Future Opportunities: Operations Team

Destine Prep Charter SchoolSchenectady, NY
11d

About The Position

At Destine Preparatory Charter School, our Operations Team is the behind-the-scenes powerhouse that keeps the school running smoothly, joyfully, and with precision. If teachers are the heartbeat, Ops is the backbone, legs, hands, and all the tools you’d find in a really well-equipped Swiss Army knife. We’re the people who solve problems before anyone knows they exist. We’re the ones who can jump from tech troubleshooting… …to planning a family event… …to helping a staff member… …to sorting data… …to handling a vendor call… —sometimes all before lunch. We’re flexible. We’re fast. We’re fun. And we proudly call ourselves the Transformers of Destine Prep: always ready, always adapting, always stepping up to meet the moment. This is an evergreen pipeline posting for candidates who want to be considered for future roles across Operations, HR, Marketing, Technology, Facilities, Finance, Food Service, Enrollment, and more. If you’re the kind of person who reads that list and thinks, “Yes. I love being useful. Throw me in — I’ll figure it out,” then you belong here.
