Current Openings
You’re the person who is already in the room before a project has a name. You hear about a bond or a modernization plan and start asking who you know there, who you don’t yet, and what that district is really trying to do for its students. You’d rather build five real relationships in an account than rely on one good contact, and you never leave a meeting without a next step on the calendar. If you want to be the reason a district chooses a long-term partner over a vendor, and you want that work to help more students and educators get better places to learn, keep reading. This is what it looks like to be an Education Market Leader at Kay-Twelve.
You're the person a project turns to when nobody else can see all the moving pieces at once - the one who can hold a client's trust, a construction schedule, and a seven-figure budget in the same hand without dropping any of them. If you'd rather own the outcome than just track the task list, and you like being the calm, steady point of contact when a room full of stakeholders needs one, keep reading. This is what it looks like to run projects at Kay-Twelve.
You're the person who makes sure nothing falls through the cracks between everyone else's job. You can jump from a quote to a purchase order to helping the Learning Strategist prep for a workshop to fielding a vendor's question, all in the same afternoon, and you're just as comfortable talking to a manufacturer as you are to a client. If being the connective tissue on a project team - internally and externally - sounds like exactly what you're good at, keep reading. This is what it looks like to be the right hand to the Project Manager at Kay-Twelve.
You're the person a district turns to when they need someone who can translate ‘this is how kids actually learn here’ into a plan a design team can build. You'd rather sharpen someone else's vision than chase your own, and you know when to lean in and when to let the Project Manager run the room. If educational philosophy means more to you as something you put into practice than something you write about, keep reading. This is what it looks like to be the Learning Strategist at Kay-Twelve.
You're the person who can take someone else's vision for how a space should feel and make it real - down to the manufacturer, the finish, and the number that has to work for the business, too. You'd rather own a design solution start to finish than hand off a concept and walk away, and you know how to direct another designer's work without needing the word ‘manager’ in front of your title to do it. If holding design intent and gross margin in the same hand sounds like the job you've been doing informally for years, keep reading. This is what it looks like to lead design at Kay-Twelve.
You're the person who turns someone else's approved concept into the file, the finish schedule, and the spec sheet the rest of the team can actually build from - and you'd rather get the details exactly right than argue about the big idea. You take direction well, you never let a deadline sneak up on the team, and you're proud of work nobody sees until it's perfect. If documentation is where you do your best thinking, keep reading. This is what it looks like to run design production at Kay-Twelve.
You're the person clients remember on move-in day - the one who makes sure the truck shows up, the crew knows the plan, and the punch list gets closed before anyone has to ask twice. You'd rather solve a delivery problem at 7am than explain it at a status meeting, and you know how to keep a dozen moving parts on schedule without losing your cool. If getting a finished design safely and completely installed is the kind of finish line you love crossing, keep reading. This is what it looks like to lead installation at Kay-Twelve.
