Education Podcast Marketing & Outreach Director — Help Make a Difference in Public Education

Part-Time | Remote (U.S.) | Flexible Schedule

Help us amplify voices that matter in public education.

At a time when public education is increasingly caught in the crossfire of political and cultural divisions, we believe two things are more important than ever: bringing people together across their differences and celebrating the educators who make a lasting difference in young people's lives.

That's the mission behind our two podcasts, Courageous Conversations about Our Schools and Teacher Stories.

We're looking for a creative, enthusiastic, and mission-driven individual to help us expand the reach and impact of these podcasts. If you care deeply about public education, believe in the power of storytelling and constructive dialogue, and have the digital marketing skills to connect important ideas with the people who need to hear them, we'd love to hear from you.

Courageous Conversations about Our Schools is an award-winning podcast that brings together educators, researchers, thought leaders, and people with differing perspectives to explore some of the most challenging issues facing public education. Rather than fueling polarization, we seek to model curiosity, thoughtful disagreement, and the courage to listen to people whose views differ from our own.

Teacher Stories
, launched in 2018, celebrates the extraordinary influence teachers have on their students and communities. Through moving personal stories, the podcast reminds listeners why excellent teaching matters and why teachers deserve greater recognition, respect, and support.

Together, these podcasts seek to enrich public understanding of education, build bridges across differences, and inspire people to strengthen our schools.
