Senior Admissions Advisor, Alpha - $200,000/year USD

Most enrollment positions focus on throughput. This one is designed to uphold standards. Alpha is constructing one of the most forward-thinking school frameworks in existence. Our locations integrate demanding academics, technology-enabled instruction, and elevated expectations for both students and faculty. Students routinely achieve learning gains that exceed national norms, supported by measurable data. Afternoons are dedicated to depth, autonomy, and the development of practical competencies. The model is effective. But its effectiveness depends entirely on enrolling the right families. This is your responsibility. You will manage the complete enrollment experience for a campus, beginning with initial inquiry and continuing through onboarding. This is not a role where you hand off tasks. You are accountable for how families perceive us, how thoroughly they grasp the model, and whether enrollment decisions are made with sound rationale. You will evaluate compatibility, facilitate meaningful dialogue, and advise against enrollment when that is the appropriate course. The objective is not enrollment maximization. The objective is precise alignment. We welcome candidates from distinguished service sectors outside conventional education: independent schools, competitive programs, premium hospitality, executive coordination, exclusive membership entities, or entrepreneurial operators who have directly overseen high-value client experiences from start to finish. What counts is your capability to execute a refined, multi-phase process with sound judgment, clarity, and consistent follow-through. If your career has centered on delivering exceptional service where trust, discretion, and experience quality shape the brand, this role will resonate with you—simply applied to work that generates measurable impact. This is a full-time, salaried, on-site position. We are recruiting in La Jolla, Los Angeles, Marin County, Palo Alto, Piedmont, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, Santa Monica, South Bay. Relocation assistance is provided. What You Will Be Doing Managing the complete enrollment lifecycle for prospective families, from initial outreach through final onboarding. Facilitating discovery conversations to evaluate compatibility before offering solutions or suggesting subsequent actions. Overseeing 20+ concurrent family engagements at varying phases of the enrollment cycle, maintaining transparent tracking of status and follow-up requirements. Directing campus visits, student shadow sessions, and enrollment dialogues that articulate outcomes, expectations, and the intended audience for the model. Ensuring precise CRM and enrollment documentation (HubSpot and SIS) to enable forecasting, task prioritization, and service excellence. What You Won’t Be Doing Employing transactional or aggressive sales methods. Accepting families who are poorly suited just to meet enrollment targets. Supervising a sizable team or operating within complex approval hierarchies. Distributing accountability for the family experience across multiple team members. Operating remotely. This position is intentionally campus-based. Senior Admissions Advisor Key Responsibilities Take full ownership of a high-trust, selective enrollment process that successfully converts aligned families while safeguarding the integrity and academic performance of the Alpha model.
