Instructional Design

The Instructional Design department produces the learning materials that are used in our schools across our communities. This department has team members based in multiple NewGlobe support offices, organized into teams that each work on a portfolio of projects. Driving student achievement through the development of rigorous content is the number one priority. One core tenet of the approach is less lecture (traditional among many schools in our markets) and more student practice. Consistent, rigorous opportunities to refine his or her skills are crucial to a child’s learning progression. The Instructional Design department structures all lessons, textbooks, and other materials to ensure this.

About the Role

The Project Manager will work with the Instructional Design team in charge of creating courses and assessments for all NewGlobe programmes. Getting the content to run in each partner program requires a number of administrative functions that are additive per programme. The Project Manager will help create and own the operational systems necessary to scale Instructional Design content and products to a growing number of programmes.

What You Will Do

Enter and review information across related components of each programme’s yearly academic plan to ensure alignment and accuracy.
Create and maintain trackers, systems and files to ensure that our team’s academic programming runs as intended and changes are managed.
Work laterally and collaboratively with Managers to keep projects and information organized.
Communicate across multiple departments to capture and update information and follow up on processes.

What You Should Have

2 or more years of experience in administrative or project management work
Competency in Microsoft and Google Office Suite products, particularly Excel / Sheets
Demonstrably excellent organizational skills and extreme orientation to detail
Ability to source and keep track of information from a variety of departments and resources
Curiosity and persistence to understand complex systems
Ability to build effective communication and accountability systems with in-person and remote colleagues
Initiative to notice areas of improvement in current systems and iterate on new approaches until they are refined

You’re also

A detailed doer – You have a track record of getting things done. You’re organized and responsive. You take ownership of every idea you touch and execute it to a fine level of detail, setting targets, engaging others, and doing whatever it takes to get the job done. You can multi-task dozens of such projects at once and never lose sight of the details. Likely, you have some experience in a start-up or other rapid-growth company.
A networking mastermind – You excel at meeting new people and turning them into advocates. You communicate in a clear, conscientious, and effective way in both written and oral speech. You can influence strangers in the course of a single conversation. Allies and colleagues will go to bat for your ideas. You have an existing network from prior experience in the country, preferably in the regulatory, education, or business sectors.
A creative problem-solver – Growing any business from scratch comes with massive and constant challenges. On top of that, NewGlobe works in often fragile, sometimes volatile low-resource communities and with complex government systems. You need to be flexible and ready to get everything done effectively, quickly, and affordably with the materials at hand.
A relentless advocate –The children we serve and teachers we empower never leave your mind. You know them, get them, have shared a meal with them (or would be happy to in the future). You would never shrink back from shaking a parent’s hand or picking up a crying child, no matter what the person was wearing or looked like. Every decision you make considers their benefit, experience,
and value.
A malleable learner –You believe you can always do better. You welcome constructive criticism and provide it freely to others. You know you only get better tomorrow when others point out where you’ve missed things or failed today.
A curious investigator – You ask why a lot. You don’t just take what you see and accept it. You wonder why it is that way, and are aware that the world we see is created by human choices and actions – and it could be different. You wonder, and see the world as wonderful even when you want to change a part of it that is unjust.
