You will translate state requirements into clear guidance for Product, Academic, Sales, and Marketing—ensuring we pursue the right opportunities, with the right positioning, at the right time.

External Relationships & Influence - Build and maintain relationships with: - - State Departments of Education - Adoption review committee members - Regional service centers - Influential literacy organizations and advisors - Represent inquirED in: - - Vendor briefings - Adoption showcases - State hearings and public review processes This is quiet influence, not lobbying—but it materially affects outcomes. 4. Product & Internal Readiness - Partner closely with Product and Academic teams to ensure: - - Adoption-ready submissions - Clear, defensible alignment documentation - Known gaps are identified before reviews begin - Act as the internal voice of the states by advising leadership on: - - Where the product is strong - Where adoption risk exists - When not to pursue an adoption due to misalignment 5. Cross-Functional Leadership - Act as the single source of truth for ELA state adoption strategy - Align Sales, Product, Academic, and Marketing around a shared state strategy - Train Sales on adoption-specific messaging and positioning Requirements Deep experience with ELA state adoptions (publisher, edtech, or state-facing role) Proven expertise in: - ELA standards and alignment - Adoption rubrics and review processes - Research-based instructional criteria (e.g., Science of Reading) - Strong cross-functional leadership skills - Ability to influence without authority and operate at executive level - Comfort navigating long sales cycles and political complexity Why Work For Us - Health & 401K: Employee-covered health care and retirement match - Flexible PTO & Company Closures: Flexible PTO and 12+ observed days off. - Chances to Connected: Biannual company retreats and optional local meetups - Remote Opportunities: Most positions are remote, supporting work-from-home flexibility - Perks and Stipend: Technology package provided, plus a home office stipend - Learning and Development: Educational and development opportunities, monthly Brunch and Learns, and more!

What We Do At Leading Educators (LE), we know that excellent teaching is the most important driver of student success. The moment a student steps foot in the classroom, their opportunity to learn depends on how prepared their teacher is to translate complex content knowledge, standards, and their knowledge of that student into lessons that help them learn deeply and apply their thinking to the real world. That’s a big lift, and it often happens alone. As a national nonprofit, we partner with school systems to overcome persistent instructional challenges, foster intentional collaboration and adult learning by design, and ignite new possibilities through systemic solutions at the intersection of teaching, talent, and technology. We work shoulder-to-shoulder with educators at every level of the education system to strengthen their instructional and leadership practices, bring a vision for excellent instruction to life with consistency, and ensure every student reaches their full potential.
