Salary: $45,000.00 Annually

POSITION SUMMARY

The Catholic High School Admissions Counselor manages a specialized recruitment territory focused primarily on private Catholic high schools. This role is responsible for building year-over-year enrollment pipelines by cultivating deep relationships with Catholic high school counseling departments, prospective students, and their families, as well as providing training and support to other admissions counselors with Catholic high schools they are serving in their assigned regions.

The ideal candidate will seamlessly articulate how Saint Martin’s academic rigor, campus ministry, and commitment to service align with and build upon the values-based secondary education the students have received. The role will also collaborate closely with events and communications coordinators to plan and host recruitment and yield events that honor and celebrate the Catholic Benedictine identity of Saint Martin’s University.

Saint Martin’s University is more than just a place of learning—it’s a welcoming community where students, faculty, and staff come together with purpose and heart. Founded in 1895 by the Benedictine monks of Saint Martin’s Abbey, we are grounded in the timeless Benedictine values of community, hospitality, and balance. These values, combined with a Saint Martin’s liberal arts education, shape our approach to education and daily life, encouraging students to think deeply, act with compassion, and serve with purpose.

As part of the Catholic Intellectual Tradition, we honor the integration of faith and reason, the dignity of every person, and a shared responsibility for the common good. Our mission is to form graduates who are not only intellectually curious and ethically grounded, but also deeply committed to building a more just and equitable world. At Saint Martin’s, we care about the whole person.

Our supportive campus culture is built to help students thrive—academically, personally, and professionally. We pay special attention to the needs of those who have been historically underserved, and we work intentionally to create an inclusive, respectful, and compassionate environment for all.

We warmly invite mission-driven individuals to join our community—not just to work here, but to be part of something meaningful. Together, we educate students who go on to make a positive difference in their lives, their communities, and the world.
