Floating Center Director – Tallahassee
Full-Time | Multi-Center Leadership | Education & Operations Focus
Are you passionate about education, developing great instructors, and helping students build confidence in math?
Mathnasium is looking for a Floating Center Director to support our learning centers throughout the Tallahassee area. This is a unique leadership opportunity for someone who enjoys variety, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and wants to make an impact across multiple teams rather than at just one location.
This role has a strong focus on educational leadership, student progress, instructor development, and center operations, while also providing leadership coverage and support wherever it is needed most.
Who We Are
Fortis Franchise Group is the #1 Mathnasium franchisee in the United States, operating 70+ Mathnasium locations across seven states and serving more than 8,000 students.
We’ve been recognized by Mathnasium for Best Turnaround of a Resale and Top Multi-Unit Operator by AUV, and we’re continuing to grow.
At Fortis Franchise Group, our mission is simple: change lives through math. We believe exceptional student outcomes begin with strong educational leadership, well-developed instructors, and a consistent experience for every family.
The Opportunity
As a Floating Center Director, no two days will look exactly the same.
You’ll work across our Tallahassee-area Mathnasium centers, partnering with Center Directors and instructional teams to strengthen the educational experience, develop instructors, support students and families, and provide additional leadership wherever it is needed.
One day you may be leading the instructional floor and coaching instructors. Another day you may be reviewing Learning Plans, conducting assessments, meeting with parents about student progress, or providing Center Director coverage at another location.
This position is ideal for an educator who is also a strong leader — someone who can walk into a center, quickly understand what the team needs, and jump in to make an impact.
What You'll Do
Educational Leadership
- Ensure students receive effective, engaging instruction utilizing the Mathnasium Method
- Review student assessments and educational needs to determine appropriate instructional priorities
- Support the development, implementation, and ongoing management of student Learning Plans
- Monitor student progress and identify opportunities for adjustments or additional support
- Support post-assessment processes and ensure Learning Plans remain aligned with student needs
- Help centers maintain consistent Mathnasium educational and instructional standards
- Identify educational opportunities and partner with center leadership to develop solutions
Floor Management & Instructor Development
- Lead the instructional floor during student sessions
- Ensure effective student placement, instructional flow, and student-to-instructor ratios
- Coach instructors on instructional techniques, student engagement, and the Mathnasium Method
- Observe instructor performance and provide clear, actionable feedback
- Support the training and development of new instructors
- Help develop Lead Instructors and other emerging leaders
- Model excellent instruction, professionalism, and leadership
- Step in to provide direct instruction when needed
Student & Family Experience
- Build strong relationships with students and families across the Tallahassee centers
- Conduct student progress conversations and educational meetings with parents
- Clearly communicate student progress, Learning Plans, and educational recommendations
- Partner with families to address educational questions or concerns
- Help ensure students remain engaged, challenged, and excited about their progress
- Create a welcoming, professional, and consistent experience for families at every location
Assessments & Enrollment Support
While this position is more heavily focused on education than a traditional Center Director role, you'll still be equipped to support the complete family experience.
- Conduct student assessments and clearly explain results to families
- Make educational recommendations based on each student's individual needs
- Support enrollment conversations as needed
- Help new families transition successfully from assessment and enrollment into instruction
- Partner with Center Directors to support student retention and long-term family relationships
- Provide additional family and enrollment support during periods of high center demand
Multi-Center Leadership & Operations
- Provide leadership support across multiple Tallahassee-area Mathnasium centers
- Step into centers during leadership vacancies, PTO, training, staffing transitions, or other periods requiring additional support
- Serve as Manager on Duty when providing center coverage
- Quickly adapt to the needs, priorities, students, and team dynamics of different locations
- Partner with Center Directors and District leadership to identify opportunities for improvement
- Help reinforce consistent systems, processes, and expectations across Tallahassee locations
- Support center opening and closing responsibilities as needed
- Assist with special projects, training initiatives, and educational priorities across the market
What We're Looking For
- Bachelor's degree required
- 1–2+ years of experience in education, tutoring, instructional leadership, learning center management, or a related field
- Strong math skills and confidence supporting instruction through upper-level mathematics
- Experience working directly with children and families
- Strong leadership and instructional coaching skills
- Ability to train, develop, and provide feedback to instructors
- Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
- Strong organization and attention to detail
- Ability to manage multiple priorities and transition effectively between different center environments
- Ability to remain calm, professional, and solutions-focused in a fast-paced environment
- Strong judgment, empathy, tact, and diplomacy
- Ability to work independently while collaborating closely with Center Directors and District leadership
- Working knowledge of Microsoft Office and Google Workspace
- Reliable transportation and the ability to travel regularly between Tallahassee-area Mathnasium locations
- Flexibility to work afternoons, evenings, and occasional weekends based on center needs
What Success Looks Like
A great Floating Center Director doesn't simply fill gaps — they make every center they support stronger.
Success in this role means helping create:
- Consistent, high-quality instruction across Tallahassee locations
- Strong, confident, and well-developed instructor teams
- Effective instructional floor management
- Purposeful Learning Plans that reflect individual student needs
- Consistent student progress and engagement
- Strong communication and relationships with families
