Assistant gymnastics coach
Founded in 1924, the International School of Geneva Foundation, commonly known as Ecolint, is the world's first international school and maintains close ties with the UN. With eight schools spread across three campuses in the Geneva area, we educate approximately 4,500 students aged 3 to 18. We have approximately 1,500 employees representing more than 110 nationalities. Ecolint is based on strong humanitarian values and prides itself on its long history of educational innovation, including the creation of the International Baccalaureate, currently a benchmark in more than 3,500 international schools worldwide. Our mission is to shape the lives of our students and prepare them to become global citizens engaged in the political, ethical and environmental challenges of their time.
The La Châtaigneraie Campus is located in the hamlet of Châtaigneriaz, overlooking the village of Founex and Lake Geneva, not far from Geneva. With a mix of old and new buildings, the campus is divided into a primary school and a secondary school, with a total of around 1,600 pupils. We are proud to be both an International Baccalaureate World School and to offer our students the opportunity to follow the Swiss Maturity curriculum. Our programmes are based on the IB learner profile, a set of ideals that inspire, motivate and guide the work of the school and help students become more thoughtful, informed, responsible and caring global citizens. Promoting these qualities is at the heart of all our activities. Our international team of educators is dedicated to welcoming and supporting a diverse student population.
