Education & Teaching Jobs in New Zealand

Imagine a place where you can work to the highest professional standards, then in half an hour or less be relaxing on a beach, hiking through beautiful native bush, pounding down a mountain bike track or just chilling with friends in your back garden over a fine New Zealand wine. That’s what you can look forward to when you bring your skills to New Zealand.

Register your interest

Take the first step to a new life by registering with Immigration New Zealand. We’ll send you personalised emails about job opportunities in your profession, life in New Zealand and choosing the right visa.

It’s free and there’s no obligation.

Professional satisfaction

New Zealand is a world leader for education, according to the UN Development Programme’s 2011 Human Development Report - ahead of Norway, Australia, Ireland and the US. The OECD agrees, describing us as “one of the strongest OECD countries” for literacy, maths and science. You’ll be working in an education sector that is admired internationally – and in fact attracts upwards of 100, 000 students annually from overseas countries.

As an overseas trained teacher, you will need to be extremely competent in both written and spoken English.

Skilled teachers and academics welcome

Teaching professionals in particular demand in 2013 and onwards are those listed on our skills shortages lists: university lecturers, special education teachers and post-doctoral fellows. If your job is on a skill shortage list and you have the qualifications and experience to match, the work visa application process is likely to be faster. And you may even be able to apply for a resident visa.

However, if your teaching role is not on a shortage list and you are offered a job, for example in one of our schools, you can also apply for a visa.

Visa options

There are various types of visas that you may be eligible to apply for. Work visas are for a temporary stay in New Zealand, but some can lead to residence. Resident visas, such as the Skilled Migrant Category, allow you to stay indefinitely and enjoy more of our state-funded public services.

Getting started

The Education Gazette is a great place to start looking for a job.

At the same time you should register with the New Zealand Teachers’ Council if you're a primary or secondary school teacher. As a part of your registration, you will need to have your qualifications assessed and meet the English language requirements.
