Stile is all about two things:

• Helping tomorrow's leaders find a passion for science and scientific thinking, and
• Working with a group of awesome people.

If you’re a high school science teacher, the name Stile might ring a bell.

With an ever-expanding community of Stile schools in South Australia, we are looking for a passionate science teacher to join the team in Adelaide.

About Stile

We are a global, rapidly growing EdTech company, run by the people who started and own the company. We’re here to build something real and enduring. A company that in years to come we look back on and are proud of what we achieved, and how we achieved it.

Every week over 200,000 students globally, and their teachers, use Stile and we expect this to more than double in the next couple of years in line with our international expansion strategy. At Stile, we create world-class resources for science teachers, whom we call superheroes, (think videos, lesson plans, simulations, activities and more!) that spark excitement and curiosity in every student. At the most basic level, we get kids thinking critically about the world around them.

About the role

This position is perfect for a teacher looking to expand their impact beyond the classroom and enhance the education of tens of thousands of students. With a combination of working from home and visiting schools, it’s also ideal for anyone looking for a more flexible working environment. (That’s right - you can grab a snack without waiting for a bell to sound!)

This is a sales role, but it’s a sales role like no other. It’s fun, light and centred around a genuine mission to better science education. If you don’t have any sales experience, we’ll teach you everything you need to know.

How you’ll spend your time

• Visiting schools and discussing best practice science teaching with like-minded educators.
  Deliver PD to teachers and apply your classroom experience and pedagogical expertise to consult with faculty and school leaders. Mostly these schools will be in Adelaide, but you may occasionally find yourself booking regional trips too.
• Building community.
  Building relationships with those in the local STEM community is key to being successful in this role. For this reason, you’ll be in regular attendance at local events and conferences.
• Continuing to hone your own skills and knowledge.

We’re life-long learners at Stile, so we’re always looking to improve our practice. You’ll find yourself reading up on the latest negotiation strategies, or learning about the latest trends in education technology. You can also expect to spend time peer-reviewing work with your colleagues, ensuring we’re always delivering the best possible service.

A bit more about you

• You’re probably a secondary school science teacher with a few years of experience under your belt. Sales experience, especially in the edu-industry, is a bonus but not essential.
• You’re knowledgeable about science education and you’re across the latest trends in education technology and pedagogy.
• You are likeable and empathetic. A strong communicator that can build positive relationships and really put yourself in someone else’s shoes; understanding their problems and working to help fix them.
• You're eager to learn. Super eager. You soak up feedback, incorporate it, and are constantly driven to be better.
• You’re proactive and strategic. A hard worker who gets stuff done. You’re motivated to work independently, but love contributing in a team environment.

At Stile we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive and authentic workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with all of the points above, we encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.

What’s in it for you

• Colleagues worth working with. You’ll join an amazing 70-strong team of teachers, scientists, artists, and engineers. We hold ourselves, and each other, to a high standard, and love what we do.
• Working on something that really matters. In partnership with teachers, we’re coaching students to become problem solvers and critical thinkers. We believe that with a strong command of science, tomorrow’s citizens and leaders are set up to sort the misinformation from the facts.
• Support always. Stile is its people, and it’s important we are creating an environment where you’re supported, happy and able to do your best work. We have strong management and feedback frameworks, and a great benefits program check it out here Stile benefits
• Flexibility. We expect that you work hard, but you’ll have flexible hours and you’re the master of your own schedule. No rigid timetable to work to.
• Your own professional development. We’re lifelong learners here at Stile. Alongside teaching you everything you need to know to succeed in this role, we provide a generous PD allowance.

Hours and location

This is a full-time, permanent role remotely based in Adelaide, Australia. When you're not on the road, you will be working from home.

Work hours are flexible but generally fall in line with a typical 9-5 day. Usually your school visits and PD sessions will run before or after school, or anything in between.

You’ll be regularly driving to schools, so you’ll need your own car (don’t worry, we cover your expenses). Semi-regular travel will be required within SA to visit schools, and interstate for Stile events and training.
