Job Description

The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.
- Steve Jobs
Teach For Malaysia is an independent, not-for-pro\xef\xac\x81t organisation on a mission to empower our nation
through education. We believe that a child's education and future should not be determined by his or her
circumstances in life. Thousands of students don\'t have the chance to realise their potential because of
many socioeconomic factors, like how much their parents earn or where they were born/live.
We recruit, train and support our country's rising generation of leaders to teach in high-need schools
across the nation, through our 2030 strategy consisting of 2 \xef\xac\x82agship programmes which is the Teach For
Malaysia Fel owship and Program Duta Guru - our two-year leadership development programmes focused
on growing leaders across the education system. We\'ve impacted over 150,000 students and worked with
the Ministry of Education and other corporate and social sector partners to col ectively bring
transformation to the education system. Beyond the Fel owship and Program Duta Guru, our growing
network of Alumni, education champions and supporters are lifelong advocates for education and
expanding opportunities for students, working as a movement to build an ecosystem of solutions at al
levels of society - from the classroom to the boardroom.
As we celebrated TFM's 10-years of existence and impact, we are looking for champions to join our team
in this movement of change - people who share our vision, mission, and core values (Sense of Possibility,
Excel ence, Col aboration, and Integrity) - so that we are able to col ectively work towards expanding our
impact. Alignment to our vision, mission and values are integral to TFM's culture, to ensure long-term,
sustainable success and to realise our mission to:
Build a movement of leaders in the education ecosystem to empower all children in Malaysia to
realise their potential
Our col aborative working environment opens up many opportunities for you to expand your network and
lead your own learning, alongside other team members, Fel ows and Alumni, corporate partners, the
Ministry of Education, and other education stakeholders. Teach For Malaysia is also a partner in the Global
Education Network, Teach For Al .
While our compensation package is fair and competitive, we do not expect this to be your key reason for
joining us. After al , we are not just offering you a job; we are looking for a like-minded future leader to
grow with us and help us achieve our mission.
