Manager, Assessment Content (Remote, US)

Why You'll Love This Role

We are seeking a Manager, Assessment Content to own assessment content strategy, quality, and execution across all subject domains. Reporting to the Director, Assessment and Analytics (A&A) Portfolio, you'll lead a team of Assessment Content Designers and Content Contributors. You'll also be the team's chief operator — building the repeatable processes, tooling expectations, and cross-team consistency that allow assessment content to scale. This is a leadership role: you will not be writing items day to day, but your judgment will shape every item that ships and will set the bar for quality and experimentation.

What You'll Be Doing

Strategy and roadmap

• Content strategy. Own the assessment content strategy and roadmap in partnership with the Director, Assessment and Analytics Portfolio and the A&A Product Manager.
• Roadmap execution. Drive execution of the assessment content roadmap; translate quarterly production plans into team assignments, milestones, and vendor scopes.
• Content coverage. Ensure content gaps are identified and closed across all subject areas, including academic content areas (ELA, Math, Science, and Social Studies) and non-academic content areas (Social Skills, School Climate); prioritize across domains based on roadmap and customer needs.
• Standards stewardship. Monitor state and national standard changes across all content domains; ensure Content Leads are maintaining current mappings and escalate cross-domain risks proactively.

Team leadership

• Lead the assessment content team. Manage Assessment Content Designers and Content Contributors — set direction, coach for growth, run regular 1:1s and performance reviews, and develop the bench.
• Production management. Scope, plan, and manage large-scale projects with Content Designers, freelance contributors, and third-party vendors to meet aggressive production targets.
• Quality framework. Own the contributor and vendor quality framework across all content domains; conduct calibration sessions and performance reviews directly where no Content Lead is in place.
