Full Job Description
Stellic is growing, and we're looking for an Initiative Delivery Lead to own end-to-end delivery of strategic initiatives across a portfolio of university partners. This isn't project coordination — it's program ownership. You're the person who looks across everything a partner has in motion, understands how each piece connects, and makes sure it all lands. ABOUT US We're building a future where every student can move through their education with clarity, confidence, and purpose. Our platform transforms the student experience, giving them the tools they need to make the right decisions about their degree plans, track their journey, and build an education and career path that's truly their own. Stellic is a fast-growing startup backed by leading social impact investors, partnering with top institutions like Cornell, Columbia, UVA, and Ohio State to support over 1 million students across 7 countries. As we scale to serve more universities worldwide, we remain deeply committed to this mission, driven by our values, and committed to building a high-performance team that's here to make a lasting difference on both students' lives and higher education. ABOUT YOU You don't wait for clarity — you create it. A partner walks in with a goal like "we want better student outcomes" and you walk out with a scoped initiative, defined success metrics, clear owners, and a finish line everyone agrees on. You hold delivery together across competing priorities and multiple concurrent workstreams, and when one thing shifts, you immediately map the downstream impact on everything else in flight. You think at the program level, not just the project level. You care more about what a project is actually accomplishing than about checking it off a list — and that comes through in how you show up for partners, how you build relationships, and how you handle the hard conversations. You hold yourself and others to their commitments without damaging the relationships that make the work possible. A
