One such product that launched in 2020 is the MB/A (Morning Brew Accelerator) program, a virtual 8-week program designed to accelerate the careers of top-performing professionals.

What you'll do:

• Lead and own the user growth strategy for all our current and future education programs 
• Own all growth metrics for education, and provide regular reporting on the overall health of the education business to the team
