All full-time degree-holding staff and full-time postgraduate students are welcome to apply. Applicants should be mature, responsible, and possess good interpersonal skills. Fluency in English is a must, while knowledge of Putonghua and Cantonese will be an advantage.

The appointment period is from 1 August 2022 to 31 July 2023, while early check-in might be required.

The Resident Tutor will be reporting to the Wardens. Duties include:
