Head of Admissions, Learning

LOCATION

NOTE:

We are hiring multiple candidates for this position. This is an in‑person role based at our campuses in Dallas‑Fort Worth, Santa Barbara, San Francisco, Orange County, and Palm Beach. Relocation assistance is provided.

Most admissions professionals are brought in to maintain the status quo. Your mandate is different: dismantle what doesn't work and build something more effective in its place.

2 Hour Learning condenses a traditional school day into two hours through AI‑driven, mastery‑based applications. No traditional teachers. No lectures. No time lost. Our students achieve learning gains at 2.6 times the national average—validated by MAP assessment data. The remainder of each day is dedicated to life skills, personal development, and substantive projects. This represents not merely an alternative approach to education, but a fundamentally more efficient, high‑impact system producing top 1% academic results in half the time.

Your role centers on leading complete‑cycle admissions for a designated campus, with autonomous control over your enrollment pipeline. No bureaucratic layers. No handoffs. No unnecessary complexity. You will convert interest into enrollment through rapid response, transparent outcomes, compelling tours, and selective evaluation. You will be the decisive factor in families choosing a school unlike anything they've encountered before.

If you're driven by velocity, substance, and the opportunity to represent a demonstrably superior product rather than abstract educational theory, this position is for you.
