Description

Great schools start with great leadership. We are continuously building a pipeline of strong school leaders who are passionate about developing educators, partnering with families, and creating thriving school communities. If you are an experienced leader who believes deeply in the power of high-quality education, we would love to connect.

Guidepost Montessori is a community of educators who are driven by a deep desire to bring about widespread change in education today. We believe that the traditional method of education used in most schools is antiquated, outdated, and broken. To meet the needs of today's students and to bring about true progress in the world around us, we need an education model that fosters independence and develops competent, capable, action-oriented thinkers and change agents. To that end, we are committed to dramatically increasing the amount of high-fidelity, authentic Montessori programs, not only in the U.S., but around the globe!

We are looking for a leader who shares our passion for the Montessori method and has the talent and perseverance required to quickly grow enrollment, attract and retain great staff, build a strong parent community, and ensure the educational experience for each child in every classroom is of the highest standard.

A competitive salary of $60,000-70,000 plus bonus
Health, dental, and vision insurance
Paid time off and paid holidays
100% tuition discount for two children at any school within our network (we serve children 3 months through 6 years old)

Strong organizational skills and attention to detail with a focus on results
Exceptional written and verbal communication skills
An aptitude for creating a warm and benevolent team culture
