Director of Learning Science, Learning; Remote

You've set a clear academic vision before and taken ownership of the results. You've led visibly, not from the sidelines. And your work in learning science isn't exploratory—you've created something tangible, produced evidence that validates its effectiveness, and secured the credibility to present it publicly. If this describes your experience, 2 Hour Learning seeks its academic leader.

At 2 Hour Learning, we've developed a system in which students achieve learning at double the conventional rate in only two hours per day. AI-driven tutoring, mastery-oriented progression, and a fundamental rethinking of traditional classroom design underpin these results. The outcomes are remarkable. We now need a leader who can align implementation across varied school environments, elevate academic leadership standards, and serve as the authoritative public representative of a movement anchored in sound learning science.

This is not a position focused on academic theory. It is a leadership imperative. You'll control the academic strategy in action, establish unambiguous standards, pinpoint performance gaps, and mentor high-performing teams toward tangible results. You'll convert our scientific underpinnings into operational rigor and advocate for this model on a global stage.
