Everyday Speech is a no-prep digital curriculum designed to accelerate the acquisition and generalization of social, behavioral, and communication skills for PK-12 learners of diverse ability levels. The MTSS-aligned curriculum combines evidence-based video modeling, interactive web games, and digital and printable worksheets to make it easy for special educators, speech-language pathologists, and other student support services specialists to support every student and every tier. Everyday Speech is trusted by 55,000 educators across 5,000 districts for one-on-one interventions, small groups, and whole-class lessons that engage students and help build resiliency.

Everyday Speech is right for you if:

You care about making a positive impact.

1. End each day knowing that your work had a direct impact on the well-being of hundreds of thousands of at-risk students across the world. Project success means more than just shipping features - it means improving the lives of students and educators.

You value being a part of a company that takes care of its team.

1. Not only do we have extremely happy team members, we also have incredible perks. Participate in our health/wellness and retirement benefit offerings, and between having every other Friday off (3-day weekends!) and our flexible PTO plan, that elusive work-life balance is an actual thing here.

You want to work for a true, remote-only company.

1. We’ve never had an office and never will. Our team is spread across 11 countries and 4 continents. We take remote work seriously and know how to support a distributed team. We give you the flexibility to work in a way that’s best for you, but still have high standards and accountability.

You want to join a startup that is growing rapidly *and* sustainably.

1. We have launched new products, maintained NPS scores of 70+, maintained eNPS (internal, employee score) of 80+, rapidly grown our team, and exponentially increased our user base, all over the last few years. Yet, as a fully bootstrapped company, our growth is organic and sustainable. Our focus is delivering value to students and educators, not paying back investors.

As a member of the Operations Department, the Talent & Experience Manager is the champion of Everyday Speech’s unique culture. You’ll report directly to the COO, and you will be responsible for leading key employee-facing programs that drive connection, engagement, and growth. This role focuses on the relational and experiential side of the employee journey.

The ideal candidate is extremely values aligned:

1. We start with empathy— in the work we do and the people we do it with. Our strength comes from a culture that values candidness, trust, and valuing our teammates as whole human beings. We care, challenge, and communicate. We are serious about our responsibility to educators, who rely on us every day.
2. We ruthlessly prioritize. We don ’t just say no to the obvious stuff, we say no to the things that feel important in the moment because we understand anything we say yes to is inherently saying no to something else.
3. We create momentum. We don’t let the small stuff hold us back. We learn by shipping. We know most actions are reversible and that action always wins in the long run. If all else fails, bias towards action.
4. We are fearlessly objective. We don't do things just because we're "supposed to." We constantly ask "why" and don’t let conventional norms define our efforts. We're not afraid to seek answers, even if that means discovering we were wrong. We focus on what delivers results, regardless of the source.
5. We exercise agency. We have the ability to create systems that don’t yet exist to get what we need or to solve problems no one has identified. If something isn’t working, it’s within our control to fix it.
6. We’re driven to grow. We set ambitious goals because we want to maximize our impact. We embrace challenges and take risks, seeing failures as opportunities to learn and improve. We seek out feedback and coaching and thrive in environments that push us.

In this role, you will:

1. Act as a champion for our company values and culture, ensuring employees feel supported, recognized, and heard.
2. Help drive improvements in how we attract, onboard, grow, and retain our team members, shaping both the systems and the experiences that define our workplace.
3. Lead and support high-impact employee experience programs that foster growth, connection, and engagement across the organization:
4. Learning & Development: Drive initiatives that support employee growth, including operationalizing our Grow value, facilitating mentorship programs, enabling managers, and following up on Individual Growth Areas.
5. Hiring & Recruiting: Own full-cycle recruitment, ensuring an outstanding experience for job candidates and developing our employer brand. You’ll work closely with hiring managers to facilitate a seamless process including: job descriptions, phone screenings and interviews, ATS management, and ownership of compliance processes (eVerify, I-9 forms, background checks).
6. Onboarding: Deliver a welcoming, consistent onboarding experience. Maintain SOPs, lead training sessions, and ensure ongoing check-ins to support new-hire success.
7. Training: Oversee our Learning Management System (LMS) and support the development and delivery of training programs across the organization.
8. Engagement, Culture, & Recognition: Lead employee experience and manager effectiveness surveys, and create action plans in response to employee feedback. Develop and manage employee recognition programs, morale-boosting initiatives, and perks.
9. Events: Plan and facilitate company events and meetups, including logistics, internal communications, and team coordination.
10. Employer Branding: Help shape and maintain our employer brand, ensuring a standout, values-aligned candidate experience.
11. Employee Experience Committee: Facilitate committee meetings, track initiatives, and help drive progress on employee experience priorities.
12. Work closely with the People Ops Manager and larger Operations team on projects and initiatives impacting the entire company.
