What are the responsibilities and job description for the Media Relations Strategist, 2 Hour Learning (Remote) - $150,000/year USD position at Trilogy?
You're not here to flood inboxes with press releases. You're here to build relationships that matter and place stories that change minds. If you're the kind of media strategist who understands the power of a well-timed pitch to the right person — and how earned coverage shapes public opinion — this role was built for you.
At 2 Hour Learning, we're transforming education by proving that kids can learn 2x faster in just 2 hours a day. Our schools aren't run by teachers but by Guides, and our students leave each day with not just academic mastery, but time for life. We've seen the results: top 1% test scores, thriving students, and parents who finally believe school works. Now, we need the right person to tell that story at scale.
This role is your chance to shape the public narrative of an emerging educational model that works. You'll work directly with our founder, MacKenzie Price, to craft and deliver strategic pitches that capture our essence: innovative, rigorous, and radically student-centered. We're not chasing vanity metrics. We're pursuing influence. If you've got the instincts of a journalist, the persistence of a publicist, and the heart of an educator, let's talk.

Own and execute a media relations strategy that builds national awareness and credibility for 2 Hour Learning by securing high-impact earned media coverage.
