We thank you for your interest in Shekou International School (SIS). We seek interest from dynamic and committed teachers and leaders for the future. Successful applicants will have the opportunity to become part of a highly motivated professional staff and community living in one of the most vibrant cities in Asia.

We prefer teachers who have full certification and licenses. For primary teachers, a master’s degree in education or teaching is highly desirable. At the middle and high school levels, a master’s degree in the specific discipline to be taught is preferred. Qualification, experience, or training in EAL is beneficial for all teachers. As an IB World School offering the IB PYP, IB MYP IB DP, we value experience in this framework.

While every effort is made to coordinate the applications of teaching couples, it is strongly recommended that each partner submit a separate application.

The SIS community is close-knit and dedicated to continuous improvement. Our teachers and administrators work in highly integrated collaborative teams. Expectations are high, and the opportunities for professional development are rich and significant. We are committed to providing a supportive environment where everyone is encouraged to grow and learn. Compensation is competitive, with excellent earning and saving potential.

Our school is in one of China's most dynamic, modern cities, directly across the bay from Hong Kong. Located just 30 minutes from the Shenzhen and Hong Kong airports, travel to all parts of Asia and the world is convenient. Living standards are high, with all amenities available and convenient. Applicants should have relevant experience and a desire to be active in a school committed to excellence.
