About Us: Love Justice International (LJI) is a Christian nonprofit organization compelled by God's love to fight the world's greatest injustices. We fight injustice in two primary ways: through our expanding anti-human trafficking work and by caring for orphaned and abandoned children. We currently work throughout Asia and Africa.
Position Type: Full Time; Salaried; Overseas (South Asia)

Position Overview: LJI operates 17 family homes and one hostel for orphaned and abandoned children in South Asia. Our primary objective is to help these children become difference-makers in their nation. The Love Justice School, located in South Asia, plays a significant role in that by inspiring our students to become independent thinkers, adept problem solvers, and passionate difference makers in the world by preparing their hearts, minds, and souls through excellent education. This unique school has both Nepali and expat teachers and aims to implement the most research-backed educational methods from around the world to achieve a truly "kingdom class" education.
LJI is seeking a dedicated and motivated leader to help this school achieve the level of biblical excellence to which we are called. If this can be done, LJI intends to scale this model (a school at the center of multiple family homes for orphaned children) up and implement it around the world.
This position is located in South Asia and reports to the President. Ideal candidates will have both a robust preference for research-backed methodologies and a heart and mind to dream about everything that education can be.
