Employment
FIS has a dedicated faculty who create A World of Opportunities for students from every corner of the globe. Our inquiry-based teaching and learning practices help young people make connections within units of study and across academic disciplines. We welcome your interest in joining them.
We actively seek qualified teachers from around the world who wish to help us fulfill our school's mission. Recruitment generally begins in January for positions for the following school year, but applications can be submitted when the list of open positions at both campuses is made available.
Application Process
Because a personal interview is required prior to hiring, it is beneficial for interested applicants from outside Germany to register for and attend a job fair. Interview appointments can sometimes be made in advance through the divisional principals or with our school staff directly at recruiting conferences.
Frankfurt International School typically attends a number of hiring fairs in the UK and United States, such as the Search Associates Fairs in London and Cambridge/Boston. For the 2020-21 school year, FIS is planning on attending the following fairs:
- Search Associates Fair: London, 15-18 January 2021
- Search Associates Fair: Cambridge, Boston, USA, 22-25 January 2021
All qualified candidates must apply for open positions using our online application process. View our current job openings here.

Applications are invited from qualified teachers who must be fluent in English, eligible to work in Germany, and are planning to reside in the Frankfurt area for at least one year. If you are interested in being included on our substitute list, please send a cover letter and CV (including your current mailing address and date of birth) to Tanja_Pekrul@fis.edu.
Child Protection Commitment
To ensure the safety and welfare of children, Frankfurt International School follows the recommendations of the International Task Force on Child Protection. FIS recruiting practices are designed to attract and retain faculty who share this commitment.
