We are seeking a Early Years Support Staff member to support teaching and learning in PreK and Kindergarten classes. This role focuses on supporting classroom instruction, smallgroup learning, and student wellbeing while working closely with the class teacher in a structured and stimulating early childhood environment.

Help create a calm, safe, and stimulating learning environment.
Support students’ wellbeing and personal needs when required, including hygiene and care support.
Supervise transitions, play times, and daily routines in line with school expectations.
Role Context:
The class teacher is responsible for planning, assessment, and overall classroom direction. The Early Years Support Staff member plays an active role in supporting the teaching and learning process and is an important contributor to the classroom team. While planning is not required, collaboration, initiative, and professional input are encouraged.
Requirements:
Must already have the legal right to work in Saudi Arabia, or be the spouse/husband of an SEK employee.
Experience working with children aged 3–7 years.
Experience in a school or early years educational setting preferred.
Ability to support early literacy, including phonics, is highly valued.
First aid training is an advantage.
Good physical health and ability to support active classroom environments.
Personal Attributes:
Warm, patient, and supportive approach with children.
Positive and proactive attitude.
Flexible and able to adapt to classroom needs.
Confidence to support small groups and lead simple activities.
Strong collaboration skills and ability to work effectively as part of a team.
Why Join Us?
Opportunity to work in a highquality early years and primary learning environment.
Supportive team culture within a growing international school.
Modern facilities and a strong focus on child development and wellbeing.
Professional, international working environment in a unique location.
Salary starts on 60.000 SAR/year. Final salary is based on relevant qualifications and experience. Accommodation is also provided as an additional benefit and included for staff at no additional cost.
