Family Engagement Specialist

$30 per hour

Crossover for Work

You’ve moved past support positions where achievement is measured by ticket closure rates. You're seeking a role where you truly understand the families you work with—where you can anticipate what they need, acknowledge their progress, and serve as a reliable partner in meaningful work. GT Anywhere operates as a virtual school designed for gifted learners prepared to advance at their own pace. We pair AI-driven curriculum with personalized coaching to deliver an experience that balances academic rigor with genuine human connection. This model succeeds only when parents feel genuinely supported, well-informed, and seen as true partners—not processed through a standard service flow. In the role of Parent Success Partner, you will take ownership of parent relationships. Rather than waiting for issues to surface through support channels, you'll initiate contact early, establish trust from the start, and maintain enough proximity to address concerns before they grow. You'll acknowledge achievements, support parents during uncertain moments, and convert strong relationships into sustained retention and enthusiastic advocacy. This position suits someone who believes customer success should be human-centered, forward-thinking, and relationship-driven. If you've ever felt your work should prioritize people over process, this is your opportunity. What You Will Be Doing Addressing parent inquiries and concerns through email and chat with responsiveness, empathy, and precision Recognizing student achievements and growth through personalized, meaningful communication Building connections among GT families to foster community engagement and advocacy Collecting parent input and delivering actionable insights to leadership for program enhancement Developing, maintaining, and refining parent-facing support content and knowledge base materials What You Won’t Be Doing Operating from a reactive ticket queue, waiting for problems to arrive Following scripts or depending on inflexible response templates Delivering technical support or diagnosing platform issues Working independently—you'll partner closely with Academic Advisors and leadership Viewing families as transactions or metrics—each parent represents a genuine relationship Family Engagement Specialist Key Responsibilities Establish proactive, trust-driven relationships with parents that support family retention and advocacy, ensuring parents feel like genuine partners in their child's educational journey. Basic Requirements A minimum of 1 year of experience in customer success, account management, or community-oriented roles Hands-on experience working in education or directly with students and parents At least 1 year managing digital support platforms (email, chat, or helpdesk systems such as Intercom, Help Scout, or Zendesk) Proven ability to compose clear, warm, and professional written communications Confirmed ability to juggle multiple concurrent priorities using structured tracking systems History of cultivating relationships proactively, rather than solely responding to incoming requests Comfortable operating remotely and communicating asynchronously About GT School GT School is revolutionizing education with AI, expert coaching, and 50+ years of learning science. They blend cutting-edge tech with data-driven insights to unlock every student's full potential. They're on a mission to disrupt the broken education system and unleash the true potential of gifted minds. Forget the one-size-fits-all approach that leaves brilliant students bored and disengaged. This school has tossed the rulebook and created a modern learning environment powered by AI and guided by dedicated mentors. Their personalized approach accelerates learning - 2-6 times faster than traditional classrooms. GT School students explore their passions, develop critical thinking skills, and learn to innovate. Because that's where genius lies. GT School is where gifted minds turn potential into power. Working with us This is a full-time (40 hours per week), long-term position. The position is immediately available and requires entering into an independent contractor agreement with Crossover as a Contractor of Record. The compensation level for this role is $30 USD/hour, which equates to $60,000 USD/year assuming 40 hours per week and 50 weeks per year. The payment period is weekly.
