Internationella Engelska Skolan Karlstad is now seeking a qualified music teacher for our fantastic team. You will, together with a colleague, be responsible for teaching grades 4-9 (ages 10-16). Teaching takes place in half-class groups in a fully equipped music room. The position is full-time, starting 2026-01-07. We are looking for a qualified music teacher with the following qualifications:

- Ability to develop ideas that promote student recordings and creative music-making, ensuring students develop in line with curriculum goals.
- Strong knowledge of recording technology and digital music creation.
- Ability to analyze and clarify musical components to create a coherent thread in students' creative processes.
As a music teacher at Engelska Skolan, you will also lead one of the school's choirs and have the opportunity to develop school bands and studio activities. Therefore, it is desirable if you have:

- Experience leading choirs with both experienced and inexperienced singers, as well as writing arrangements and parts adapted to the choir.
- Experience planning and implementing schedule-breaking events, such as Lucia celebrations and school graduations, in collaboration with school management.
We require a Swedish teaching certification, or – for international applicants – a valid teaching license/registration, along with a bachelor's degree and teaching education. This is an opportunity to work at our school in an international environment, alongside a committed and supportive team that values collaboration, creativity, and high-quality teaching. In addition to teaching meaningful and inspiring lessons, all staff are expected to be well-organized, provide active mentorship, and serve as role models for our students.
