About the Role

The Company is seeking a Chief Learning Officer to lead its mission of providing excellent early education, particularly in under-resourced communities. The successful candidate will be an innovative educational leader with a strong background in child development, curriculum, and instructional best practices. This role is pivotal in ensuring that the organization's Montessori-inspired curriculum is effectively delivered to all learners, including multi-lingual and special needs children. The Chief Learning Officer will also be responsible for championing a culture of continuous improvement, using data to validate and enhance educational practices, and ultimately, ensuring that all children are prepared for a successful transition to kindergarten and a lifelong love of learning.

Applicants for the Chief Learning Officer position at the company should have a Bachelor's degree and at least 15 years' of relevant experience, with a focus on managing interdisciplinary teams. A proven track record in using data to drive improvements and a deep understanding of child development and evidence-based instructional practices are essential. The role requires exceptional analytical skills, the ability to build effective relationships, and a commitment to the organization's mission. While not mandatory, a higher degree in a relevant field and experience with early childhood curricula, including various pedagogies, are preferred. The ideal candidate will be adept at leading teams through change, be comfortable with research science and statistical methods, and have experience in operationalizing educational strategies.
