Does anybody have any information about this school? What's it like compared to other schools in Bogota etc? No reviews in the paid section.

According to Search the salary is a little more than CNG, but well behind Anglo. Benefits seems to be better than Anglo (even CNG in some aspects) though (12% retirement, worldwide medical etc).

I have a friend there, he seems to like it. Been there about 4 or 5 years.

I know it by a close friend. It is a well-respected IB school in Bogota (although the Anglo has a slightly better reputation). It is in the north part of the city, but still in the city (most high-end private schools in Bogota are in the outskirts). It is fairly similar to other private bilingual schools in Bogota (students don't have monetary issues if you will, discipline might be tough or not depending on your teaching style, most kids are Colombian, etc.). All in all is a good school to work at (but if you are thinking of Bogota I would try to get something at the Anglo if I were you).
