Start Date: September 2026

Contract: Full-time, Permanent

Salary: Paid to scale

The Role

A high-achieving Secondary Academy in Bristol is seeking a professional, analytical, and highly organised Economics & Business Studies Teacher to join their prestigious Social Sciences faculty. This is a premier opportunity to work within a well-structured and supportive school environment where the commercial disciplines are among the most popular and successful choices for senior student cohorts advancing to university frameworks.

The successful candidate will deliver a dynamic and challenging timetable across Key Stages 4 and 5, splitting instructional focus between microeconomic models, macroeconomic policy parameters, and market structures at A-Level, alongside corporate structure, financial forecasting, and marketing frameworks at GCSE. Beyond classroom teaching, you will be expected to construct analytical student progress logs, update school compliance tracking systems, manage internal departmental communications, and actively mentor students entering national Young Enterprise and investment banking simulations.

You will support crisp communication with parents, university finance networks, and local commercial partners, ensuring that all examination documentation, coursework folders, and student assessment metrics are processed with total accuracy. Strong administrative and organizational skills are crucial, as the role requires managing distinct specification guidelines across two highly analytical subject tracks within a busy secondary school framework.

The academy is looking for a proactive, reliable professional who can deconstruct complex monetary theories, global trade data, and corporate financial statements into crisp, engaging, and high-impact lessons. Strong communication, data literacy, and a collaborative spirit are important to thriving within this highly driven academic team.
