Director of Learning Strategy, Learning; Remote

You have shaped a clear academic vision in the past and taken full ownership of its results. Your leadership has been visible and direct. When it comes to learning science, you're not experimenting—you've developed proven systems, delivered measurable outcomes, and earned credibility to present your work publicly. If that describes your experience, 2 Hour Learning is seeking its chief academic leader.

At 2 Hour Learning, we operate a system in which students learn at twice the conventional rate within two hours each day. This performance is driven by AI-powered tutoring, mastery-based progression, and a deliberate break from traditional classroom design. The results speak for themselves. We now need a leader who can drive consistent execution across multiple school models, strengthen academic leadership standards, and serve as the public advocate for a movement built on sound learning science.

This role is not about academic theory. It is a leadership assignment. You will control the academic strategy in action, define explicit standards, diagnose execution shortfalls, and develop high-performing teams to achieve concrete results. You will convert our research foundation into operational rigor and present this model to external audiences with authority.

• Developing academic frameworks that convert learning science into actionable guidance for curriculum design, motivational systems, and application development.
• Conducting academic execution reviews with Heads of Academics to ensure alignment, accountability, and consistent delivery across school teams.
• Analyzing data, conducting interviews, and observing classrooms to produce academic ecosystem assessments that identify the most critical obstacles to accelerated learning and recommend concrete interventions.
• Ensuring strategic alignment by establishing planning processes, feedback mechanisms, and milestone tracking that keep focus on student learning outcomes.
• Serving as the external representative of 2 Hour Learning at senior forums, including keynote presentations and engagements with Ministries of Education, to influence global perspectives on education.

• Working on disconnected curriculum initiatives that lack systemic impact.
• Producing theoretical research disconnected from student outcomes or operational execution.
• Passing accountability for performance to middle managers or external consultants.
• Using institutional reputation or academic theory alone to win over critical stakeholders.
