Director of Registrar Services, Alpha; Remote

"the Great Educational Equalizer"

— Philosopher Johnathan Bi, on Alpha School

Alpha is hiring.

The best registrar leaders are not measured by the problems they solve. They are measured by the problems their teams never have.

At Alpha, you will own the registrar function across a rapidly growing network of schools, leading the people, systems, and operational standards that ensure enrollment, records, compliance, testing, and accreditation support scale alongside the organization.

Families need a seamless path from admissions through enrollment. School leaders need accurate records and reliable reporting. Accrediting bodies and state agencies need confidence that requirements are being met. Senior and Associate Registrars need clear processes, strong leadership, and systems that allow them to perform at a high level. You will be responsible for making all of those things true simultaneously.

This role sits at the intersection of operations, compliance, enrollment, and leadership. You will lead and develop the registrar team, serve as the escalation point for complex enrollment and compliance matters, oversee accreditation and regulatory readiness, partner with admissions and school leaders, and build the workflows, controls, and systems that allow Alpha to continue growing without sacrificing quality.

This is not a role for someone who wants to personally handle every enrollment, transcript request, or student record issue. It is for a leader who enjoys building scalable operations, developing strong teams, and creating the infrastructure that prevents problems before they occur.

If you want to own an entire function, shape how registrar operations scale across multiple campuses, and leave a lasting operational footprint on a growing school network, we want to hear from you.
