Part-Time Job Search Research Assistant (Remote)

About Me:
I’m a passionate K12 instructional leader with 20+ years of experience in school administration, coaching, teaching, and curriculum design. Currently, I’m managing a full-time leadership role and solo parenting a toddler while conducting a targeted job search. I’m seeking a sharp, organized research assistant to handle the legwork of finding and tracking job openings so I can focus on applying.

• Independent schools within a 45-minute commute of Tarrytown, NY
• Learning & Development roles
• Education nonprofits and education policy organizations
• Verify postings are current and actively accepting applications
• Record key details for each live opening: organization, contact name, position title, posting date, application deadline, and link
• Deliver findings weekly via a shared Google Sheet

Who You Are:

• Detail-oriented and resourceful
• Comfortable navigating multiple job boards and organizational websites
• Reliable with strong organizational and communication skills
• Able to work independently and meet weekly deadlines

How to Apply:
Send a brief note about your background and experience. Complete a sample search covering all listed categories and format your results in a simple spreadsheet. Spend about an hour on this task to demonstrate your skills. Please note: A completed sample search is required to be considered.
