Director of Admissions

Most enrollment roles are built to move volume. This one exists to protect standards.


Alpha is building one of the most ambitious school models in the world. Our campuses blend rigorous academics, technology-powered learning, and high standards for students and staff alike. Students consistently learn faster than national benchmarks, and the data backs it up. Afternoons are reclaimed for depth, independence, and real-world skill building. This model works. But it only works with the right families. That's where you come in.


You will own the admissions journey for a campus, from application through enrollment. This is not a handoff role. You are responsible for how families experience us, how clearly they understand the model, and whether enrollment decisions are made for the right reasons. You will assess fit, guide thoughtful conversations, and recommend "no" when that's the correct answer. The goal is not maximum enrollment. The goal is alignment.


We are open to candidates from premium service environments beyond traditional education: private schools, selective programs, luxury hospitality, executive support, premium membership organizations, or owner-operators who have personally managed high-value client journeys end-to-end. What matters is your ability to run a high-touch, multi-stage process with judgment, clarity, and follow-through. If you've spent your career delivering white-glove service where trust, discretion, and experience quality define the brand, this role will feel familiar. Apply now to bring that standard to work that matters.
