About us
Urban International School (UIS) is a private high school in Toronto inspected by the Ontario Ministry of Education in Ontario, Canada. Over the last decade, we have offered specialized academic courses that are designed for students who wish to pursue higher education in Canada and around the world. Based on the program students wish to pursue in post-secondary school, UIS prepares a customized study plan that underlies one of our four streams: Engineering, Science/Math, Business, Arts or College. Most of our graduates are accepted in prestigious universities such as the University of Toronto, University of British Columbia, McGill University, among many other Canadian and international universities.
UIS has a friendly and dedicated team of Ontario-certified teachers who teach courses from Grade 7 to Grade 12 to a diverse student body that includes students from Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and South America.

4. The Employee shall support preparation and localization of marketing materials by translating English content into Japanese and coordinating with the UIS Design and Toronto Teams to produce brochures, presentations, and digital content suitable for the Japanese market.
5. The Employee shall track student inquiries and maintain the enrollment pipeline. Daily, weekly, and monthly structured reports summarizing recruitment, agency activity, and market trends shall be submitted to the Management Team.
