Description
Ready to stop advising and start commanding? This is your battlefield promotion.
2 Hour Learning is launching 25-30 school campuses in six months. Buildings. Budgets. Systems. Regulatory hurdles. We need elite operators who can own entire domains: approvals, onboarding, or finance. No committees. No handoffs. Just you, clear authority, and the imperative to build the machine that scales.
We're seeking former MBB consultants who've grown restless recommending when they could be executing. This role demands those who transform ambiguity into clarity and plans into outcomes.
2 Hour Learning powers breakthrough K-12 education models where students master a year's curriculum in just two focused hours daily, freeing the rest for growth and discovery. Our private equity-backed expansion is funded and proven. The model works. Now we're building the infrastructure at pace.
Apply if you're ready to trade PowerPoint for P&L. Theory for action. Recommendations for results.
What you will be doing
- Command one critical domain of our national launch strategy: regulatory approvals, onboarding systems, or financial operations
- Execute cross-functional initiatives with complete decision authority and accountability
- Develop and validate scalable playbooks in real-time deployment conditions
- Interface directly with founders, functional leaders, and campus teams to deliver launch-ready infrastructure
- Leverage AI and automation technologies to accelerate operational execution and efficiency
What you will NOT be doing
- Serving as a strategic advisor without implementation responsibility
- Navigating bureaucratic approval chains—you have direct access to decision-makers
- Focusing on single-market execution—your mandate spans all geographies
- Waiting for direction—you define the path forward
- Escalating difficult decisions—you own the outcomes
Key responsibilities
Candidate requirements
We're recruiting across multiple operational domains. Each requires velocity, precision, structured thinking, and relentless execution.
You must bring:
- Minimum 3 years experience at a premier strategy consulting firm (McKinsey, Bain, BCG)
- Demonstrated success leading cross-functional operations in high-pressure, ambiguous environments
- Exceptional capability in at least one domain: regulatory navigation, onboarding systems, or financial operations at scale
- Structured approach with strong execution orientation—capable of independent implementation without supervision
- U.S. work authorization and capacity to travel approximately one week monthly
- Proficiency with AI tools to enhance workflow efficiency and accelerate deliverables
