Rising Academy Network

The context:  Across the developing world, more children than ever are in school – but they are not learning. A recent study estimated that less than 1% of school children in Sub-Saharan Africa attend a school where the teaching meets basic standards of quality. At Rising Academies, we’re changing that, and we want your help. Our mission is to create the best schools and the most powerful teaching and learning tools for the people that need it most. We’re one of the fastest-growing quality-focused education companies in Africa, and a Certified B Corp®.  About us:  Founded in Sierra Leone in 2014, we’ve spent over a decade crafting a unique blend of high-tech and low-tech learning solutions proven to dramatically improve student outcomes that elevate teaching quality at scale. 7 RCTs have shown that the students we support learn, on average, 2.4x faster each year than their peers in comparable schools. Today, we serve more than a quarter of a million students across 1,000 schools in West and East Africa through three integrated and complimentary channels:  - Pioneering Great-Value Private Schools: Our innovative networks of private schools deliver best-in-class results for children while developing highly scalable new technologies and approaches. - Scalable Government Partnerships: We partner and collaborate with local and national governments across Africa to transform the quality of public school systems at scale. - High Impact Solutions for Partners: We offer our proven high-impact solutions to other education providers and schools to improve school performance & increase outcomes.  Our innovative approaches combine expertly designed curriculum materials, personalized learning experiences, intensive teacher coaching and actionable data for school leaders. You can learn more about our solutions here: https://www.risingacademies.com/oursolutions  About the role: We are looking for an experienced EdTech Implementation Consultant to help strengthen how student-facing technology is introduced, tested, and scaled across our schools and partner programs. Over an initial 6–9 month consultancy, the consultant will support implementation improvement across existing tools, help assess new student-facing technologies, and build practical systems that make future rollouts more effective and scalable. This role sits across instruction, implementation, and systems design. The consultant will review current edtech approaches, identify what is working, and help build stronger tools, processes, and recommendations that improve adoption, student engagement, and learning outcomes. The EdTech Implementation Consultant will: - Review current student-facing edtech programs and identify key strengths, gaps, and improvement opportunities. - Support teams to improve how technology is used in classrooms by strengthening implementation guidance and practical support tools. - Assess new edtech tools and contribute to decisions on what is worth piloting or scaling. - Develop frameworks, playbooks, and resources that improve consistency across rollouts. - Support planning around implementation needs such as devices, basic infrastructure, and cost considerations. - Capture lessons from different country contexts and help turn them into shared internal knowledge. - Work closely with teams to solve implementation challenges and improve execution. - Share clear recommendations with leadership on how Rising can strengthen its edtech implementation approach over time. Location and reporting: This is a remote consultancy role with expected travel across key markets, including Rwanda, Sierra Leone, and Ghana, depending on program needs. The consultant will report to the Chief Academic Officer (CAO) and work closely with colleagues across Academics, Product/Technology, Programs, and Country Leadership. Application deadline:  Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis until the position is filled. Early applications are encouraged, given the target start date of 15 April 2026.
