At Teach For India, we’ve built a nationwide movement of leaders who are working relentlessly to end inequity in education. It’s been twelve years since we began this journey and today we have 900+ Fellows leading classrooms impacting 32,000 children across the country, Through our Fellowship, we infuse the largest pipeline of driven, skilled talent into the educational ecosystem and have a growing movement of 3400+ Alumni. Our Alumni work at all levels of the education system from teaching, teacher training, school leadership and community empowerment to education technology, policy, governance, media as well as in the private sector. Cumulatively, our Alumni have founded 150+ organisations in the social sector with 200 of them occupying senior leadership and CXO positions across organisations.
77% of our Alumni continue to work in the development sector impacting 33 million, or 1 in 10 children across India, thereby demonstrating their commitment to our vision - One Day All Children Will Attain An Excellent Education. Collectively, these numbers represent the immense potential of our model and the power of our broader community - a potential to catalyze a movement for education reform and redefine what’s possible for children from the most vulnerable backgrounds. Our work will only be complete once we have built a movement of leaders large enough to ensure that every child in India is receiving an excellent education.
On Staff, we pride ourselves as being a passionate, idealistic, mission-driven team of 200+ individuals who are committed to the pursuit of excellence and practicing the values that shape us as people.. We have been recognised by Great Places To Work and are an equal opportunities employer, providing compensation and benefits at the top of the nonprofit sector.
Program Managers play a critical role in the continuous support and development of Fellows across cities. They serve as managers and coaches for a group of 16-18 Fellows towards creating individuals who drive excellence in the classroom and a deep sense of clarity and conviction in the long-term movement. Program Managers support Fellows through training, facilitating spaces for collaboration, regular classroom observation, continuous feedback and coaching cycles. As the first point‐of‐contact between Fellows and the organization, they are also responsible for cultivating a strong and productive ecosystem in the city and a positive team culture across their team and the larger city cohort.
1) A challenging yet flexible workplace in which every individual employee’s staff journey is tracked for excellence and leadership development.
2) A work environment in which employees’ holistic well-being is a core priority, enabling people to be their best selves.
3) The opportunity to be part of one of the most established and visionary movements in the education sector in India, which is at a pivotal point in terms of expanding its scale and outreach while working with changemakers across the country.
4) Access to connections and resources from the global Teach For All network that includes partner organisations spanning over 50 countries across 6 continents.
5) Remuneration that is competitive with Indian NGO pay scales and a benefits package that includes extensive medical insurance and maternity coverage for both parents.
The Program Manager plays the critical role of developing our Fellows as teachers and leaders thus ensuring a developmental journey for our Fellows as well as quality education in classrooms. In order to enable that, she/he will focus on the following areas:
Primary Responsibilities (~70-80% of the time)
Coaching towards Outcomes
Building a Strong City Culture:
Role as ambassadors of the movement (10-20% of the time)
Note: With time, our Program Managers build mastery over some of these practices and often are more efficient at executing these pieces. Also, with time, the role of the PM might also evolve from only inputting to owning parts of the city ecosystem.
