Established in 2018, JUST FEEL is the first charitable organisation in Hong Kong to systemically promote Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) and Compassionate Communication in local schools. Our mission is to transform communication culture within schools and families by empowering educators and parents to enhance students' emotional well-being. To date, JUST FEEL has supported over 55,300 students, 8,900 teachers, and 87,300 parents, partnering with over 65 schools to build a Compassionate School Culture.
The Role: Building a Compassionate School Network
You will be the primary bridge between JUST FEEL and the educational community. Your goal is to expand the reach of the Compassionate School Programme (CSP) by recruiting new schools and ensuring deep, sustainable alignment with all school-based stakeholders.
Key Responsibilities
● School Recruitment: Lead outreach efforts to recruit schools for joining CSP and maintain a steady pipeline of partner institutions, including facilitating workshops or hosting briefing sessions.
● Stakeholder Relationship Management: Partner with school leadership (Principals/Vice-Principals), teachers, social workers, and parents to ensure school-wide alignment and the adoption of a consistent compassionate language.
● Network Maintenance: Serve as the main point of contact for existing partner schools, ensuring their needs are met and monitoring their progress towards building a compassionate culture.
● Collaboration: Work closely with the Programme Design team to provide "on-the-ground" feedback from schools to inform programme iterations.

We are looking for a "stretched" individual who is ready to grow with us:
● Experience: Background in education, counseling, or programme management in Hong Kong’s school sector is essential.
● Empathetic Communicator: Good understanding of SEL and NVC, and/or trauma-informed practices. Be able to communicate in Cantonese and English.
● Innovative Problem Solver: Able to customise and articulate the implementation journey of CSP in different school cultures.
● Collaborative Leader: Demonstrates integrity and a commitment to knowledge sharing.
● Growth Mindset: Eager to learn and embrace setbacks; view challenges as opportunities for growth.
What We Offer
● Compassionate and Supportive Team Culture: Join a team that lives the "Connection Before Solution" principle, prioritizing psychological safety and trust-building where staff feel safe, seen, and valued.
● Systemic Exposure: Gain high-level exposure to Hong Kong’s educational landscape, partnering with school leaders and diverse stakeholders to drive city-wide social-emotional transformation.
● Professional Mastery: Access specialized coaching and training opportunities, including a co-created Personal Development Plan (PDP) designed to align your strengths with our mission.
● Well-being Support: Enjoy generous annual leave, flexible working hours and work-from-home arrangements and medical insurance coverage for sustainable well-being.
