The posting

Salary: S$8,000–S$10,000 per month Location: Singapore Employment: Full time, on site

An established school. Direct access to the owner. Scope to put your experience into practice.

If you’re doing well in your current role but open to the right opportunity, this is worth a closer look.

I’m recruiting a Centre Principal for an established international preschool with strong enrolment and an established teaching team. You’ll work directly with the owner, with scope to influence teaching practice, develop your team and improve how the school runs.

First Konnection specialises in Singapore’s private education sector and is rated 4.8 out of 5 on Google. I’m handling this search personally and have discussed the role and expectations directly with the owner.

The opportunity

The school follows a play-based approach and serves a diverse international parent community.

You’ll build on an existing foundation, bringing your educational judgement into the classroom, helping teachers develop their practice and making children’s learning clear to parents.

There is room to put practical ideas into action, including improvements to centre routines, timetables and the use of learning spaces. You’ll have a direct working relationship with the person making decisions about the school’s direction.

For an experienced leader who enjoys developing people and improving how a school operates, this offers meaningful responsibility and scope to contribute.

The leadership we’re looking for

You notice what needs attention, make sound decisions and follow things through. You can manage competing priorities while keeping track of the details that affect children, families and staff.

You’re approachable with parents and clear with your team. You can listen carefully, handle a difficult conversation and address concerns while maintaining trust.

You’re comfortable taking initiative, bringing recommendations forward and turning agreed decisions into action.

Working with the owner

Expect close collaboration during the initial transition as you establish a working rhythm together.

The owner communicates directly, pays attention to detail and has clear expectations. You’ll be expected to explain your recommendations, raise issues early and keep agreed actions moving.

The aim is a working relationship in which you take confident ownership of daily centre leadership and keep the owner informed.

Key responsibilities

  • Lead daily centre operations, prioritise issues and follow actions through to completion.
  • Maintain a safe environment, accurate records and compliance with ECDA requirements.
  • Review centre routines, timetables and learning spaces, and implement practical improvements.
  • Coach teachers in play-based learning and strengthen the quality and consistency of classroom practice.
  • Set clear expectations, provide constructive feedback and manage teacher performance fairly.
  • Build trusted relationships with parents through regular communication, clear explanations of children’s learning and effective handling of escalated concerns.

Requirements

  • Currently serving as a Principal, Vice-Principal or Centre Leader in an ECDA-licensed international preschool in Singapore.
  • At least 5 years of relevant preschool experience.
  • ECDA L2 certification and eligibility for Principal appointment, supported by an ECDA-recognised leadership qualification.
  • Current responsibility for independently managing centre operations, teacher performance and escalated parent concerns.
  • Strong understanding of play-based early childhood education, with the ability to develop teachers and explain educational practice clearly to parents.
  • Evidence of identifying operational or teaching issues, exercising sound judgement and delivering improvements.

Apply through First Konnection

Submit your CV, expected salary and notice period.

Please make your current leadership responsibilities and improvements you have personally delivered clear in your application.

I’ll contact shortlisted applicants for a confidential discussion about the school, the owner’s expectations and whether the opportunity fits what you want from your next move.

Salary offered will reflect relevant experience, demonstrated leadership capability and overall suitability.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
