Absolutely! Schools are happy to interview and offer positions to teachers whilst they’re still in their home country. Gone are the days when you needed to physically present for an interview; a digital interview (or round of interviews) is now acceptable practice, and schools in our network are more than happy to offer employment to their preferred applicants, even if they’re based overseas
These offers are based on your ability to secure a valid working visa (see one of the later FAQs for more about visas and migration.)
If you’re not a New Zealand citizen, you’ll need a valid working visa to live and teach in Australia
Generally visa and migration advice should be discussed with a MARA (Migration Agents Registration Authority) migration agent. There are a number of categories, so finding the one best suited for you is important.
Common visa categories are Subclasses 186, 189, 190 and 491.
We suggest connecting with Darren Chatt (darren.chatt@visagoaustralia.com) at VISA GO (www.visa-go.com) and scheduling a consultation for expert advice
Having a School or Early Childhood Setting sponsor your visa prior to making the move is a challenge, so we’d recommend where possible that you look at the non-Employer Nomination Scheme visas (189, 190 and 491.)
Nothing! We work to support schools in their staffing by extending their recruitment reach and helping them identify suitable teachers and leaders for their vacancies. Whilst we ultimately work to support a school, the process means we work to support you as an educator as well! There are no fees, charges or commissions that you incur to have anzuk secure you a teaching position
In most cases, yes. Provided we can sight evidence of your teaching qualification that meets the minimum requirements for teacher registration or an AITSL assessment, schools are happy to offer employment based on your ability to get registered as soon as you arrive in Australia. There will likely be a clause in your contract saying you cannot start teaching until this has been approved, however it in nearly all cases it won’t stop an offer of employment being extended.
This depends on the state, however in most cases you’ll have to apply once on the ground in your respective states. To register, you will need slightly different documentation for each state, but in general you’ll need the following documents:
Some states allow registration from overseas, like QLD and Victoria, however as discussed above, independent schools in other states are happy to offer employment based on your eventual ability to secure registration.
See more about registering with NESA in NSW, the VIT in Victoria, the QLD College of Teachers and the TRB in WA.
Only you will know what school setting will be most appropriate for your children, however we are happy to suggest some local schools and options for you once you have secured employment
In many cases, the school in which you will be working at would love the opportunity to discuss enrolling your child/children in the same school!
Our team work on live roles but we also talent pool for roles both in the short term and long term. Sometimes we work with educators years advance.
No, anzuk work as the person in-between the school and the educator. We don’t take a cut of your pay.
Yes! Our team often work on leadership roles and we have an executive team that help on the executive and above level roles.
Sure! That is what we are here for, not only do we help you with your CV we help you get the job you deserve. From your cover-letter, to the CV itself and to preparing for interview. That is what our team is for!
We act as an advocate for you and your applications. When we are working with you proactively we may put you forward for roles not even advertised online. We can also negotiate on your behalf whether that is your salary or your load!
No, you are only charged when an educator is actually booked and working.
It depends on their qualification however, the minimum charge per shift is 3 hours. They can be sent home at any time if you don’t need them anymore.
Working with anzuk, we are actively speaking with educators everyday, rather than waiting for people to respond to an advert. We have our global team sourcing from overseas and we are networking at conferences around the country.
Educators want to make their life simpler, if they have a consultant working on their behalf, we are advocating for them so they feel more confident that they have someone workng hard for them. Educators might also not apply for roles that they deem unsuitable but as we have built relationships with the schools and educators we can advise otherwise.
If someone resigns it is good to know those details as soon as possible but if we have a longer lead time we can also pipeline for vacancies you know are coming up.
