  • Collaboration: Partner closely with Principals to integrate operational strategies that directly support their academic vision and drive superior learning outcomes.

Regional Talent & Performance Management
  • Managerial Oversight: Lead the full talent lifecycle for all school-based Business Operations Managers, including strategic hiring, onboarding, rigorous management, and performance evaluation.
  • Organizational Growth: Design and execute comprehensive engagement and training plans to maximize staff retention and create a robust internal leadership pipeline.
  • Performance Accountability: Manage end-to-end school operations through a team of BOMs, ensuring every site consistently meets or exceeds key operational performance indicators (KPIs) and goals.

Operational Excellence & Stewardship
  • Regional Standards: Enforce network-wide standards for safety, aesthetics, and health protocols to ensure a uniform "high bar" across all schools.
  • Resource Management: Oversee regional logistics and financial health, ensuring BOMs have the tools and training necessary to manage school budgets and facilities effectively.

We invite you to apply if:
  • You have a four-year college degree.
  • You have worked as a leader in a school for at least 2 years.
  • You are flexible, ambitious, and an effective communicator.
  • You have a growth mindset, grit, humility, and a willingness to 'roll up your sleeves'.
