Campus Readiness Specialist   $100,000 USD/year

Description

Open it. Hand it off. Move on. Take an empty space and turn it into a functioning school, on time and fully operational, then put it in the ops team's hands and start the next one in a different city. This is sprint delivery, month after month. If that's how you want to work, keep reading.

2 Hour Learning runs schools where students cover their academics in two hours, then spend the rest of the day on life skills, entrepreneurship, and pursuits traditional education never has time for. The model produces results: students scoring in the top 1-2% nationally, learning at twice the pace. But it only works if the campus is ready. You'll deliver that: fully operational school campuses, on time and on budget, across a growing network of micro schools, growth campuses, and flagship vertical campuses in major cities.

The windows are always compressed. Go from building handoff to opening day in a matter of weeks, not months. That means sequencing vendor work, tracking dependencies daily, and using AI to stay ahead of every open item before it becomes a delay. Once a campus opens, you transition the site to the ongoing operations team and move to the next build.

Start with micro-campus buildouts — the fastest-moving, most repeatable projects in the portfolio. As the network expands to include growth and flagship campuses, so do the scope and complexity of what you're managing.

When a school opens on time, and students walk in on Day 1, no one knows your name. That's the job done right. Apply today through our assessment process: a cognitive evaluation followed by a practical work sample.

What you will be doing

  • Managing the full buildout for each assigned campus: coordinating FF&E (Furniture, Fixtures & Equipment) procurement and installation, interior work, IT infrastructure, signage, and playspace from building handoff through opening day
  • Running a compressed delivery schedule against a hard open date: sequencing vendor workstreams, managing project dependencies, and accelerating wherever the timeline requires
  • Coordinating and accepting vendor work: submitting scopes, supervising execution on-site, inspecting against spec, and formally rejecting non-compliant delivery
  • Using AI tools to draft vendor scopes, generate punch lists, track open items, and build handoff documentation — this role moves too fast to work any other way
  • Executing standardized site deployment playbooks, validating readiness on completion, documenting structured feedback, and planning the handoff to the ongoing operations team

What you will NOT be doing

  • Managing steady-state facility operations after a campus opens: you hand off to the permanent ops team and move to the next project
  • Performing hands-on trades or installation work: your job is to direct, inspect, and accept — not swing a hammer or pull cable
  • Dealing with real estate sourcing, permitting, or certificate of occupancy: by the time the building reaches you, that work is done
  • Working on a single project at a slow pace: micro-campus buildouts move fast, and there's always another one in the pipeline
  • Getting lost in shared ownership or unclear accountability: each buildout has one person responsible from handoff to opening day

Key responsibilities

Deliver fully operational campuses on time and on budget, from building handoff through opening day.

Candidate requirements

  • At least 2 years in operations, facilities, or project delivery
  • Experience identifying and fixing a broken process, with a measurable result to show for it: cost saved, time cut, or quality improved
  • Experience owning a multi-step project end-to-end, from kickoff through documented completion
  • Demonstrated vendor management skills: hold contractors to quality standards and push back when they miss the mark
  • Experience running 2 or more active projects or sites at the same time without things falling through the cracks
  • Regular use of AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, or similar) to work faster and stay organized
  • Based in the US and eligible to work without visa sponsorship
  • Available to travel 60–80% of the time (3–4 days/week)

Nice to have

  • You've been part of a physical buildout or site activation in any industry: retail, restaurants, healthcare, offices, or similar
  • Background in construction project management, tenant improvement, commercial fit-out, or facilities management
  • Any hands-on exposure to FF&E, IT setup, signage, or commercial interior work, even in a coordinator or support role
  • You've used a project tracking tool (Wrike, Notion, Procore, Asana, Monday.com, or similar) to manage tasks or timelines

Frequently asked questions

About Crossover

What you will learn

  • How to deliver complex buildouts on compressed timelines: each campus opened is a delivery rep that most project managers take years to accumulate elsewhere
  • How to move up in project scope — micro-campus buildouts are where you start; hit your marks, and the next project is bigger, with more systems, more vendors, more complexity, and more cities
  • How to build real AI workflows embedded in daily operations work: not a tool you use occasionally, but the engine behind how scopes get drafted, punch lists get tracked, and handoffs get documented
  • A proven site deployment methodology you'll both execute and improve — your structured field feedback directly shapes how future campuses get built across the network
