In this position, you will guide each family's experience from initial inquiry through enrollment, making certain that every touchpoint embodies Alpha's precision, approachability, and high standards. Your work will include managing day-to-day correspondence, organizing impactful admissions events, and keeping applicant data current and reliable for informed decision-making.

If you excel in dynamic, purpose-driven settings—where attention to detail, responsiveness, and structured execution directly influence family experience and enrollment success—this hybrid role combines remote flexibility with consistent in-person participation at admissions activities.

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

• Experience in education, teaching, admissions, enrollment management, or a comparable area
• 2+ years of client-facing experience in admissions, enrollment, events, or similar functions
• Proven administrative and organizational capabilities; you are dependable and precise
• Exceptional attention to detail and a track record of maintaining accurate applicant records or CRM systems
• Comfortable managing both remote responsibilities and on-site campus duties
• Capable of adapting swiftly and succeeding in a fast-moving, mission-focused environment
• Authorized to work in the US and available to work in-person in San Francisco; CA, Santa Barbara; CA, or NYC; NY
