The Role
Rosebank College is seeking two exceptional educators to join the College as Founding Stage 3 Teachers and help shape an important new chapter in our history. With Stage 3 (Year 5) launching in 2027, this is a defining opportunity to establish strong foundations, culture, and standards from the beginning.
Reporting to the Director of Stage 3, successful applicants will work collaboratively as part of the inaugural Stage 3 team, contributing to the development of a connected, high-performing learning community that supports academic excellence, student wellbeing, faith formation, and successful transition into the Secondary years.
Commencing in Term 4, 2026, successful applicants will benefit from a supported transition period, allowing time to build relationships, engage deeply with the College’s culture, and strategically design the learning experiences, structures, and practices that will underpin Stage 3 from its inception.
This is not simply a teaching position - it is an opportunity to help build something enduring.
For a collaborative and forward-thinking educator, this is a chance to make a lasting impact.
