Job Description

Why do we exist? What do we do?

The quality of school education available to students from low-income communities across India is abysmal. Their chances of attending college or building a career are significantly lower than their high-income peers, condemning them to a life without voice or choice. iTeach was born in 2015 to challenge this status quo and create a level playing field for ALL children.

We run free and high-impact schools and an exceptional college-to-career program for the most disadvantaged students in Pune and Navi Mumbai. We are known for our world-class professional development, our result-oriented team culture, and our student-centric school design. Read more about us at http://iteachschools.org.

iTeach's founding belief is "first who, then what", - which means that we put all our bets on our people, making this role vastly important to the organisation and the student's success. If our people have a fantastic experience each day, each year, we will get to our ambitious vision of levelling the playing field for all children.
