Description

Take possession. Execute the plan. Hand it over. Transform a vacant shell into a fully functioning school campus, deliver it on schedule and ready for students, then transfer operations and move to the next city. This is rapid-cycle deployment, project after project. If this approach appeals to you, continue reading.

2 Hour Learning operates schools where students complete their core academics in two hours daily, dedicating remaining time to life skills, entrepreneurship, and opportunities traditional schooling cannot accommodate. The model delivers measurable outcomes: students performing in the top 1-2% nationally, advancing at double the standard rate. None of this is possible without campus readiness. Your responsibility: delivering fully operational school facilities, on schedule and within budget, across an expanding portfolio of micro schools, growth campuses, and flagship vertical campuses in major metropolitan areas.

Timelines are consistently tight. Transition from building turnover to first day of school in weeks rather than months. This requires coordinating vendor activities, monitoring dependencies continuously, and leveraging AI to address every outstanding task before it causes schedule slippage. After campus launch, you execute the transition to the permanent operations team and proceed to the next buildout.

Begin with micro-campus deployments — the highest-velocity, most standardized projects in the portfolio. As the network grows to incorporate growth and flagship locations, both scope and complexity of your assignments will increase correspondingly.

When a school launches on schedule and students arrive on Day 1, your contribution remains invisible. That defines successful execution. Apply today via our assessment process: a cognitive evaluation followed by a practical work sample.

What you will be doing

  • Overseeing complete buildout execution for each assigned campus: coordinating FF&E (Furniture, Fixtures & Equipment) procurement and installation, interior construction, IT infrastructure, signage, and playspace from building turnover through opening day
  • Executing a compressed delivery timeline against a fixed opening date: coordinating vendor workflows, managing interdependencies, and compressing schedule wherever the calendar demands
  • Directing and validating vendor deliverables: issuing scopes of work, overseeing on-site execution, inspecting against specifications, and formally refusing substandard work
  • Deploying AI tools to create vendor scopes, produce punch lists, monitor outstanding tasks, and assemble handoff documentation — the pace of this role requires this approach
  • Implementing standardized site deployment protocols, confirming operational readiness upon completion, recording structured observations, and orchestrating the transition to the ongoing operations team

What you will NOT be doing

  • Overseeing steady-state facility operations post-launch: you transition responsibility to the permanent ops team and advance to the next buildout
  • Executing hands-on trade or installation tasks: your role is to coordinate, inspect, and validate — not perform physical labor or technical installation
  • Handling real estate acquisition, permitting processes, or certificate of occupancy: these are completed before the building is assigned to you
  • Operating on a single project with extended timelines: micro-campus buildouts progress rapidly, with continuous new projects entering the queue
  • Navigating ambiguous ownership or distributed accountability: each buildout assigns clear responsibility to one person from turnover through opening day

Key responsibilities

Deliver fully operational campuses on time and on budget, from building handoff through opening day.

Candidate requirements

  • At least 2 years in operations, facilities, or project delivery
  • Experience identifying and fixing a broken process, with a measurable result to show for it: cost saved, time cut, or quality improved
  • Experience owning a multi-step project end-to-end, from kickoff through documented completion
  • Demonstrated vendor management skills: hold contractors to quality standards and push back when they miss the mark
  • Experience running 2 or more active projects or sites at the same time without things falling through the cracks
  • Regular use of AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, or similar) to work faster and stay organized
  • Based in the US and eligible to work without visa sponsorship
  • Available to travel 60–80% of the time (3–4 days/week)

Nice to have

  • You've been part of a physical buildout or site activation in any industry: retail, restaurants, healthcare, offices, or similar
  • Background in construction project management, tenant improvement, commercial fit-out, or facilities management
  • Any hands-on exposure to FF&E, IT setup, signage, or commercial interior work, even in a coordinator or support role
  • You've used a project tracking tool (Wrike, Notion, Procore, Asana, Monday.com, or similar) to manage tasks or timelines

Frequently asked questions

About Crossover

What you will learn

  • How to execute complex buildouts under compressed timelines: each campus launch represents a delivery cycle that most project managers require years to accumulate in other environments
  • How to progress in project complexity — micro-campus buildouts represent your starting point; meet expectations, and subsequent assignments expand in scale, incorporating more systems, more vendors, greater complexity, and additional cities
  • How to construct functional AI workflows integrated into daily operational tasks: not an occasional utility, but the foundational mechanism for drafting scopes, tracking punch lists, and generating handoff documentation
  • A validated site deployment framework you will both implement and refine — your systematic field observations directly inform how future campuses are executed throughout the network
