Executive Coach, Alpha - $150,000/year USD

On-site at an Alpha campus in Austin, TX or Scottsdale (Phoenix), AZ — relocation assistance available $150,000/year Full-time Most elementary schools ease expectations when students fall behind. You do the opposite. You believe six‑year-olds are capable of significantly more than conventional classrooms demand, and you have used evidence to demonstrate this repeatedly. Alpha operates on a two‑hour learning framework. Adaptive applications handle academic instruction each morning, freeing your schedule for the work that genuinely transforms a child's trajectory: motivation, life skills, coaching, and accountability. You directly oversee a cohort of K‑3 students while also coaching the Guides (Alpha's name for the adults who coach and inspire children) who manage their day‑to‑day progress. You remain hands‑on daily, not supervising from a separate office. A typical day rotates among three activities. You analyze performance metrics and Coachbot analytics to identify which students and Guides need attention. You conduct coaching sessions that conclude with a concrete next action rather than general encouragement. And you command the focus of a room filled with five‑to‑nine‑year‑olds during a workshop on public speaking, concentration, or feedback exchange. As you identify effective strategies, you document them. The playbooks you create set the benchmark every other Guide adopts, expanding your influence from a single cohort to the entire grade level. Demonstrating you can replicate that excellence is your path to larger leadership roles here. If lowering standards seems compassionate to you, this role is not suitable. If raising them feels like showing respect, submit your application. What You Will Be Doing Coaching Guides and students through performance metrics, classroom observation, and direct feedback, then maintaining accountability to quantifiable objectives Leading one‑hour live workshops for K‑3 students on life skills including public speaking, concentration, collaboration, resilience, accountability, and feedback exchange Conducting individual and small‑group motivation sessions that link each child's aspirations and interests to tangible academic advancement Creating and refining playbooks that convert your successful methods into repeatable frameworks other Guides can implement reliably Training Guides on these playbooks and demonstrating excellence in facilitation so quality standards remain consistent as the team expands What You Won’t Be Doing Providing academic instruction or lecturing at the front of the classroom; adaptive applications handle content delivery while you coach individuals Reducing expectations when students encounter difficulty Managing remotely the way instructional coaches and principals typically do; you remain embedded with your cohort every day Managing the entire campus's budget, operations, and family relationships; a Campus Lead handles those responsibilities so you can concentrate on student and Guide results Advocating for traditional teaching approaches or adhering to a standard K‑12 curriculum Executive Coach Key Responsibilities Fulfill Alpha's three commitments to every K‑3 student: they love school, learn twice as fast, and develop exceptional life skills and independence.
