We are looking for a native English speaker with a strong command of Arabic to join our Development & Technical Support team. In this role, you will support partner schools around the world in implementing the Tafakkur curriculum, ensure the quality of both the English and Arabic versions of our educational content, and serve as a bridge between the two languages at a depth that goes well beyond translation. 

About the team

The Development & Technical Support department supports and qualifies institutions implementing the Tafakkur curriculum around the world. This is done through field visits, remote sessions, email, and communication groups. The team develops the performance of supervisors and teachers, tracks and documents learning outcomes scientifically, and produces research-grade reports for educational partners. The team also supports the supervision department at Tafakkur Academy when needed.

What you'll do

• Conduct supervisory visits to partner schools — both in-person and remotely — to ensure quality of implementation
• Travel (when needed) to support schools outside Jordan — up to 4 field visits per academic year, each no longer than six days
• Respond to supervisors' inquiries across various communication channels
• Share documents and curriculum materials with schools and track their impact
• Prepare school performance reports and summarize research findings
• Organize training sessions and end-of-semester meetings with partner schools
• Identify and resolve quality issues in curriculum implementation
• Attend weekly team meetings within the Development & Technical Support department
• Review Arabic curriculum materials in depth, compare them against English translations, and propose edits to ensure meaning and nuance are accurately carried across both versions
• Represent Tafakkur at external events and school meetings
• Support and follow up with teaching staff at Tafakkur Academy
• Support the sales team on technical matters related to new and existing partner schools
• Contribute to any other tasks that serve the development department's goals, and support other teams when needed

Language requirements — please read carefully before applying

• English — native or mother-tongue level

This role requires a native English speaker, or someone who has lived in an English-speaking country long enough that English feels like a first language in both written and spoken form. If English is a second language you learned academically or professionally, this position is likely not the right fit.

• Arabic — working proficiency required

The Tafakkur curriculum originates in Arabic and is translated into English. You will need to read Arabic source materials in depth, critically compare them against their English translations, and identify where meaning, nuance, or intent has been lost or altered. This goes beyond conversational Arabic — you need to be comfortable engaging with educational and conceptual content in the language.

What we're looking for

• Native or mother-tongue level English proficiency (written and spoken)
• Working proficiency in Arabic, with the ability to read and critically analyze educational content
• Background in education, curriculum development, or a related field
• Strong written communication skills and sharp attention to detail
• Comfortable with both remote communication and in-person school visits
• Willingness to travel internationally a few times per year
