Required from October 2025 until June 2026 (Fixed Term Contract)
We have a wonderful opportunity for an enthusiastic and friendly individual to join our vibrant Modern Languages Department in providing support to teachers and students. This will be both in-class support and one-to-one conversation and coaching with our students. You should be a native French speaker or a bilingual specialist. We may also consider very capable British-born linguists with the right aptitude, skills and experience. You may well be considering a career in teaching, and this will give you a chance to put yourself to the test and work in a high-performing academic environment.
Hours: 18 hours of contact time per week, Monday to Friday during RGS term time. Working days and daily start and finish times may vary; however, the earliest start time would be 8.15am and the latest end time would generally be 4.30pm. Exact hours will be confirmed upon appointment in line with student timetables.
Salary: The salary for this role is circa £31,000 gross per annum (based on a full-time working contract). The Language Assistant’s actual salary for 18 hours per week during term time will be adjusted to circa £9000, which is proportionate to the dates of the fixed term period (i.e. 01/10/25 until 26/06/2026).
Excellent benefits available - see job information for more details.
