The PIE was launched in 2011 by Amy Baker, Clare Gossage and Jane Gilham, who wanted to create a media and jobs platform for all Professionals in International Education, which is where our name comes from.
They envisioned a place where people from all corners of the international education industry could come to get the latest news and insights, helping them make more informed decisions, feel connected and ultimately do their jobs better.
There wasn’t anything like this when they created The PIE – and still isn’t.
We are UK-based but globally-networked with an office in Boston and contributors around the world. The PIE remains an independently owned and operated business. You can read more about our editorial policies, how to write for us and how we work with partners and sponsors here.
As a company, we are committed to providing a flexible and inclusive working environment for our team. We understand the challenges that come from working and supporting a family and offer flexibility to work around those demands.
Regular team meetups are also important as we keep the team engaged and enthused about the exciting and evolving business world of global education. The majority of the team at The PIE have had experiences living or studying overseas and we cultivate a workplace that values diversity and international experience.
We also support a charity each year through our events and are proud to give a platform to lesser-known or smaller causes that champion education as an enabler of opportunity.
