What we're looking for:
Someone who is excited about mathematics and wants to bring that joy to the next generation. You should have experience of teaching mathematics and want to develop your skills in creating high quality classroom resources.
We are a small team with big ambitions, who are in a phase of substantial growth. You should be excited about working in an entrepreneurial environment where things can change quickly but where you have the opportunity to have a tremendous impact.

If you consider yourself to be from a background where progressing to university mathematics is not the norm then we strongly encourage you to apply.
About Axiom Maths:
Axiom Maths is a maths education charity on a mission to help every child with the heart and head for maths realise the potential of their power.

We champion innovation and our employees are empowered to implement new ideas without barriers.
