Communicate consistently with Directors, senior leadership, and cross-functional teams (HR, Finance, Education, Marketing).

Collaborate with senior leadership in licensing, staffing, marketing, and operational planning for new site development.
Ensure successful launch and smooth integration of new centres into the broader Kepler network.
