Operations Coordinator   $100,000 USD/year

Description

Open the door. Hand the keys. Move to the next city. You take a vacant space and transform it into a fully operational school campus—on schedule, ready to run—then transfer it to operations and start again elsewhere. This is continuous sprint delivery, month over month. If this is the pace you're looking for, read on.

2 Hour Learning operates schools where students complete their academic work in two hours, then dedicate the remainder of the day to life skills, entrepreneurship, and experiences that traditional schooling rarely accommodates. The results speak for themselves: students ranking in the top 1-2% nationally, progressing at double the standard rate. But the model depends entirely on campus readiness. Your role is to deliver that: school campuses that are fully operational, on time and within budget, across an expanding network of micro schools, growth campuses, and flagship vertical campuses in major metropolitan areas.

The timelines are always tight. You'll go from building handoff to first day of school in weeks, not months. That requires coordinating vendor workflows, tracking dependencies on a daily basis, and leveraging AI to anticipate every outstanding item before it turns into a bottleneck. After a campus opens, you hand the site over to the permanent operations team and shift to the next buildout.

You'll begin with micro-campus buildouts—the fastest-cycle, most repeatable projects in the portfolio. As the network scales to include growth and flagship campuses, the scope and complexity of your projects will scale with it.

When a school opens on schedule and students arrive on Day 1, no one will know your name. That's the definition of success. Apply today through our assessment process: a cognitive evaluation followed by a practical work sample.

What you will be doing

  • Overseeing the complete buildout for each campus you're assigned: coordinating FF&E (Furniture, Fixtures & Equipment) procurement and installation, interior work, IT infrastructure, signage, and playspace from building handoff to opening day
  • Executing a compressed delivery schedule with a fixed opening date: sequencing vendor workflows, managing project dependencies, and accelerating tasks wherever the timeline demands
  • Coordinating and validating vendor work: submitting scopes, overseeing on-site execution, inspecting against specifications, and formally rejecting work that doesn't meet standards
  • Leveraging AI tools to draft vendor scopes, generate punch lists, track open items, and build handoff documentation—this role operates at a pace that requires it
  • Implementing standardized site deployment playbooks, verifying readiness upon completion, documenting structured feedback, and organizing the handoff to the ongoing operations team

What you will NOT be doing

  • Managing steady-state facility operations once a campus is open: you hand off to the permanent ops team and shift to the next project
  • Performing hands-on trades or installation work: your role is to direct, inspect, and accept—not to swing a hammer or pull cable
  • Handling real estate sourcing, permitting, or certificate of occupancy: by the time the building is handed to you, that work is complete
  • Working on a single project at a slow pace: micro-campus buildouts move quickly, and there's always another one in the queue
  • Navigating shared ownership or unclear accountability: each buildout has one person responsible from handoff to 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 deliver complex buildouts on compressed timelines: each campus you open is a delivery rep that most project managers take years to accumulate elsewhere
  • How to advance in project scope—micro-campus buildouts are where you start; deliver consistently, and the next project is larger, with more systems, more vendors, more complexity, and more cities
  • How to build real AI workflows embedded in daily operations work: not a tool you use occasionally, but the engine behind how scopes get drafted, punch lists get tracked, and handoffs get documented
  • A proven site deployment methodology you'll both execute and improve—your structured field feedback directly shapes how future campuses get built across the network
