Professional Development Specialist (North/East US)

Role Description: As a Professional Learning & Community Engagement Consultant, you will split your time between two high-impact areas:

1. Designing & delivering exceptional professional learning experiences for K–12 educators,

2. Serving as a regional face of our Pioneers and educator community - driving in-person engagement, social connection, and educator joy.

This is a field-forward role for an experienced educator, PD leader, and community builder who’s energized by meeting people where they are—literally. You’ll work in close collaboration with the CX, Sales, and Marketing teams, and report into the Professional Learning function, with day-to-day prioritization supported by our Pioneer & Community Lead.

This role is based out of the North & East regions of the US, and you must live in that region.

In this role, you will be responsible for driving to the following outcomes:

Professional Learning Development & Delivery (50%)

• Facilitate engaging onsite and virtual PD sessions tailored to district needs.

• Develop and refine training content, including live and asynchronous materials.

• Execute surprise-and-delight field moments and represent MagicSchool at events.

• Support educator engagement, storytelling, and Pioneer program activation regionally.

Consultative Solutioning & Regional Strategy (10%)

• Collaborate on pilots and adoption plans with Sales, CX, and Solution Architects.

• Capture local insights to shape product, PD, and campaign strategies.

Cross-Functional Collaboration (10%)

• Coordinate with cross-functional teams to align regional and national efforts.

Experience & Qualifications:

Required:

• Based in the Northeast / Mid-Atlantic (or willing to relocate).

• 5+ years experience in education, instructional coaching, or edtech PD/community roles.

• Dynamic facilitation and public speaking skills—comfortable with both educators and district leaders.

• Demonstrated passion for educator engagement, storytelling, and grassroots brand-building.

• Experience supporting edtech tools and navigating school or district implementation processes.

• Excited to travel regionally up to 75% during peak seasons and 50% year-round.

Travel Expectations

A passion for travel is essential. To be successful in this role, you must be comfortable spending significant time in schools and districts conducting in-person trainings.

Travel demands will vary, with up to 75% travel during peak seasons and up to 50% throughout the rest of the year.
