Educational institution and edtech publisher across K-12, higher ed, and corporate training
Grupo Positivo is a diversified education and technology conglomerate operating schools, publishing, educational software, and cultural venues across Brazil and 40+ countries. The hiring profile is almost entirely education-focused (113 of 160 active roles are teaching/curriculum), with a heavy intern and junior concentration—typical of institutional education models where staff turnover and seasonal onboarding dominate. Pain-point data shows internal friction around student acquisition, special-needs inclusion, and government procurement, suggesting growth constraints in both K-12 and solutions segments.
Founded in 1972 by educators, Grupo Positivo has evolved from a test-prep course and printing operation into a multi-division conglomerate. The group operates K-12 and higher-education institutions, an educational publishing division, educational technology products, printing services, and cultural/entertainment assets (Teatro Positivo and event centers in Curitiba). The organization serves institutional buyers (schools, universities), learners (students of all ages), and corporate/government clients seeking educational content and training solutions. With 5,001–10,000 employees and operations across Brazil plus 40+ countries, Positivo is a significant domestic player in Brazilian education infrastructure.
