Director Of Educational Strategy 2 Hour Learning Remote - 400 000 Year USD

You have shaped ambitious academic visions and taken full ownership of their results. You have led visibly, not from the sidelines. When it comes to the science of learning, you are not a spectator. You have built proven systems, delivered measurable impact, and earned credibility to share that work publicly. If this describes you, 2 Hour Learning seeks its academic leader and strategic anchor.

At 2 Hour Learning, we have developed a system in which students achieve learning gains at twice the typical rate in only two hours each day. Our approach relies on AI-driven tutoring, mastery-oriented progression, and a fundamental redesign of traditional schooling. The outcomes speak for themselves. We now need a leader who can harmonize execution across varied school structures, elevate academic leadership standards, and serve as the public advocate for a movement built on sound learning science.

This is not a position for theoretical exploration. It is a mandate for operational leadership. You will be accountable for academic strategy in action, establish rigorous standards, surface performance gaps, and develop high-performing teams to achieve tangible results. You will convert our scientific principles into disciplined operations and champion this model to external audiences.

What You Will Be Doing

• Designing academic frameworks that convert learning science principles into actionable guidance for curriculum development, motivational structures, and application interfaces.
• Conducting academic execution reviews with Heads of Academics to confirm alignment, enforce accountability, and verify delivery of outcomes across school teams.
• Integrating data analysis, stakeholder interviews, and direct observation into comprehensive academic ecosystem assessments that identify high-impact obstacles to accelerated learning and recommend targeted solutions.
• Ensuring strategic coherence through structured planning, continuous feedback mechanisms, and milestone monitoring to sustain focus on student achievement objectives.
• Serving as the senior representative of 2 Hour Learning in high-profile forums, including keynote addresses and engagements with Ministries of Education, to influence global perspectives on schooling.
  
  

What You Won’t Be Doing

• Engaging in narrow curriculum initiatives disconnected from broader systemic impact.
• Producing theoretical research that lacks direct connection to measurable student outcomes or operational implementation.
• Transferring responsibility for team performance to mid-level managers or external consultants.
• Depending on institutional prestige or untested theory to convince skeptical audiences.
