Admissions Relationship Manager, Alpha - $200,000/year USD

Overview Most admissions positions are designed to maximize numbers. This position is designed to uphold quality. Alpha is developing one of the most forward-thinking educational frameworks in existence. Our locations integrate demanding coursework, technology-enabled instruction, and elevated expectations for both learners and educators. Students routinely advance faster than national averages, with measurable evidence to support it. Afternoon hours are dedicated to deeper exploration, independent work, and practical competency development. The approach is effective. However, it depends entirely on enrolling the right families. This is your responsibility. You will manage the complete admissions process for a campus, beginning with initial inquiry and concluding with onboarding. This is not a role that passes families between departments. You are accountable for how families perceive us, how thoroughly they grasp the model, and whether enrollment occurs for sound reasons. You will evaluate compatibility, facilitate informed discussions, and advise against enrollment when appropriate. The objective is not filling seats. The objective is achieving alignment. We welcome applicants from high-end service sectors outside conventional education: independent schools, competitive programs, premium hospitality, executive assistance, exclusive membership organizations, or entrepreneurs who have directly overseen complex client experiences from start to finish. What counts is your capacity to execute a detailed, multi-phase process with sound judgment, transparency, and accountability. If your professional background includes delivering exceptional service in settings where credibility, confidentiality, and experience define the brand, this position will resonate with you—simply directed toward work that produces tangible results. This is a full-time, salaried, on-site position. We are currently hiring 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 entire enrollment experience for prospective families, from initial outreach through final onboarding. Facilitating discovery conversations to evaluate alignment before offering solutions or suggesting further engagement. Overseeing 20+ concurrent family relationships across various phases of the admissions cycle, with transparent tracking and timely follow-up. Guiding campus visits, student shadow days, and decision-making discussions that articulate outcomes, standards, and ideal candidate profiles. Keeping CRM and enrollment systems (HubSpot and SIS) current and precise to enable forecasting, strategic prioritization, and service excellence. What You Won’t Be Doing Employing transactional or aggressive sales methods. Admitting families who are poorly suited just to meet enrollment targets. Overseeing a sizable team or working through complex approval hierarchies. Distributing ownership of the family journey across multiple departments. Performing this role remotely. This position requires campus presence.
