About Think Zone

Think Zone is a fast-growing Bay Area learning center focused on providing personalized and effective math education for K–8 students.

We believe great education starts with great people. As we expand across the Bay Area, we're looking for motivated individuals who want to grow with us and develop their careers in education, business operations, and leadership.

About the Role

Are you a recent graduate or early in your career and looking for an opportunity where you can make an impact, develop leadership skills, and take on meaningful responsibility?

As a Learning Center Manager, you'll receive training and support to learn how to operate and grow a successful learning center. You'll work directly with students, families, tutors, and our HQ teams while gaining hands‑on experience across business operations, customer experience, marketing, team leadership, and community engagement.

You don't need to come in knowing how to manage a learning center. We're looking for someone who is proactive, people-oriented, eager to learn, and excited to grow into a leadership role.

No previous management experience required. We’re looking for motivated early‑career candidates who are excited to learn, take ownership, and grow into future leaders within our organization.

What You'll Learn & Do

Grow Your Center & Community

Learn about your local community, schools, students, and families

Build relationships with parents, schools, and community partners

Help introduce Think Zone to more families through events, referrals, partnerships, and local outreach

Support prospective families from their first trial class through enrollment

Work with our Growth and Marketing teams to develop creative ideas for growing your center

Manage Center Operations

Learn how to manage the day‑to‑day operations of a learning center

Coordinate class schedules, tutors, students, and center activities

Create a welcoming and positive experience for students and families

Build relationships with parents and regularly gather feedback

Help monitor student progress and ensure families receive a high level of support

Learn how to recruit, onboard, and support tutors with guidance from our HQ team

Provide ongoing feedback and support to your center team

Develop your communication, coaching, and people‑management skills

Help create a positive, energetic, and accountable center culture

Build Something From the Ground Up

Think Zone is growing, which means you'll have the opportunity to do more than simply follow an established routine.

You’ll work closely with our curriculum, operations, marketing, HR, and training teams to improve processes, test new ideas, and help shape how our learning centers operate as we expand.

Who We're Looking For

You may be a great fit if you:

Are a recent graduate or early-career professional looking for your first leadership opportunity

Enjoy working with children, families, and people

Are outgoing, positive, and comfortable starting conversations with new people

Take initiative instead of waiting to be told what to do

Enjoy solving problems and figuring things out

Are organized, dependable, and able to manage multiple priorities

Are excited to learn about business operations, marketing, customer experience, and team management

Want to build a long‑term career in education, operations, or leadership

Qualifications

Bachelor's degree required

Strong communication and interpersonal skills

Based in the Bay Area and available for full‑time, in‑person work

Mandarin proficiency is preferred but not required

Previous experience in education, tutoring, customer service, retail, sales, student organizations, internships, or team leadership is a plus — but not required

New graduates are encouraged to apply.
