We provide family-friendly accommodations, an innovative education system that travels with you, and vibrant communities of like-minded individuals. </span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"><span style=\"color: rgb(72, 65, 63)\">Since our founding in 2021, we’ve rapidly expanded to eight locations across Europe, Asia, and Latin America, bringing together over 200 team members from diverse backgrounds. Our growth reflects our commitment to transforming the experience economy and making a meaningful impact on how families integrate work, education, and exploration into their lives.</span><span style=\"color: rgb(72, 65, 63)\"><br><br></span></span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"><span style=\"color: rgb(72, 65, 63)\">At Boundless Life, we believe in the power of community and the importance of a holistic approach to education. Our programs are designed to inspire curiosity, build resilience, and nurture a global perspective. </span>We combine a project-based, place-based learning with the freedom to live and learn anywhere, for families who want more than a traditional school can offer. Our Education Centres are the heart of everything we do.<br><br></span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt\">🎯 <span style=\"font-weight: bold\">Role Overview</span></span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Syros is one of our most established and beloved locations — a flagship of what the Boundless model is. The Education Centre Director who joins here will inherit something that is already working, and will be responsible for taking it further.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">This is a role for a leader who can come into an existing team, earn trust quickly, raise the bar through coaching and consistency, and build on strong foundations without disrupting what is already good. You are not here to reinvent. You are here to lead, deepen, and improve.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"><br>As Education Centre Director you are the educational leader of the Syros location. You are responsible for how the learning happens — not what is taught (our global curriculum team owns that), but how it is brought to life by your team. You know your educators deeply, coach them continuously, hold high standards, and ensure every cohort delivers on the Boundless promise. You report to the Head of Education Excellence and work alongside the General Manager who leads the broader location operations. </span><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">The role demands someone who is energised by that scale, not overwhelmed by it.</span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt\">💼 <span style=\"font-weight: bold\">What You'll Do<br><br></span></span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic\">Educator Leadership and Team Development</span></p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Lead, coach, and manage an established team of educators through structured 1:1s, regular classroom observations, and direct, specific feedback</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Set clear expectations for performance and conduct from day one, address gaps independently, and build individual development plans for every member of the team</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Hold a high bar consistently — this means celebrating what is working and naming what is not, without waiting for a formal review cycle</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Build and maintain a team culture that is engaged and resilient through an intense cohort calendar and a demanding daily schedule</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Contribute to hiring decisions alongside the Head of Education Excellence when the team expands or changes<br><br></span></li>\n</ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic\">Curriculum Execution and Educational Quality</span></p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Ensure the Boundless curriculum is implemented consistently and with fidelity to our global methodology and standards — you do not design the curriculum, you make sure it comes to life as intended</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Ensure project-based and place-based learning happen on the ground, incorporating the extraordinary context of Syros meaningfully and in alignment with global curriculum standards</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Observe classes regularly and give educators specific, actionable feedback that leads to real change</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Surface implementation challenges to the global education team and bring solutions alongside them<br><br></span></li>\n</ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic\">Family Relationships</span></p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Serve as a trusted, visible presence for families — including those who are returning to Boundless and have high expectations of the experience</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Handle family concerns and escalations independently and with confidence, without unnecessary escalation to global leadership</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Contribute to a strong admissions and intake experience that sets every cohort up well<br><br></span></li>\n</ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic\">Running the Education Centre</span></p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Team administration: holiday approvals, leave tracking in BambooHR, payroll review, absence management, onboarding and offboarding educators</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Family communication and engagement: daily queries, individual family meetings each cohort, pre-arrival webinars, ongoing Toddle and Slack communication, parent emails, and coordination of the learning celebration</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">ECAs and field trips: defining the strategy, collaborate in identifying local partners, managing logistics, risk assessments, execution, oversight, and accounting</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">EC operations: health and safety checks, emergency planning and drills, first aid kit upkeep, supervise facilities cleanliness, ensure supplies and inventory are up to date, invoices, and ad hoc projects like classroom setup or conversions</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Food and daily logistics: catering liaison, menu planning, managing allergies and restrictions, lunch coordination</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Events: movie nights and other community events, including organisation, childcare, and communications</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Platform and information management: ensuring educators and the team have access to all relevant systems and student <span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">information,</span> maintaining student profiles, managing calendars</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Local stakeholder liaison: community partnerships, local authorities, and supporting any legal or compliance matters specific to the location<br><br></span></li>\n</ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">The Syros structure is established, which means systems and rhythms are already in place. Your job is to run them well, improve what can be improved, and progressively shift your own time toward coaching, quality, and people development. That is the direction the role is heading — and part of what you are here to help make happen.<br><br></span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt\">🧠 <span style=\"font-weight: bold\">You'll Be Valued For<br><br></span></span></p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"><span style=\"font-style: italic\">You are a people developer.</span> You have managed a team, conducted observations and given specific feedback, had hard performance conversations independently, and genuinely made the people around you better. Coaching your team is not a task on your list — it is the work.</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"><span style=\"font-style: italic\">You know what excellent curriculum execution looks like.</span> You can observe a learning environment, see clearly what is and is not working, and give an educator specific and honest feedback. You understand PBL and place-based learning as practices, not just frameworks.</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"><span style=\"font-style: italic\">You earn trust in established environments.</span> You do not arrive and immediately try to change everything. You listen first, build credibility, and lead from within the culture — while still being willing to raise the bar and name what needs to improve.</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"><span style=\"font-style: italic\">You are exceptional with families.</span> Syros has returning families who love this community. You can hold difficult conversations, manage high expectations, and maintain trust even when something has gone wrong.</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"><span style=\"font-style: italic\">You are energised by scale and intensity.</span> Sixty to seventy students, an international team, a packed cohort calendar, and a community of families who are living and working alongside each other. This is the environment you thrive in.</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic\">Greek language skills or a connection to Greece are a genuine asset for this role.<br><br></span></li>\n</ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt\">📈 <span style=\"font-weight: bold\">What Success Looks Like<br><br></span></span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">At three months: you have earned the trust of the team, completed a full round of classroom observations, every educator is clear on what is expected of them, and families feel the leadership of the EC is strong and present.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">In the long term, success in this role is measured against three things:</span></p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">85% or more of families report satisfaction with their overall Boundless Education experience, measured through our termly NPS and satisfaction survey</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">85% or more of educators and facilitators in the centre meet or exceed their role-specific impact metrics</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Staff turnover is low and staff engagement is high, with 80% or more of the team reporting high engagement in our termly pulse survey<br><br></span></li>\n</ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt\">🤝 <span style=\"font-weight: bold\">Who You'll Work With<br><br></span></span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">You report to the Syros General Manager, who owns location operations, with a dotted reporting line to the Head of Education Excellence, who leads educational quality and development across all Boundless locations globally. <br><br></span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt\">🌟 <span style=\"font-weight: bold\">Why Join Us<br><br></span></span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Syros is one of Boundless Life's flagship locations: a stunning Greek island, a strong and returning family community, and a team that cares deeply about the work. You will have real responsibility, real autonomy, a platform that is already performing well and the chance to make it even better.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Beyond the work itself, joining Boundless means being part of a mission-driven team that genuinely believes education can be done differently. You will be part of a model that does not exist at scale anywhere else in the world — place-based, project-driven, and designed for families who have chosen a different kind of life. That is not a small thing to be part of.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">You will also benefit from:</span></p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">A discount on Boundless Education tuition for your own children</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">A global community of educators, families, and team members who care deeply about what they are building</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Real ownership of your location and your team's development</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">The chance to grow as the organisation grows — this role has significant room to evolve<br><br></span></li>\n</ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt\">✅ <span style=\"font-weight: bold\">What to Expect Next<br><br></span></span></p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Interview with our recruiter — to get to know you and share more about the role and what we are looking for</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Personality assessment — to help us understand how you work and how you are likely to show up in this environment</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Interview with the hiring manager — a deeper conversation about your experience, leadership approach, and how you handle the situations this role demands</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Interview with the Head of Education Excellence or COO — to assess alignment with our educational vision and operational direction</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Interview with the Head of People — to assess alignment with Boundless Life and clarify any doubts about the role and company</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Case study — for selected candidates, a practical scenario exercise to see how you think and how you lead</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">References — structured conversations with people who have seen you manage and lead</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Offer<br><br></span></li>\n</ol>\n<p><span style=\"color: rgb(72, 65, 63); font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic\">The process might change slightly as we go along, we will keep you posted at all times.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">📖 <span style=\"font-weight: bold\">Want to Know More?</span> <a href=\"https://boundless.life\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">boundless.life</a></span></p>",
