Join The Genius Team: Role For Psychology Graduates
At Genius, we don’t recruit people who are merely looking for a job; we’re looking for people who want to make a real difference in a child’s life and who believe in the power of education to do just that.
Psychology graduate? Explore educational leadership
The Education Leader role is full-time salaried employment with training, never an internship. It is well suited to psychology graduates: have a real impact by coaching and mentoring students individually, work with students’ teachers and psychologists to ensure their success, and connect with families to assess their children’s needs.
“Becoming a part of the Genius team has been absolutely life-changing! Who knew that growth could be this exponential? Genius has equipped me with a new learning and growth-focused outlook on life.
