Any changes in the responsibilities of the role will be determined in consultation with management and within the framework of annual objectives.
All applications should be submitted through TES by 13/04/2026 and must include: a statement of interest (highlighting personal and professional qualities), a CV or résumé, and the contact details of three referees (compiled into a single PDF).
Due to recent changes in Swiss law, obtaining work permits for non-EU citizens has become notably challenging for international schools like Le Rosey. Therefore, applicants who do not possess EU passports or Swiss work permits should be aware that this may diminish their chances of being shortlisted. Nonetheless, we will seriously consider all applications, and if the role and application quality give us hope for a successful outcome in what can be a lengthy administrative process, we are willing to pursue it.
