You will manage daily correspondence, organize impactful admissions events, and keep applicant data accurate to support informed decision‑making.

• Attend and support all admissions events, including information sessions, shadow days, and community gatherings, both on‑site and virtually.

• Define admissions strategy or determine final enrollment decisions.
• Operate exclusively in an administrative capacity with no direct family engagement.
• Work within a slow‑moving, heavily bureaucratic structure.
• Prioritize relationship‑building at the expense of execution and follow‑through.

This role ensures that a frictionless, high‑conversion admissions process fuels robust enrollment and family satisfaction across all Alpha campuses.

• Background in education, as a teacher, in admissions, enrollment management, or a related field.
• 2+ years of customer‑facing experience in admissions, enrollment, events, or related roles.
• Strong administrative and organizational skills; you are highly reliable and detail‑oriented.
• High attention to detail and experience maintaining accurate applicant records or CRM data.
• Comfortable balancing remote work with in‑person campus responsibilities.
• Able to adapt quickly and thrive in a dynamic, mission‑driven environment.
• Authorized to work in the US and able to work in‑person in either San Francisco; CA, Santa Barbara; CA or NYC; NY.
