Teacher - Accounting and Business

The Opportunity

Carey Baptist College is seeking a passionate Secondary Accounting and Business Teacher to join our Harrisdale Campus from 1 January 2027. This position is available on a part-time basis between 0.6 and 1.0 FTE, with the teaching load tailored to the successful applicant's experience and strengths.

What You'll Be Doing

• Deliver engaging and contemporary Accounting and Business programs that inspire curiosity and deepen understanding.
• Create learning experiences that connect theory with practical, real-world application.
• Develop students' financial literacy, analytical thinking, decision-making and entrepreneurial mindset.
• Use a variety of teaching strategies to challenge, support and engage learners of all abilities.
• Provide timely feedback that helps students grow in confidence and achieve their personal best.
• Build positive relationships with students, encouraging them to become resilient, responsible and reflective learners.
• Collaborate with colleagues to continually strengthen curriculum, assessment and teaching practice.
• Contribute to the pastoral and co-curricular life of the College.

What Matters Most

Business isn't just about numbers, and Accounting isn't just about balance sheets. These subjects help students understand how organisations make decisions, how economies function, how businesses create value, and how sound financial thinking can influence every stage of life. We're looking for a teacher who can bring these concepts to life. Someone who can take complex ideas and make them practical, engaging and relevant. Someone who enjoys helping students develop confidence, think critically and recognise opportunities, whether that's preparing for university, entering the workforce or one day starting a business of their own. Above all, we're looking for a teacher who understands that the greatest impact happens through relationships.
