👋 About the Role
As an Educator HR Generalist, you will serve as a trusted partner to thousands of educators within the Zen Educate community. This unique role blends essential HR functions with a hands-on focus on our orientation and training programs to ensure our educators are prepared, safe, and empowered to deliver the best possible outcomes for their students.
You will be at the forefront of the educator experience, balancing high-impact onboarding with the behind-the-scenes HR operations that maintain our high standards for safety and compliance.

👋 About Zen Educate
Zen Educate is a technology company that matches schools with temporary educator staff. Our mission is to change the world of education recruitment. Schools spend over $9bn a year on temporary educators, with over $2bn per year of that spent on fees that take money out of the education system. By leveraging the latest technology, we purpose built a platform that helps schools to pay less while educators earn more.
We want students to have access to the best education possible, and we go the extra mile to find, onboard, match, and coach incredible educators that deeply care about their students. We wake up every day on a mission to care more. We care more about our schools. And we care more about our educators.
This is your chance to make a difference and join a high growth tech startup on the ground floor. We are a collaborative company, and the career growth opportunities are endless if you are someone willing to dive in, be entrepreneurial, and do whatever is needed to get the job done. We are passionate about learning and development, and will invest in both your personal and professional growth.
We have recently raised our Series B funding of $37mil, the largest round in European EdTech last year. This is an exciting opportunity to make a difference and be part of a high growth start-up that is expanding rapidly in the UK and US markets!
