The daily standard keeper — one branch, no compromises
Full-time · Kuwait

Reporting to: Director of Operations
Role: Branch Manager
Department: Operations & Education
Reports To: Director of Operations
Contract: Full-time, permanent
Location: Single branch (Salam or Shuhada or Salwa)

About BeCurious:
BeCurious is a premium Finnish-method preschool operating across three branches in Kuwait — Salam, Shuhada, and Salwa. Built on the belief that curiosity drives learning, BeCurious combines a strong curriculum with a structured operating system.

Each branch must operate at the same standard — every day, in every classroom. The Branch Manager is the person who makes that real on the ground.

The Role:
The Branch Manager owns the day-to-day operation of one BeCurious branch.

This is not a coordination role. It is not administrative oversight. The Branch Manager ensures that every session, every teacher, and every family experience meets the BeCurious standard — consistently, without exception.
You are responsible for execution. What is designed at system level must work in your branch — through people, discipline, and attention to detail.

Responsibilities:
Daily Operations — One Branch, Full Standard:
  • Own the daily running of the branch from opening to closing.
  • Ensure all sessions run on time and to standard.
  • Execute all SOPs exactly as designed in the BeCurious OS.
  • Maintain a clean, safe, and fully prepared environment at all times.
  • Ensure readiness for inspections at any time.
Team Management:
  • Manage all teachers and support staff within the branch.
  • Lead daily briefings and ensure team alignment.
  • Hold staff accountable to performance standards.
  • Support teacher development through coaching and feedback.
  • Ensure no teacher leads a session without required training completion.
Teaching & Classroom Quality:
  • Monitor classroom delivery daily.
  • Conduct regular classroom observations.
  • Ensure lesson plans and weekly planning are completed and followed.
  • Ensure child observation records are completed properly.
  • Maintain visible application of the Curiosity Lens Framework.
Parent Experience:
  • Ensure a high-quality, consistent parent experience.
  • Handle parent concerns professionally and promptly.
  • Ensure proper communication standards are followed.
  • Support tours and convert interest into enrollment in coordination with Admissions.
Admissions Support:
  • Support branch-level enrollment targets.
  • Ensure tour readiness and professional delivery.
  • Follow up with prospective families when required.
  • Maintain accurate information flow to the admissions system.
Inventory & Supplies:
  • Monitor branch-level inventory and usage.
  • Coordinate with Purchasing Manager for supply needs.
  • Ensure materials are available and organized for all sessions.
  • Reporting & Compliance.
  • Report daily and weekly updates to Director of Operations.
  • Maintain accurate records (attendance, incidents, staff data)
  • Ensure incident reports are completed within required timelines.
  • Ensure compliance with all regulatory requirements.

What This Role Is Not:
  • The Branch Manager does not operate without structure — SOPs are followed, not reinvented.
  • This is not a passive supervisory role — you are actively managing every day.
  • The Branch Manager does not avoid accountability conversations.
  • This role is not about being liked — it is about maintaining standards.

You Are the Right Person If:
You will thrive in this role if you:
  • Are highly organized and present on the floor.
  • Can manage people with clarity and firmness.
  • Pay attention to detail others miss.
  • Take full ownership of outcomes, not excuses.
  • Can maintain energy and consistency every day.

This role is not right for you if you:
  • Prefer planning over execution.
  • Avoid difficult conversations with staff or parents.
  • Struggle with structure and process discipline.
  • Need constant direction instead of taking ownership.

Qualifications and Experience:
Required:
  • Minimum 3–5 years experience in education, preschool, or operations.
  • Experience managing a team.
  • Strong organizational and leadership skills.
  • Arabic and English proficiency.
  • Based in Kuwait or able to relocate immediately.
Preferred:
  • Experience in early childhood education.
  • Experience in a structured, multi-branch environment.
  • Familiarity with school systems (Odoo, Brightwheel, etc.).
What BeCurious Offers:
  • A clear operating system — you execute with clarity, not guesswork.
  • A real leadership role at branch level.
  • Direct impact on children, families, and team quality.
  • Growth as the organization expands.
  • Compensation.
  • Competitive, based on experience. Discussed at offer stage.

How to Apply:
  • Send your CV and a short note answering:
  • “What does a high-performing branch look like in a preschool, and how have you contributed to it?”
  • Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis.
