  • Reputation: in our industry trust and credibility matter greatly, and you'll help shape how students, parents, educators, and institutions understand and perceive Outsmart.


Who You Are

  • Built and scaled organic or viral growth for a fast growth consumer product.


What Helps You Succeed
  • Strong instincts for Gen Z.
  • Strong analytical instincts, you care about ideas, but even more about their impact.
  • The ability to move comfortably between strategy and execution including dealing with ambiguity.
  • Curiosity and intellectual drive.
