Job DescriptionJob Description

Guidepost Montessori, Hollywood Beach is bringing on a Programs Manager to join our school leadership team. A high-quality authentic Montessori program is core to our success, so this is a critical role in our organization. The Programs Manager works alongside our Head of School in achieving programmatic excellence by leveraging personal and in-house deep experience and knowledge of the Montessori pedagogy, helping to hire, train, and retain strong talent across our campuses, and supporting effective parent and staff communications. Each of these elements leads to full, thriving school communities.

We're scaling quickly and have over 150 schools with a current pace of growth of 40 new schools per year. We're looking for an individual who is both a big-picture thinker capable of surveying our vast landscape of school needs and a hands-on doer with the skills to quickly solve problems and scale practical, effective practices that help us have thriving and profitable schools. If you're excited about working in an entrepreneurial environment and building capacity in others to enable widespread change in education today, this role is for you.

Responsibilities

The Programs Manager will be a member of a small but mighty team supporting programs ranging from Infant through High School across three buildings, making up our Hollywood Beach campus. This team functions in a cross-functional manner including enabling Guides to own the holistic success of their classroom. Responsibilities include but are not limited to:

  • Build programmatic excellence in team. This individual will play a key part in supporting our campus to have excellent Montessori programming. Utilizing both deep experience and knowledge of the Montessori pedagogy alongside data-rich metrics, this team member ensures that we hire, coach, support and retain excellent Montessori educators in our schools. Behind this individual is our in-house Montessori training institute that provides Montessori teacher certification for all team members within our network.

  • Hire, grow and retain excellent classroom teachers. A key part of this role will be securing, supporting, and retaining mission-driven talent. It's not enough to coach from afar, in our organization we jump in and do alongside others as they are building their capacity to do for themselves. As part of this work, you will model excellence in classroom with teachers and provide action oriented and practical feedback to improve program quality quickly. You will also build capacity in Assistant Head of Schools to observe and provide meaningful programmatic feedback and coaching as the leaders of their buildings. This work will include a focus on a teacher interviewing, hiring, onboarding, and managing a solid and reliable Montessori substitute teacher pool at our campus.

  • View Program Quality within the lens of a profitable and thriving school. Having a high-quality Montessori program is mission critical. We believe that when you have an excellent program, successful student outcomes, thriving enrollment and passionately engaged staff --profitability is the outcome. We are unapologetically a for-profit education organization; this is how we can carry out our mission to bring Montessori education far and wide. To this end, profitability of each school within a region is the responsibility of every team member, including you. This role will work collaboratively with the Head of School to ensure a thriving, successful and profitable school.
