickly, so worth checking early.

International School of Paris — 4 vacancies

Paris, France

Four vacancies at the International School of Paris. Paris needs little introduction as a posting — though it’s worth noting that ISC members highlight both the extraordinary lifestyle and the higher cost of living relative to some other European cities. If you’re considering it, Isca can give you a summary of what teachers say about the package and the day-to-day reality.

Before you apply — do your research

Every school listed above has a profile on ISC with comments from teachers who have worked there. Before you submit your CV, it’s worth spending 10 minutes reading what educators say about the school culture, management, and benefits package.

You can also ask Isca — our AI assistant trained on 55,000+ teacher reviews — specific questions like:

  • “What do teachers say about the management at TCIS?”
  • “Is the salary at Haileybury Almaty competitive for Kazakhstan?”
  • “What is life like for a teacher in Klagenfurt?”

Isca gives you a synthesised answer in seconds rather than scrolling through dozens of reviews.
