[Hiring] Math Curriculum Development Manager @Modern Classrooms Project

Role Description

The Math Curriculum Development Manager will support the design, creation, and improvement of classroom-ready materials that help teachers meet their learners’ needs. The Manager will help MCP shape the future of math education in our partner districts and beyond.

The Manager will also support Modern Classrooms Project’s standards work: teacher-facing resources that unpack state math standards into plain language. While different work, this calls for the same care: reading a standard closely, saying clearly what it asks of students, and building materials a teacher can use immediately.

This position requires excellent project management and communication skills, as well as a passion for the pedagogy of mathematics. The Manager will work on the Content Production team, reporting to the Director of Customized Curriculum Solutions.

Please note: This is a grant-funded position with an anticipated one-year term from the hire date. As with any grant-funded role, continuation beyond that period, or a change to the timeline, depends on the availability of continued grant funding. We’ll communicate with the person in this role as early as possible if funding plans change.
