Crossover is the world's #1 source of full-time remote jobs. Our clients offer top-tier pay for top-tier talent. We're recruiting this role for our client, Stealth Educational Startup. Have you got what it takes?
Are you driven to revolutionize education by broadening charter school opportunities for countless students? Join our dynamic education startup as a seasoned government relations leader in California, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Florida, Georgia, or North Carolina.

This isn't about lobbying for policy shifts - it's about achieving tangible business outcomes through targeted relationship-building and coalition development in your region.
We are revolutionizing education with a model that yields exceptional results. We're poised to expand, but we need someone to dive deep into their state's educational landscape, navigate intricate approval processes, and cultivate the relationships essential for amplifying our impact. You'll collaborate directly with state education leaders while rallying community support to extend our model to more students.
