Content Manager (Teacher-cum-Manager)

Job Description

About the role:

We are looking for a dynamic, high-energy Content Manager who embodies the perfect blend of academic excellence and operational leadership. This is not a desk-bound administrative role; it is a position for a "Teacher-Leader" who understands what makes great educational content and has the grit to build a world-class team from the ground up. 

The ideal candidate is someone who is as comfortable delivering a lecture as they are managing a high-performance content team. 

Key Responsibilities:

Strategic Talent Acquisition & Partnerships:

• Industry Scouting: Identify and headhunt top-tier educators and subject matter experts (SMEs) across the industry. 
• Influencing & Onboarding: Act as the primary brand ambassador to pitch our vision to elite teachers, convincing them to collaborate on high-impact content projects. 
• Relationship Management: Build and maintain long-term professional networks with academic influencers 

Academic Leadership & Teacher Management:

• Quality Mentorship: Provide pedagogical feedback to educators to ensure content aligns with our brand’s quality and engagement standards. 
• Workflow Coordination: Manage schedules, contracts, and delivery timelines for external and internal teaching staff. 
• Conflict Resolution: Act as the bridge between academic talent and production requirements, ensuring a harmonious working environment. 

Content Team Operations:

• Performance Management: Lead the internal content creation team by setting clear, aggressive KPIs and monthly targets. 
• Execution Excellence: Oversee the end-to-end content lifecycle—from brainstorming and scripting to final output—ensuring 100% on-time delivery. 
• Process Optimization: Continuously refine workflows to increase content output without compromising on educational integrity. 

Required Qualifications & Skills:

Professional Background:

Experience: 4+ years of experience in the EdTech industry, with a proven track record in both teaching and team management. 

Education: Master’s degree in Education, Management, or a specialized core subject (Science, Math, Humanities, etc.). 

Subject Matter Expertise: Deep understanding of curriculum design and instructional coaching. 

Technical & Soft Skills

Proactive Ownership: A "get-it-done" attitude with the ability to anticipate roadblocks before they happen. 

Passionate Advocacy: A genuine love for education and a belief in the transformative power of quality content. 

Growth Mindset: A "hungry" approach to professional challenges; someone who views targets as benchmarks to be surpassed, not just met. 

• Persuasion Skills: Exceptional verbal and written communication skills with the ability to negotiate and influence top-level talent.
