With Microsoft as a strategic partner, Scholarion is being positioned as the go-to K–12 platform in the market.

  • Champion the customer voice in product and partnership conversations, ensuring school needs influence roadmap and collaboration
  • Align workflows and training to the academic year and school operations
  • Develop frameworks, playbooks, and systems that scale across schools, Microsoft partners, and customer segments.

  • Are commercial and metrics-driven, thinking in terms of NRR, churn risk, adoption, and client lifetime value
  • Communicate clearly, stay calm under pressure, and love designing clean, simple systems
  • Want autonomy, trust, and ownership of a function that will shape the success of Scholarion in market
  • You enjoy the challenge of being creatively courageous.
