About FEJE Noroeste
FEJE Noroeste is a Spanish educational cooperative based in Gijón, Asturias, that manages a network of schools across northern Spain. The organization operates in the vocational training (Formación Profesional) and secondary education sectors, offering programs in technology, digitalization, mathematics, and specialized trades such as welding and electrical work. As a cooperative, it is owned and run by its teaching staff, which distinguishes it from typical private academies.
The company has a strong presence in Asturias and is expanding its bilingual education offerings, with roles that include teaching in English within a Spanish curriculum. For international professionals, FEJE Noroeste offers a cooperative, teacher-owned work environment with a strong focus on pedagogical innovation and the integration of technology into the classroom. Its Spain-based operations mean that international hires would need Spanish working proficiency, though bilingual programs provide an entry point for English-speaking educators.
