Who We Are

NewGlobe supports visionary governments to transform public education systems, the cornerstone of a prosperous, equitable, and peaceful society.

With a comprehensive system transformation platform and data-driven educational services, NewGlobe delivers rapid and dramatic improvements in learning outcomes at state and nationwide scale. Through building impactful partnerships and programmes, NewGlobe ensures that all children have access to an education that will develop their full potential and create a foundation for growth and prosperity. 

NewGlobe leverages more than a decade of educational experience and proven impact in integrated school management, teacher professional development, instructional design innovation, technological system support, child-centered classroom practice, and parent engagement -- all grounded in learning science -- to ensure each teacher is empowered to engage children in transformational learning, and all children have the opportunity to develop to their full potential. Every day, NewGlobe supports governments to solve what were once seen as intractable problems, and by doing so, ensures this generation will be able to grow up to lead more fulfilled lives, while simultaneously building economic prosperity for themselves, their communities, and the globe. 

NewGlobe’s high-touch, intensive professional development programs, along with integrated school management, teacher support, and assessment software, enable schools to succeed. NewGlobe works within state and national curriculum and syllabi, ensuring all children are empowered to learn their own history, and master local content, while being globally competitive in mathematics and languages. The science of behaviour change and the science of learning is at the foundation of all programming. 

NewGlobe works with urgency because youth quickly becomes adulthood and relentlessly because improvement requires continuous problem-solving. NewGlobe is honoured to serve and to help rebuild trust in public systems. 

NewGlobe’s work is all encompassing and will challenge you to use your full mind, and heart, each day. We need bright minds who want to be part of building a new globe -- a more equitable globe -- to join us.

Finance

The Finance group partners with country and global leadership to achieve the financial sustainability of our operations and make our mission come true. We provide strategic partnerships to global leadership on raising capital and actionable feedback on our financial performance. We are continually focused on judicious use of resources whether for each one of our territories or for the entire organization.

Across our rapidly scaling multi-unit enterprise, we provide leadership to build a world-class financial infrastructure. This includes the design and development of financial systems, policies, procedures, and provision of shared services for financial operations by a centralized team.

About the Role

This role is critical as we expand to new countries and scale at an unprecedented rate. A finance person understands that credibility and trust are built on consistent accuracy. They don’t view a number as “just a number” but instead ensure they understand what it means so that they can help us profitably grow. While mistakes are inevitable, they are personally bothered by any mistake and so strive hard to minimize them. The Financial Analyst should love building Excel models that are efficient and well-designed and dream of SUMIF formulas in their sleep. The most successful analyst will be curious to dig into the business and need to master the details. Because we are a small finance team, the candidate should be comfortable transforming ambiguity into solid planning models and actionable insights. The Financial Analyst shouldn’t view the role as just a job but should appreciate that we are on a mission and must do whatever is required to get the job done.
