Director of School Development

Crossover is the world's #1 source of full-time remote jobs. Our clients offer top-tier pay for top-tier talent. We're recruiting this role for our client, 2 Hour Learning. Have you got what it takes?

If you've ever looked at a group of skeptical, demanding stakeholders and thought, "I can't wait to turn them into my biggest champions" - we should talk.

We're looking for a powerhouse communicator who can transform parents into passionate champions for an educational revolution.

2 Hour Learning is dramatically reimagining education: replacing traditional 6-hour school days with 2 hours of AI-powered learning. But revolutionary ideas face sophisticated resistance. We need someone with the gravitas to convince accomplished, demanding parents to bet their children's futures on our vision.

This role demands someone who radiates executive presence - equally commanding in the boardroom, on camera, or leading high-stakes parent meetings. You're the person everyone turns to when the stakes are highest: whether it's presenting to the board, handling media interviews, or turning a PR crisis into an opportunity to demonstrate value.

You thrive on transforming critics into advocates because you understand that resistance isn't a problem - it's an opportunity to showcase transformative impact. You believe maintaining uncompromising standards builds credibility. Most importantly, you know how to build and scale advocacy movements that turn individual wins into systematic change.

If you've built your career on the ability to command a room, shape narratives, and transform skeptics into evangelists - let's talk about leading the revolution in education.

What You Will Be Doing

• Commanding high-stakes presentations and conversations that convert sophisticated skeptics into advocates
• Building and activating networks of influential parent champions who drive our narrative in their communities
• Designing scalable systems that turn individual parent wins into compelling proof points and advocacy opportunities
• Building sophisticated feedback systems that capture parent sentiment early and turn potential issues into advocacy opportunities
• Leading critical media interactions and shaping public narratives around our revolutionary approach
• Creating and seizing strategic opportunities to showcase our transformative impact
  
  

What You Won’t Be Doing

• Running traditional parent-teacher associations or school improvement committees
• Planning social events without strategic advocacy goals
• Making exceptions to our educational model to please influential parents
• Reacting to concerns instead of proactively shaping the narrative
