Lead a Tutoring Center and Grow Your Career in Education

Think Zone is hiring a people-focused Tutoring Center Manager to lead our Redwood City Learning Center. You will run the center day to day, lead a team of tutors, build relationships with families, and help grow our local community.

This role is a strong fit if you love working with students, communicate clearly, and want to take ownership of a center. You do not need to have managed a team before, and you do not need sales experience. We will train you. Strong performers can grow from Tutoring Center Manager to Regional Manager and Regional Director.

About Think Zone

Think Zone is a growing network of Bay Area learning centers helping K–8 students build stronger math skills, confidence, and independent learning habits. We combine thoughtfully designed curriculum, technology-driven learning tools, and personalized in-person support. As we expand across the Bay Area, we are creating new opportunities for our team to grow with us.

Lead your center

• Oversee daily operations, scheduling, classrooms, and learning resources

Build relationships with students and families

• Build trusting relationships with students and parents
• Help families understand their child's learning progress
• Create a positive experience from a family's first visit through long-term enrollment

Help grow the center

• Be available for the full schedule listed above, in person in Redwood City
• Be legally authorized to work in the U.S.

Nice to Have

• Experience in customer success, hospitality, retail, sales, or team leadership
• Strong organization and the ability to juggle several priorities
