Victorian Selective Entry Resource Developer - Contour Education

Shape the core curriculum behind the Victorian Selective Entry program and take direct ownership of resources that drive student breakthroughs.

Contour TestPrep is seeking sharp, meticulous individuals to join us as a part time VSE Curriculum & Resource Developer (approximately 0.6 FTE), with hiring open across three dedicated streams: Mathematics, English, and Writing . In this role, you will look beyond standard content writing to produce, refine, and align the high-impact workbooks, homework packs, practice exams, and comprehensive worked solutions our students rely on. You will work directly from strategic plans set by the Head of VSE, transforming them into exam-aligned educational materials that maximize learning velocity.

This position carries a unique, broader responsibility than typical content roles, offering a direct pathway to an ongoing position for high performers. To keep your work deeply grounded in real-time student outcomes, you will continue teaching at least one VSE class in your subject stream for the duration of the secondment (compensated separately as a tutor). This structural feedback loop empowers you to serve as your own calibration mechanism, ensuring every piece of content performs flawlessly on the ground.

What You Will Do

You will be responsible to design, calibrate, and quality-assure elite, exam-aligned learning resources for your chosen subject (Mathematics, English, or Writing) while maintaining a direct, real-time connection to the classroom.

Resource production and workflow

• Produce premium workbooks, homework packs, practice questions, and complete worked solutions from blueprints provided by the Head of VSE.
• Follow our structured production workflow from initial question drafting through to review, feedback iterations, and final sign-off.
• Deliver all assigned materials consistently ahead of schedule to ensure seamless deployment across our classrooms.
• Communicate proactively with academic leadership regarding project timelines, tracking milestones, and expected delivery schedules.

Exam alignment and calibration

• Match question styles, command verbs, and stimulus materials precisely to what students encounter in the official exam.
• Calibrate question difficulty levels to accurately mirror or appropriately extend the selective entry exam standards.
• Ensure comprehensive coverage of relevant skills and content specific to the targeted year levels and exam subtests.
• Identify and raise any potential curriculum gaps or resource misalignments directly with the Head of VSE.

Quality assurance and error resolution

• Conduct rigorous proofreading to verify the absolute accuracy of facts, underlying logic, and subject calculations.
