Job Title: Founding Principal — Thinkers' Valley World School (Relocate to Jaipur, India)

Company: Thinkers' Valley World School

Location: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India

Workplace type: In office

Employment type: Full-time

Thinkers Valley World School is a new Cambridge International school being built in Jaipur, India, with its first cohort opening in April 2027.

We are recruiting our Founding Principal from outside India — specifically from the EU, UK, and progressive education environments — to lead the academic vision of the school from its very first day.

This is a founding leadership role focused entirely on academics. You will not inherit a finished system. You will help design the curriculum, the pedagogy, the teacher culture, the classroom rituals, and the soul of the school.

Timeline
We are actively reviewing applications and engaging with candidates now Target joining date: September 2026 – October 2026 Admissions open: November 2026 First cohort opens: April 2027 Scope of the role (please read carefully)

This is a focused academic leadership role.



The Founding Principal will lead everything within the academic domain — curriculum, pedagogy, teacher development, classroom culture, student learning, and academic parent communication.

The operational side of the school — financial management, staff hiring and firing, HR processes, vendor management, infrastructure, and administration — will be handled by the founding management team.

The Principal will provide academic input on teacher selection and partner with management on building the academic team, but final hiring, firing, and HR decisions rest with management.

We believe this clarity of focus gives our Founding Principal the autonomy to concentrate their energy on what matters most: the quality of learning inside our classrooms.
