Curriculum Project Manager

Job description

The **Curriculum Project Manager** is responsible for turning Summit K12’s curriculum priorities into clear, executable project plans and ensuring work moves predictably through the Curriculum Lifecycle—from requirements and architecture through gold-standard prototype, production, quality assurance, implementation/evidence, and continuous improvement. The role creates the operational structure, visibility, coordination, and accountability required for curriculum teams to deliver high-quality work on time and at scale. Working closely with the Executive Director of Curriculum & Learning, Domain Directors, Principal Curriculum Designers, Learning Experience Designers, Senior Curriculum Writers, Curriculum Writers, Editors, Product Management and Operations, Engineering, Assessment Design, Creative Studio, Professional Learning, and external production partners, the Curriculum Project Manager coordinates timelines, dependencies, handoffs, resources, risks, decisions, and readiness checkpoints across multiple concurrent initiatives. This is not an academic design role. The Curriculum Project Manager does not own curriculum architecture, pedagogy, domain standards, gold-standard prototypes, or academic acceptance criteria; academic leaders and instructional designers own those decisions. The Curriculum Project Manager makes the operating system visible and executable so the right work reaches the right people at the right time, unresolved issues are surfaced early, and projects advance only when required inputs and readiness criteria are in place.
