This is your opportunity to lead something new, exciting, and high-profile — right in the heart of one of the world’s most vibrant cities, with activities and classes held in multiple UAE venues.

We’re looking for a School Manager to run the day-to-day operations of our Dubai & UAE school.
You’ll be the face of the school — managing teachers, building relationships with parents, overseeing events, and ensuring smooth operations.

• Drive local marketing, social media, and community engagement
• Ensure every student has a safe, inclusive, and confidence-boosting experience
What We’re Looking For
• Strong organisational and leadership skills
• Previous experience managing a dance, drama, or performing arts school is a strong advantage
• Passion for youth arts and education
• Ability to manage a small team and multiple classes across different venues
• Confident communicator with parents and partners
• Positive, high-energy, and adaptable to a start-up environment
• UAE driving licence is ideal (role involves visiting multiple venues across the UAE)
• Based in Dubai or willing to relocate
What’s in it for You
• Base salary (AED-based)
• Annual flights to home country
• Health insurance provided
• Strong annual profit-share bonus scheme
• Opportunities to co-own future schools as the group expands
• Circa 32 hours per week (4 days, including weekends) — offering flexibility with a creative career

• Be part of a supportive, global network of performing arts educators
• Work in a vibrant, fast-growing city with huge opportunities in arts & culture
