Operations Coordinator   $100,000 USD/year

Description

Deliver it. Hand it over. Move forward. Transform a raw space into a fully functional school, launching on schedule and ready for students, then transfer it to operations and begin the next one in a new location. This is rapid-cycle deployment, month in and month out. If this pace appeals to you, continue reading.

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

Timelines are always tight. Move from building turnover to first day of instruction in weeks, not months. This requires coordinating vendor schedules, monitoring dependencies on a daily basis, and leveraging AI to anticipate and resolve every outstanding task before it causes a setback. After a campus goes live, you hand the site to the ongoing operations team and shift to the next deployment.

You'll begin with micro-campus installations — the most rapid and repeatable initiatives in the portfolio. As the network grows to include growth and flagship locations, the scope and intricacy of your responsibilities will grow accordingly.

When a school launches on schedule and students arrive on Day 1, your contribution remains invisible. That's the hallmark of success. Apply today via our assessment process: a cognitive evaluation followed by a practical work sample.

What you will be doing

  • Overseeing the complete buildout for each campus under your management: organizing FF&E (Furniture, Fixtures & Equipment) sourcing and installation, interior work, IT infrastructure, signage, and playspace from building turnover to opening day
  • Executing a condensed project timeline against a fixed launch date: arranging vendor workflows, tracking project interdependencies, and accelerating progress wherever the schedule demands
  • Managing and approving vendor deliverables: issuing scopes of work, overseeing on-site execution, verifying compliance with specifications, and formally declining substandard work
  • Applying AI tools to produce vendor scopes, create punch lists, monitor outstanding tasks, and compile handoff documentation — the pace of this role requires working this way
  • Implementing standardized deployment protocols, confirming site readiness upon completion, recording structured observations, and coordinating the transition to the ongoing operations team

What you will NOT be doing

  • Managing day-to-day facility operations once a campus is open: you transfer responsibility to the permanent operations team and proceed to the next assignment
  • Conducting hands-on trade or installation work: your function is to direct, verify, and approve — not to physically install equipment or run cabling
  • Handling real estate acquisition, permitting, or certificate of occupancy processes: by the time you receive the building, those steps are complete
  • Operating on a single project with an extended timeline: micro-campus buildouts progress quickly, and the next one is always queued
  • Navigating ambiguous ownership or divided accountability: every buildout is assigned one responsible party from turnover to launch

Key responsibilities

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

Candidate requirements

  • A minimum of 2 years in operations, facilities, or project delivery
  • Documented experience identifying and correcting a flawed process, with quantifiable evidence of impact: reduced cost, shortened timeline, or enhanced quality
  • Proven ownership of a multi-phase project from start to finish, from initiation through documented closure
  • Confirmed vendor management capability: enforce quality standards with contractors and challenge substandard performance
  • Track record of managing 2 or more concurrent projects or locations without lapses in execution
  • Consistent use of AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, or equivalent) to increase efficiency and maintain organization
  • US-based and authorized to work without requiring visa sponsorship
  • Willing to travel 60–80% of the time (3–4 days per week)

Nice to have

  • Prior involvement in a physical buildout or site activation across any sector: retail, restaurants, healthcare, offices, or comparable environments
  • Experience in construction project management, tenant improvement, commercial fit-out, or facilities management
  • Direct or supporting exposure to FF&E, IT setup, signage, or commercial interior projects, even in a coordinator capacity
  • Familiarity with a project tracking platform (Wrike, Notion, Procore, Asana, Monday.com, or similar) for task or timeline management

Frequently asked questions

About Crossover

What you will learn

  • How to execute complex buildouts under compressed schedules: each campus you open represents a delivery cycle that most project managers spend years accumulating in other roles
  • How to advance in project complexity — micro-campus installations are your entry point; meet expectations, and your next assignment will be larger, involving more systems, more vendors, more intricacy, and more cities
  • How to construct functional AI workflows integrated into daily operations: not an occasional tool, but the core mechanism for drafting scopes, tracking punch lists, and preparing handoff materials
  • A validated site deployment framework that you will both implement and refine — your organized field observations directly inform how future campuses are built throughout the network
