Who Would Be a Great Fit?

You don't need to be an education expert.

But you should be curious about how children learn, how schools are changing and how technology can make education better.

You should know how to take a simple thought from a founder, a student story or an education trend and turn it into a LinkedIn conversation people actually want to read and engage with.

If you believe good education content should inform, inspire and create conversations — not just fill a content calendar, we'd love to hear from you.

Please share:

- Resume/Profile

- 2–3 LinkedIn pages or profiles you have managed

- 3–5 examples of LinkedIn posts written by you

- Your monthly freelance retainer
