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

You have previously articulated and owned a transformative academic vision and delivered measurable results. You have led teams directly, not from the periphery. Your foundation in learning science is not theoretical—it is demonstrated through systems you have built, outcomes you have driven, and the credibility you have earned to present that work publicly. If this describes your track record, 2 Hour Learning seeks its academic leader and strategic architect.

2 Hour Learning operates a model in which students achieve accelerated learning—twice the pace—within two hours per day. The model is powered by AI-driven tutoring, mastery-based progression, and a fundamental redesign of traditional classroom structures. Performance data validates the approach. We now require a leader who will harmonize execution across multiple school environments, elevate academic standards, and serve as the authoritative external voice for a movement rooted in evidence-based learning science.

This position is not centered on academic theory. It is a leadership imperative. You will direct the academic strategy in operational terms, establish rigorous standards, diagnose execution shortfalls, and develop high-performing teams to produce tangible results. You will convert our scientific principles into operational excellence and advocate for this model on a global platform.

What You Will Be Doing

• Developing academic frameworks that operationalize learning science for curriculum design, motivational architecture, and application development.
• Conducting academic execution reviews with Heads of Academics to ensure alignment, accountability, and consistent delivery of results across school teams.
• Analyzing data, conducting interviews, and performing direct observation to produce academic ecosystem assessments that identify critical barriers to accelerated learning and recommend targeted interventions.
• Ensuring strategic coherence through planning cycles, feedback mechanisms, and milestone oversight to sustain focus on learning objectives.
• Serving as the principal representative of 2 Hour Learning in high-stakes contexts, including keynote presentations and meetings with Ministries of Education, to influence systemic educational reform.
  
  

What You Won’t Be Doing

• Engaging in isolated curriculum development that does not produce system-wide impact.
• Producing theoretical research disconnected from measurable student outcomes or operational implementation.
• Transferring accountability for performance to mid-level managers or external consultants.
• Depending on institutional reputation or conceptual frameworks to convince critical audiences.
