Young Scholars Academy (Contact hiddenLog in or sign up to apply.

is a virtual enrichment school for twice-exceptional (2e) and neurodivergent students. We are looking for someone to help us scale from 400 families to 2,000+.

The "Ramp-Up" Model
We pay a rate of $12.00/hr for high-level expertise. To ensure this role scales with the business, we use a phased approach:
Phase 1: 20 hours per week ($960/mo base). Focus: High-leverage Ads and Retention.
Phase 2: Up to 40 hours per week ($1,920/mo base). Availability to increase hours occurs when the Academy reaches 850 active families.

Key Responsibilities
The Expansion Engine: Design automated sequences to move families from single classes into Multi-Course bundles.
Acquisition: Manage and optimize Meta/Google Ads with a focus on ROAS.
Retention Marketing: Own the re-enrollment rate by highlighting student wins.
Strategic Upmanagement: Pushing back on the CEO to stay on the 90-day growth plan.

Compensation & Benefits
Rate: $12.00 USD per hour.
13th Month Pay: Mandatory annual benefit (pro-rated).
Holidays: 10 paid Philippine Regular Holidays per year.
Leave: 6 paid days per year, with half a day accrued monthly.
Bonuses: $3.00 per class expansion; $2.50 per new family; $0.50 per re-enrollment.

Qualifications
Expert in Meta/Google Ads, Squarespace, and ConvertKit.
Neuro-Affirming: You must deeply understand and advocate for the strengths-based model.
Technical "Owner": You prioritize ROI over "busy work."

THE GROWTH & INCOME ROADMAP
This role is designed for a strategic "Owner." As you build the "Growth Machine" and the Academy expands, your compensation scales with the revenue you generate.

BONUS STRUCTURE BREAKDOWN
Your income grows through three specific "Engine" drivers:
Expansion Bonus: $3.00 for every additional class an existing family adds.
Growth Bonus: $2.50 for every brand-new family that joins the Academy.
Village Bonus: $0.50 per active family, per semester for successful re-enrollment.

13th Month Pay: Mandatory benefit equivalent to one month's basic salary (pro-rated based on hours).
Paid Holidays: 10+ paid Philippine Regular Holidays per year.
Paid Leave: 6 paid days per year, accrued monthly.

HOW TO APPLY
We only hire those who understand our mission and think strategically. Do not send a generic cover letter. Please include the following in your application:
The Opening Phrase: Start with the exact phrase: "The Engine runs on Strengths."
Neurodiversity Reflection: Describe your understanding of the difference between a "medical model" of neurodivergence (fixing deficits) and a "strengths-based" model (cultivating brilliance). Why is it critical that our marketing strictly aligns with the latter?
The Strategy Scenario: If we have 400 families in a single $800 class, identify one specific automated "Nurture Sequence" you would build to move 10% of them into a Multi-Course Bundle.
Office Setup: Describe your home office, internet reliability, and power outage backup plan.
