About the role

  • Thanks for your interest in Success Academy!
  • Running a large, fast-growing, and high-performing network of public charter schools takes a village - families, children, teachers, staff and faculty, advocates, and supporters alike.
  • We work tirelessly every day to ensure children have access to a fun, rigorous, whole-child education regardless of zip code or economic status.

Responsibilities

  • define the sample, set success criteria, manage the process end to end, and translate findings into a clear recommendation for rollout
  • You want to understand how things actually work, from the systems you're building to the teachers and scholars at the end of the chain.
  • Demonstrated experience as an integrator across technical, business, and user-facing workstreams: someone who has held the whole picture and used it to drive better decisions across all three

Requirements

  • You are a natural integrator: you instinctively pull together information from disparate sources, find the tensions, and work to resolve them before they become problems
  • You have owned outcomes in complex, cross-functional environments
  • You have startup or high-growth experience and know what it means to operate without institutional scaffolding or clean swim lanes
  • You are a strong enough communicator to write a tight executive memo, run a sharp meeting, present to skeptical senior stakeholders, and have hard conversations when they are needed
  • You are politically intelligent: you read rooms accurately, understand what people actually care about, and navigate competing interests without losing momentum
  • You are a self-starter who identifies what needs to happen and does it
  • You don't accept the first explanation, you interrogate assumptions, and you can distinguish between what's true and what's merely plausible.
  • You know that real communication means understanding your audience's perspective well enough to actually move them, not just transmit information at them.
  • You are assertive about removing obstacles, you don't wait to be told what to do next, and you measure yourself by results rather than effort.
  • 8-12 years of total professional experience, with at least 4-5 years owning complex cross-functional implementations with real organizational stakes

Skills

  • Run the communication cadence that keeps the Head of Educational Technologies, senior leadership, and key stakeholders oriented
  • Maintain momentum across a long, multi-stakeholder program
  • Partner with the

Compensation

  • $160,000 - $180,000 USD
  • Compensation is competitive and commensurate with experience.

Benefits

  • Experience in K-12 education is a plus, but explicitly not a requirement; what matters more is experience delivering complex programs to end users at scale in organizations that move fast and expect a lot
  • Entrepreneurial Drive.
  • Success Academy offers a full benefits program and opportunities for professional growth.
  • We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
