Target English International

Target English International operates summer schools in many key locations across the UK. Our schools are based on the campuses of prestigious universities or Further Education colleges, all with generous recreational facilities on-site and exciting excursion locations within reach. We specialise in English language courses for students aged 11-18 and concentrate on a balanced mix between learning in the classroom and learning during activities and on excursions. We are dedicated to giving students a memorable, enjoyable and, above all, safe experience whenever they stay at one of our centres. Our staff are without doubt our most valuable asset and our students frequently say the staff are one of the best things about their study holiday. We welcome new applicants but also value our returning staff, and to both we offer an attractive package that includes: Competitive salary Full-board accommodation if required (in high quality single rooms, most of which are en-suite) Holiday pay Full induction on-site (managers and activity leaders are requested to attend our specialist Induction Weekends, held on our flagship centre campus at the University of Hull) £10 a week returner's increment (up to a maximum of 3 years) Contracts are usually 2 or 4 weeks in length dependent on location, and start dates can be at any point from mid-June to the end of August. Extensions are possible dependent on student numbers, staff availability and manager recommendations. How do we recruit?
