Most roles = hourly rate x 40 hrs x 50 weeks
Description
Ready to revolutionize education? We're seeking a visionary academic leader who's not just theorized about breakthrough learning models - you've built them, proven them, and championed them on the global stage. At 2 Hour Learning, we've cracked the code on accelerated learning through AI-powered tutoring and mastery-based progression, enabling students to achieve twice the results in just two hours daily.
As our Director of Learning Strategy, you'll be the architect of academic excellence and the voice of educational innovation. This role goes beyond traditional academic leadership - you'll be the driving force behind a learning revolution that's already showing extraordinary results. We need someone who can transform scientific principles into operational excellence while inspiring a global movement in education.
If you've got a track record of turning bold educational visions into measurable outcomes and aren't afraid to challenge conventional wisdom with data-driven success stories, we want to talk to you.
What you will be doing
- Design and implement cutting-edge academic frameworks that bridge the gap between learning science theory and daily educational practice
- Orchestrate high-stakes academic performance reviews, ensuring our network of schools maintains exceptional standards
- Conduct comprehensive academic ecosystem analyses, identifying critical improvement areas and implementing strategic solutions
- Spearhead strategic initiatives that keep our entire organization laser-focused on accelerated learning outcomes
- Be our academic ambassador, from delivering compelling keynotes to negotiating with education ministries, driving global education reform
What you will NOT be doing
- Getting lost in isolated curriculum experiments that don't scale across our network
- Producing theoretical research papers that don't translate to real-world student achievement
- Avoiding direct accountability by creating layers of management buffer
- Using academic credentials alone to win over skeptics - we believe in proving our success through results
Key responsibilities
Your mission is to amplify and standardize 2 Hour Learning's revolutionary academic approach across our growing network of schools. You'll establish rigorous leadership benchmarks, ensure consistent execution, and become the authoritative voice of our evidence-based educational transformation.
