Working at ESL
We believe that learning new languages through travel can be among the most enjoyable and important experiences one can have. If you share our passion, you might be a good fit for our team.
Our employees are highly diverse and motivated, fulfilling a huge range of roles and speaking a number of languages on a daily basis. Our offices are energetic, multicultural and social places.
We encourage leadership. Each member of the team (whether responsible for managing others or not) is expected to push themselves and take ownership of diverse tasks, appreciating how their work affects everyone else in the company.
As a growing company, new positions regularly become available. Whatever your educational background, we want to hear from you if you are a team player and have something to offer.

Staff Development
As we develop our team, our team develops ESL.
Most of our employees have received help in training towards a qualification, whether related to languages, their job or a personal project.
We believe in the potential of people.
As such, we invest constantly in staff development. Personal growth translates into a stronger team and a better working environment.
Through sponsorship, we actively encourage our staff to take language holidays and to improve their language skills. This puts our team members in a better position to assist our students and, of course, it’s great fun!
On a daily basis, we encourage our staff to take leadership. This doesn’t always mean managing other people; it means appreciating the effects of one’s actions upon others.
"Three members of the web team and three members of the design team recently had a week-long training and brainstorming session with an external expert."
"Earlier this year I spent two weeks improving my English in London. During this time I continued to work remotely from where I was studying."
"We also have regular training to help the staff work well together. I recently completed a three day leadership and conflict management course."
