Education Manager

About the role

We’re looking for an Education & Learning Programmes Manager to design and deliver high-impact learning programmes focused on emerging technologies such as blockchain, AI, and digital public infrastructure.

You’ll lead academy-style initiatives and pilots, creating practical, well-designed learning experiences for public-sector teams, executives, regulators, students, and career changers. This is a hands-on role combining learning design, technical content, and facilitation, with real-world impact.

What you’ll do

Education Programme & Curriculum Design

• Design and maintain end-to-end education programmes on emerging technologies for multiple audience segments (e.g. public sector, executives, regulators, students, career changers).
• Define clear learning outcomes, pathways, and course structures tailored to each audience.
• Develop curricula components including syllabi, session plans, case studies, labs, and capstone projects.
• Ensure content remains current, relevant, and aligned with organisational priorities.

Content Development & Thought Leadership

• Produce high-quality educational materials such as explainers, technical guides, exercises, and case studies.
• Translate complex technical concepts into accessible, policy- and practice-relevant learning content.
• Contribute to thought leadership outputs (briefs, blogs, playbooks, presentations) supporting education programmes and partnerships.

Teaching, Facilitation & Delivery

• Facilitate workshops, lectures, webinars, and train-the-trainer sessions (online and in person).
• Adapt delivery style and depth for different audiences (e.g. hands-on sessions vs strategic briefings).
• Support guest lecturers and subject-matter experts with preparation materials and facilitation guidance.
• Gather participant feedback and use insights to improve programme quality.

Learning Platforms & Educational Technology

• Set up and administer learning management systems (e.g. Moodle, Canvas or equivalent).
• Configure courses, enrolments, assessments, and completion criteria for different programme types.
• Track engagement, completion, and learning outcomes using basic learning analytics.

Partnerships & Stakeholder Collaboration

• Work closely with internal teams and external partners (e.g. public institutions, universities, training providers).
• Support the identification, onboarding, and coordination of lecturers, trainers, and delivery partners.
• Contribute education expertise to partnership discussions, pilots, and programme launches.

Quality, Standards & Continuous Improvement

• Ensure programmes align with relevant ethical, accessibility, and data-protection standards.
• Regularly review and update content to reflect changes in technology, regulation, and best practice.
• Maintain clear documentation and version control for learning materials.

What we’re looking for

Must-have

• 5–8+ years in education programme design, learning & development, or developer education
• Strong working knowledge of emerging technologies (e.g. blockchain, AI, digital systems)
• Experience designing and delivering learning for mixed technical and non-technical audiences
• Confident facilitator (online and in-person)
• Solid understanding of adult learning and instructional design
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
• Fluent English

Nice to have

• Experience with governments, public sector, universities, NGOs, or multilaterals
• Exposure to executive education or regulator training
• Experience with LMS platforms and learning analytics
• Additional languages (Arabic, French, Spanish, Portuguese)

Why join

• Work on globally relevant education programmes with real societal impact
• High autonomy and ownership in shaping learning initiatives
• Fully remote, international environment
• Opportunity to build and scale academy-style programmes across regions
