Jobs

A prestigious international family is seeking an exceptional female STEM Tutor to provide long-term academic support to three daughters, primarily focusing on their Grade 10 daughter, with additional support for their Grade 8 and Grade 3 sisters when required.

This is a retained, long-term salaried appointment rather than an hourly, daily or ad-hoc tutoring position. The successful candidate will provide continuity across online schooling, in-person tuition and periods of international travel.

THE STUDENTS

The family has three daughters currently studying at:

• Grade 10 — primary focus

• Grade 8

• Grade 3

The children attend accredited American online schools, including Dwight Global Online School and Laurel Springs School.

The Tutor will complement the schools' established teaching and curricula, rather than replace them. The role combines subject-specialist teaching with academic oversight, mentoring, organization and continuity.

The family divides its time between Madrid, the Maldives and other international destinations. Their lifestyle is highly international, and travel plans and daily schedules may vary throughout the year.

The household is private, high-profile and supported by a professional team. The successful candidate must therefore be discreet, adaptable and comfortable working collaboratively within a well-managed private household.

The successful candidate must be able to teach all three of the following confidently at Grade 10 level and above:

• Mathematics

• Physics

• Chemistry

Additional expertise in Biology, Coding, Engineering, Technology or broader Science would be advantageous.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Deliver rigorous, engaging STEM tuition both online and in person.

• Monitor school platforms, assignments, deadlines, grades, teacher feedback and assessments.

• Identify learning gaps and develop targeted academic plans that complement the school curriculum.

• Consolidate difficult concepts and prepare students for examinations and assessments.

• Develop practical, project-based and experimental STEM activities where appropriate and safe.

• Support effective study habits, academic organization, time management, confidence and independent learning.

• Communicate professionally with parents, personal Assistants, teachers, school advisors and other tutors.

• Provide concise academic progress updates and raise concerns promptly, together with practical recommendations.

• Provide occasional age-appropriate STEM support to the younger sisters.

• Maintain academic continuity when the family changes location or travels internationally.

• Travel with the family during agreed periods, including internationally and across different time zones.

The role is intentionally flexible because the family's requirements will change according to the academic calendar, examinations, assignment workload and travel schedule.

The position offers:

• Fixed guaranteed annual salary, normally paid monthly.

• Hybrid delivery, combining online and in-person tuition.

• Variable weekly workload, with lighter and more intensive periods throughout the year.

• International travel during agreed periods, including some school holidays.

• Reasonable flexibility around changes to the daily timetable.

• Appropriate periods of annual leave and weekly rest.

The final employment agreement will clearly define expected availability, communication windows, travel days, annual leave, rest periods and anticipated intensive and lighter periods.

This is not a 24/7 position and flexibility does not mean unlimited availability.

The successful candidate must:

• Be female.

• Hold a strong academic STEM background, with a relevant degree and/or recognized teaching qualification.

• Demonstrate substantial experience teaching Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry to Grade 10 level or above.

• Have significant private tutoring or teaching experience, including experience with teenagers.

• Have excellent written and spoken English; a native English speaker is strongly preferred.

• Be highly organized, proactive and capable of working independently.

• Be confident explaining challenging STEM concepts in a clear, engaging and motivating way.

• Be comfortable with international travel, changing locations and variable workloads.

• Demonstrate discretion, integrity and excellent professional boundaries.

• Be able to make a genuine long-term commitment to the family.

The candidate must already have the unrestricted legal right to live and work in Spain without requiring the family to sponsor a new visa.

An EU/EEA/Swiss passport is strongly preferred. Candidates with an existing Spanish residence/work status providing equivalent unrestricted employment rights may also be considered.

The right candidate will be more than an excellent academic.

She should be:

• Warm, positive and naturally energetic.

• Polished and appropriately presented for a high-profile international household.

• Calm, emotionally mature and adaptable.

• Confident and authoritative while remaining kind and approachable.

• A positive female role model for teenage girls.

• Discreet, trustworthy and able to exercise sound judgement.

• A clear communicator who knows when to take initiative and when to respect family privacy.

• Collaborative and comfortable working alongside household and education professionals.

• Genuinely interested in the students and capable of building long-term trust and motivation.

Preference will be given to candidates with experience in one or more of the following:

• Private, international, UHNW or high-profile families.

• Residential tutoring, travelling tutoring or governess/tutor positions.

• American curricula and online-school environments.

• Learning-management and online education platforms.

• Supporting executive function, confidence, attention or learning differences.

• International education and working across multiple time zones.

• EU/EEA/Swiss nationality or established unrestricted work rights in Spain.

• International driving, where legally permitted.

• Spanish or other additional languages.

The final package will be agreed with the successful candidate and structured on an annual salaried basis.

It will include:

• Competitive fixed gross annual salary, paid monthly.

• Long-term employment or another legally compliant annual arrangement.

• Paid annual leave and appropriate weekly rest.

• Family-covered travel, accommodation and local transport during agreed work travel.

• Reimbursement of agreed work-related expenses.

After 15:00, there is normally no staff presence or cleaning in the house unless specifically requested.
