Most admissions functions are designed for volume. This one is designed to safeguard quality. Alpha is developing a school model of exceptional ambition. Our campuses integrate rigorous academic expectations, technology-enabled instruction, and elevated standards for both students and educators. Students advance at rates that exceed national norms, and the results are measurable. Afternoons are reserved for deeper exploration, autonomy, and applied skill development.
The model is effective. But effectiveness depends entirely on the right families. That is your mandate. You will direct the complete admissions process for a campus, beginning with application and concluding with enrollment. This is not a role defined by handoffs. You are accountable for how families perceive us, how thoroughly they grasp the model, and whether enrollment decisions rest on sound reasoning.
You will evaluate compatibility, facilitate informed dialogue, and advise against enrollment when circumstances warrant it. The objective is not enrollment volume. The objective is strategic alignment. We welcome candidates from premium service sectors outside conventional education: independent schools, selective admissions programs, luxury hospitality, executive client management, high-end membership institutions, or entrepreneurial operators who have personally guided high‑stakes client experiences from inception to completion.
What is essential is your capacity to execute a refined, multi‑phase process with discernment, precision, and accountability. If your professional background centers on delivering exceptional service where trust, professionalism, and experiential quality define reputation, this role will be a natural extension.
- Directing the complete enrollment experience for prospective families, from initial outreach through final onboarding.
- Facilitating consultative conversations to assess alignment before proposing pathways or advising on enrollment.
- Overseeing 20+ concurrent family engagements across varied enrollment stages, with disciplined tracking and follow-up protocols.
- Conducting campus visits, student shadow days, and enrollment discussions that articulate outcomes, expectations, and ideal candidate profiles with clarity.
- Sustaining precise CRM and enrollment documentation (Hub Spot and SIS) to enable forecasting, priority management, and service excellence.
- Employing transactional or aggressive closing strategies.
- Accepting families who lack alignment in order to meet enrollment targets.
- Overseeing large teams or navigating multi-layered decision hierarchies.
- Distributing responsibility for the family journey across multiple functions.
- Operating remotely. This position is campus-based and requires in‑person presence.
