About the Role

The Company is seeking an Associate Head of School to join its dynamic educational community. This pivotal role, created to work closely with the Head of School, will focus on guiding educational programs, faculty development, and day-to-day administration to uphold the institution's mission of combining rigorous academics with values. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to define the position and will be expected to have a depth and breadth of experience akin to that of a school head, with a particular emphasis on extensive knowledge of academics and student-facing programs. The role is ideal for a Jewish individual with experience in both Judaics and secular subjects education, who can reinforce the high expectations of the school and is familiar with administrative functions including budgets, marketing, enrollment, fundraising, and HR.

Applicants for the Associate Head of School position at the company should possess excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to supervise, support, and motivate faculty and staff. The role requires a warm, engaging, and inspiring communicator who can advocate for the importance of a Jewish education combined with excellent secular studies. The ideal candidate will have a vision for Jewish education and the ability to manage a day-to-day school environment while ensuring the institution remains a leader in the world of Jewish education. Familiarity with the full range of PK-12 grade levels is a plus, and prior experience as a school head or a senior leader in a successful Jewish school is highly desirable. The company is a financially solid institution with ample resources, and the Associate Head of School will play a key role in maintaining its position as a leading educational establishment.
