    Company Description

    OUR MISSION

    Inspiring what's possible for every learner.

    Every great company has a culture that makes it unique; a compelling sense of purpose that drives people to show up to work each day. For Macmillan Learning, that purpose is to inspire what's possible for every learner. We are energized by that mission and by our role as a positive force in education. We know that what we do makes a difference and we work everyday to unlock the potential of every learner, actively participating in each one's educational life with our course materials and digital tools. As a privately-held, family-owned company, we provide our employees with the freedom to focus on what's most important: the students.

    Job Description

    The Digital & Innovation Teaching and Learning Strategist works closely with the associated Program Managers by providing partnership and a feedback loop with VIP Math & Stats instructors/adoptions and potential adoptions. This individual is a strong presenter and oral and written communicator, collaborating effectively across various teams; externally with instructors and users, and cross-functionally with product development, sales, marketing, and technology. This role is key to demonstrate, implement, and troubleshoot Math & Statistics resources/tools by working in consultation with instructors to deliver pedagogically created courses that are instructor/school specific.
