[Resume Drop Only] Partner, Learning & Development Strategy

We are currently not recruiting for this position.

Who We Are

Transcend is a national nonprofit that helps communities reimagine and redesign schools so every young person can thrive in a rapidly changing world. Across the country, communities are recognizing that classrooms built for the industrial age aren’t preparing learners for what’s next. Instead, schools must be designed for continuous evolution: relevant, resilient, and ready for the future.

For more than a decade, Transcend has partnered with school and system leaders to build the capacity for bold, lasting change—change led by the people who live it every day. We’ve worked with nearly 500 schools and 200 districts serving over 225,000 students in 35 states. Together, we’ve seen what’s possible when communities lead redesign with proven methods, insight, and support.

From that work, we develop and share tools, research, and models that help schools everywhere make the leap to extraordinary learning—for every child, in every community.

The Opportunity For years, Transcend has partnered directly with communities to lead and facilitate multi-year school redesign journeys.

That work has taught us something important: lasting transformation doesn’t come from outside support alone, it comes from local leaders who are equipped to drive change themselves. That’s why Transcend’s School Design, Learning & Development team is investing in building the capacity of leaders and communities to lead this work directly, with less reliance on Transcend’s facilitation over time. This role sits at the center of that strategic shift by helping us design, scale, and bring to market the credentials, certifications, and capacity-building offerings that make community-led transformation possible.

As the Partner, Strategy for this team, you will sit at the center of multiple priorities. This role supports go-to-market strategy, leads the team's learning agenda, connects and coordinates across functions, and ensures the work progresses with clarity and momentum. It's a high-leverage role for someone who can operate at both the strategic and execution level - shaping direction one moment and driving follow-through in the next.

If you're energized by complexity, and thrive in bringing order, clarity, and momentum to a fast-moving team, this role is for you.
