About The Position

Every student and educator deserves to feel safe at school—every single day. As districts face increasing safety expectations, regulatory complexity including Alyssa’s Law, and public scrutiny, the need for trusted, integrated campus safety solutions has never been greater. Navigate360 is expanding Campus360 to serve as a unified, modern alternative to legacy and point-based safety and incident response systems. We are seeking a Director of School Safety Strategy, Technology, & Partnerships to serve as a trusted expert, advisor, and external ambassador for our Campus360 platform. This role is designed for a highly credible school safety professional — someone who understands firsthand the realities of district-level decision-making, emergency preparedness, law enforcement coordination, and public accountability. In this role you will play a critical role in influencing adoption, building trust, supporting complex district evaluations, and strengthening Navigate360’s reputation as a category leader in school safety preparedness and incident management. This is a high-impact, market-facing leadership role focused on relationships, credibility, and real-world alignment. In school safety, trust is earned — not marketed. Districts evaluating critical safety systems need more than product features; they need confidence, operational alignment, and a partner who understands their world.
