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

You've championed a transformative academic vision and taken full ownership of the results. Your leadership has been visible and direct, not relegated to the background. In learning science, you've moved beyond theory—you've created real systems, delivered measurable impact, and earned the credibility to share that work publicly. If this describes your experience, 2 Hour Learning seeks a leader to serve as its academic anchor.

2 Hour Learning has developed a system enabling students to learn at double the rate in only two hours per day. This performance is powered by AI-driven tutoring, mastery-oriented advancement, and a fundamental reimagining of traditional schooling. The outcomes speak for themselves. We now need a leader who can harmonize execution across varied school implementations, elevate academic standards, and champion this evidence-based movement on a global stage.

This role is not theoretical. It is a leadership charge. You will take ownership of academic strategy in action, define rigorous standards, surface performance gaps, and develop elite teams to achieve tangible results. You will convert our learning science foundation into operational excellence and advocate for this approach worldwide.

What You Will Be Doing

• Developing academic frameworks that bridge learning science with actionable strategies for curriculum design, student motivation, and application architecture.
• Conducting academic execution reviews with Heads of Academics to guarantee school teams remain aligned, responsible, and results-driven.
• Integrating data, stakeholder interviews, and direct observation into comprehensive academic ecosystem assessments that reveal critical bottlenecks to accelerated learning and recommend targeted solutions.
• 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-profile settings—from conference keynotes to engagements with national education ministries—to influence global perspectives on schooling.
  
  

What You Won’t Be Doing

• Engaging in isolated curriculum initiatives that lack broader systemic impact.
• Producing theoretical research disconnected from measurable student outcomes or operational implementation.
• Shifting accountability for performance to consultants or mid-level managers.
• Depending on institutional prestige or academic credentials alone to convince skeptical audiences.
