Are you an experienced teacher looking for a new challenge? Do you love creative writing and ensuring all young people have opportunities to succeed?

We are currently recruiting for a Lead Storyteller.

The Lead Storyteller focuses on the development of creative writing programs for both primary and high school classrooms, and supporting new and existing Storytellers in their programming and workshop delivery.
