Operations Coordinator   $100,000 USD/year

Description

Launch it. Transfer it. Move forward. Transform an empty building into a fully operational school—on schedule and ready to serve students—then hand it to the operations team and begin the next one in another city. This is rapid deployment work, month after month. If that approach appeals to you, continue reading.

2 Hour Learning operates schools where students complete their academic requirements in two hours, then dedicate the remainder of the day to life skills, entrepreneurship, and activities that conventional education rarely accommodates. The approach delivers measurable outcomes: students ranking in the top 1-2% nationally, progressing at double the standard rate. But none of this functions unless the campus is prepared. Your role is to ensure that: fully operational school sites, delivered on schedule and within budget, across an expanding network of micro schools, growth campuses, and flagship vertical campuses in major metropolitan areas.

The timelines are consistently tight. Transform a building from handoff to opening day in weeks, not months. That requires sequencing vendor activities, monitoring dependencies on a daily basis, and leveraging AI to anticipate every outstanding task before it causes a setback. After a campus launches, you transition the site to the permanent operations team and proceed to the next project.

Begin with micro-campus buildouts—the most rapidly executed, highly repeatable initiatives in the portfolio. As the network grows to encompass growth and flagship campuses, both the scope and complexity of your work will increase accordingly.

When a school opens on schedule and students arrive on Day 1, your contribution remains invisible. That defines success in this role. Apply today through our assessment process: a cognitive evaluation followed by a practical work sample.

What you will be doing

  • Overseeing the complete buildout for each designated campus: coordinating FF&E (Furniture, Fixtures & Equipment) procurement and installation, interior work, IT infrastructure, signage, and playspace from building handoff through opening day
  • Executing a compressed delivery timeline against a fixed opening date: sequencing vendor workstreams, managing project dependencies, and expediting progress wherever the schedule demands
  • Coordinating and approving vendor work: submitting scopes, overseeing on-site execution, inspecting against specifications, and formally rejecting substandard delivery
  • Leveraging AI tools to draft vendor scopes, generate punch lists, track outstanding items, and build handoff documentation—this role operates too quickly to rely on manual processes
  • Implementing standardized site deployment playbooks, validating completion readiness, documenting structured feedback, and organizing the handoff to the ongoing operations team

What you will NOT be doing

  • Overseeing steady-state facility operations once a campus opens: you transfer responsibility to the permanent ops team and advance to the next project
  • Conducting hands-on trades or installation work: your responsibility is to direct, inspect, and approve—not perform physical labor or technical installation
  • Handling real estate sourcing, permitting, or certificate of occupancy: when the building is transferred to you, those tasks are already completed
  • Operating on a single project at a deliberate pace: micro-campus buildouts progress rapidly, and the next one is always queued
  • Navigating shared ownership or ambiguous accountability: each buildout has one designated person accountable from handoff through 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 correcting a broken process, with a quantifiable result to demonstrate it: cost saved, time reduced, or quality enhanced
  • Experience owning a multi-step project end-to-end, from kickoff through documented completion
  • Proven vendor management skills: hold contractors to quality standards and challenge them when they fall short
  • Experience managing 2 or more concurrent projects or sites simultaneously without gaps in execution
  • 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 participated in 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 represents a delivery repetition that most project managers require years to accumulate elsewhere
  • How to advance in project scope—micro-campus buildouts are your starting point; meet your targets, and the subsequent project is larger, with more systems, more vendors, more complexity, and more cities
  • How to construct genuine AI workflows embedded in daily operations work: not a tool you use sporadically, but the engine driving how scopes get drafted, punch lists get tracked, and handoffs get documented
  • A validated site deployment methodology you'll both execute and refine—your structured field feedback directly influences how future campuses get built across the network
