Nova Pioneer School Dorm Father Jobs in Tatu City, Kenya

Nova Pioneer is looking for a superstar School Dorm Father who will be in charge of the pastoral life of the boys school.

This is an exciting opportunity to be a part of an innovative network of schools that is developing generations of innovators and leaders who will shape the African Century.

About Nova Pioneer:

Imagine a world in which every young person across Africa attends a school that truly sets them up for success in the 21st century.

A school that cares about individual students and allows them to explore the world around them.

A school that focuses more on developing skills than on memorizing content.

At Nova Pioneer, we have done more than just imagine this future, we are bringing it to life.

Nova Pioneer is a pan-African, independent network of schools offering high quality, accessible education from pre-primary through secondary school.

Nova Pioneer uses a unique, enquiry-based learning approach that encourages students to ask “why” instead of telling them the “what”.

It allows them to form their own thinking through exploration, investigation and collaboration.

Nova Pioneer currently has 6 schools in South Africa and Kenya with a vision to launch 100 schools and reach tens of thousands of students across the African continent in the next decade.

Key responsibilities for the role include:

Playing the role of a ‘parent’ for the students in a professional working relation
Being a role model in all actions and behaviour to the students

Defending the rights of the child
Creating a safe environment for teenagers to develop their emotional and social skills.

Supervising the wellbeing, discipline and behaviour of students

Observing emotional behaviour and refer to school counsellor

Maintaining cleanness in dorms

Report to Dean of Residential Life

Note: This role requires you to live on campus with flexible working hours including working on weekends.

About You

Skills and Qualifications required:

Certificate/Diploma in social work or any other relevant course in child welfare

2+ years experience working with students
Professional counselling skills with a proven track record will be an advantage.

Knowledge and experience working with teenagers before

You are flexible and open to change – you handle uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity well.

You are a problem solver – you are proactive in identifying issues and address these thoroughly by making effort to find appropriate solutions.

You are excited about our organizational culture—and in particular, you are fired up to challenge yourself by embracing mutual vulnerability and a firehose of feedback.

How to Apply:

Does working at Nova Pioneer excite you?

To apply, please complete the form on the right hand side of this page. We cannot process applications that are emailed to us.

Please note: Where a copy of your resume is required, copying and pasting from

a formatted document e.g. Microsoft Word may not result in the formatting transferring correctly to the final resume.

You are encouraged to attach your resume in Microsoft Word® or PDF format to protect formatting.

Applications for this role will close on 22nd December 2017. All applications will be reviewed and applicants notified of next steps within a week after this closing date.

There are a series of stages in the Nova Pioneer interview process and candidates will be moved forward in the process depending on their success in the previous stage.

The process is as follows:

Phone interview: a short conversation to understand your skills and experience a little better.

Practical demonstration of what you can do: you will complete a written task or a demonstration related to the role you are applying for. Teachers participate in a half-day selection day at one of our campuses as well as deliver a lesson to a class.

In-person interviews: at this point you will visit one of our schools to meet the team and participate in a series of in-person interviews.

Final interview: you’ll have a final conversation with the hiring manager before decisions are made.

Working at Nova Pioneer: Nova Pioneer is a place where our people experience tremendous growth, fast! We invest heavily in the growth of our people because it leads to greater mastery in both us and our students.

“Novaneers” work harder and work longer hours than most schools but as a result, the growth they experience is extraordinary. We offer consistent and ongoing personal development and provide clear career pathways that ensure that our people are always achieving their personal and professional best.

Nova Pioneer has a highly energetic, entrepreneurial environment where our people get to bring their creative and innovative ideas to life. We look for people who are flexible and who are able to adapt and respond quickly to adversity with a positive, can-do attitude (there are no problems, only solutions!). We welcome challenges and roll with the punches because it makes us, and our students, better. There is no problem too big for us! We bring infectious energy and enthusiasm to everything we do because joy fuels our work and learning. Read more about our culture principles here.
