Open vacancies
No vacancies were listed on the careers page when it was last read. TCIS publishes its international teacher salary grid (฿95,000–฿135,000 a month) and benefits but lists no individual vacancies: American and Canadian teachers are recruited through Search Associates and UNI, and Thai teaching posts are advertised on JobsDB or by emailing the school.
Before you apply
A foreigner needs a work permit for any paid role in Thailand, and the employer applies for it. For the one-year extension of stay that follows, Immigration applies a minimum monthly income that depends on your nationality: see the official income test by nationality. Some occupations are closed to foreigners altogether: the closed-occupations list. Teachers also need a licence or waiver from the Teachers' Council; teacher pay and benefits across the dataset shows how this school compares.
