Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Teach For Malaysia Full time

**Finance & Operations Director**
“The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
- Steve Jobs

Teach For Malaysia is an independent, not-for-profit organisation on a mission to empower our nation
through education. We believe that a child’s education and future should not be determined by his or her
circumstances in life. Thousands of students don’t have the chance to realise their potential because of
many socioeconomic factors, like how much their parents earn or where they were born/live.

We recruit, train and support our country’s rising generation of leaders to teach in high-need schools
across the nation, through our 2030 strategy consisting of 2 flagship programmes which is the Teach For
Malaysia Fellowship and Program Duta Guru - our two-year leadership development programmes focused
on growing leaders across the education system. We’ve impacted over 330,000 students and worked with
the Ministry of Education and other corporate and social sector partners to collectively bring transformation
to the education system. Beyond the Fellowship and Program Duta Guru, our growing network of Alumni,
education champions and supporters are lifelong advocates for education and expanding opportunities for
students, working as a movement to build an ecosystem of solutions at all levels of society - from the
classroom to the boardroom.

We are looking for champions to join our team in this movement of change - people who share our vision,
mission, and core values (Sense of Possibility, Excellence, Collaboration, and Integrity) - so that we are able
to collectively work towards expanding our impact. Alignment to our vision, mission and values are integral
to TFM’s culture, to ensure long-term, sustainable success and to realise our mission to:
**Build a movement of leaders in the education ecosystem to empower all children in Malaysia to realise**
**their potential through quality education**

Our collaborative working environment opens up many opportunities for you to expand your network and
lead your own learning, alongside other team members, Fellows and Alumni, corporate partners, the
Ministry of Education, and other education stakeholders. Teach For Malaysia is also a partner in the Global
Education Network, Teach For All.
