Job description

Senior Vice President Design and Construction, 2 Hour Learning (Remote) - $400,000 / year USD

1 day ago Be among the first 25 applicants

This range is provided by Crossover. Your actual pay will be based on your skills and experience — talk with your recruiter to learn more.

Base pay range

$200.00 / hr - $200.00 / hr

If you've encountered a space that felt instinctively right and then wondered how to replicate that precision across 100 locations, this position is designed for you. We are not seeking a concept designer. We are seeking the systems architect who can establish a national function that reliably produces premium, brand-aligned, and pedagogically coherent environments at scale.

At 2 Hour Learning, our approach inverts the traditional school day. Two hours dedicated to rigorous academics. The remainder reserved for passion pursuits, physical activity, and experiential learning. That fundamental transformation requires environments engineered with equal intentionality — and we need a leader to drive this initiative.

You will design the systems, standards, and organizational structures that guarantee every campus fulfills that commitment. You will oversee an expanding team of regional design leaders and vendor partners, synchronize priorities across functions, and surface the design innovations that demonstrably improve experience, perception, and retention.

This is not a detached creative leadership role. You will work on-site, coaching team members, inspecting installations, and refining operational protocols in real time. You will construct the infrastructure that scales exceptional environments — and ensure its sustained performance.

What You Will Be Doing

  • Establish and manage a national Space & Design function, encompassing organizational structure, vendor partnerships, and performance measurement systems
  • Develop and refine modular design standards, visual identity systems, and technical documentation to enable consistent deployment across varied campus environments
  • Synchronize design investments with capital expenditure strategy, enrollment projections, and operational limitations through evidence-based planning
  • Source, test, and implement design innovations that elevate student experience, parent perception, and staff satisfaction
  • Function as a strategic collaborator with cross-functional leadership

What You Won’t Be Doing

  • Producing design work manually — your responsibility is scaling the teams and infrastructure who execute
  • Pursuing isolated upgrades or prestige projects — every initiative must connect to measurable outcomes and return on investment
  • Functioning as an isolated creative authority — this position is deeply integrated with planning, implementation, and performance tracking
  • Managing remotely — you will travel frequently to maintain proximity to field execution and team coaching
  • Preserving existing practices — you will be accountable for continuously advancing and improving the function
  • Senior Vice President Design And Construction Key Responsibilities

    Establish and direct a scalable design function that guarantees every campus delivers a premium, brand-consistent, and pedagogically reinforcing environment — with quantifiable impact on experience, enrollment, and retention.

    Basic Requirements

  • 8+ years managing physical environments across a multi-site organization, with responsibility for at least 25+ locations
  • Direct experience designing spaces for UHNW clients or luxury brands, with demonstrated ability to identify premium quality in every detail
  • Demonstrated capability to recruit and lead a team, oversee external partners, and design a national deployment function
  • Track record creating and advancing standards-driven design systems for diverse site typologies
  • Strategic planning capability with cross-functional teams
  • Refined taste and judgment, combined with operational and financial rigor
  • Based in the U.S., authorized to work without visa sponsorship, and willing to travel 50% or more
  • Nice-to-have Requirements

  • Experience in rapidly scaling, brand-focused environments such as boutique hospitality, premium retail, or networked education
  • Portfolio evidencing both physical design excellence and the capacity to scale systems across a portfolio
  • Exceptional communication skills with experience presenting to executives, boards, or investors
  • About 2 Hour Learning

    Education is broken, but 2 Hour Learning is proving it doesn’t have to be. They’re tearing down the outdated one-size-fits-all model and replacing it with AI-driven personalized learning that helps kids master academics in just two hours a day.

    With students consistently ranking in the top 1-2% nationally and the top 20% achieving an astonishing 6.5x growth, they’re proving that smarter learning is possible. At 2 Hour Learning, it’s talent and performance that matter.

    They offer a dynamic, on-campus and remote-friendly environment where innovators, educators, and AI specialists can be a part of fixing a broken school system.

    2 Hour Learning is reprogramming learning for the AI era.

    Working with us

    This is a full-time (40 hours per week), long-term position. The position is immediately available and requires entering into an independent contractor agreement with Crossover as a Contractor of Record.
