**Qualifications**
- Post-secondary graduate (education, business, STEM, or related fields)
- Proven ability to work with children ages 5-14
- Comfortable engaging with parents and selling services
- Strong communication, leadership, and organizational skills
- Familiarity with STEM education or maker culture is a plus
- Self-starter with an entrepreneurial mindset and strong accountability
