Head of Programme Management

$120,000 annual salary , paid weekly, includes health, dental, and vision coverage starting day one. Full‑time on‑site position at one of the following Alpha campus locations: Beverly Hills, La Jolla (San Diego), Lake Forest (Orange County), Piedmont, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, or Santa Monica, CA; Greenwich, CT; Boca Raton, FL; Chicago, IL; Boston, MA; or New York City, NY (relocation assistance available). 40 hours per week, 100% classroom‑based with K‑3 students.

What You Will Be Doing

Creating small‑group K‑3 reading workshops using live adaptive‑app data, anchored in structured‑literacy approaches (Orton‑Gillingham, Wilson, LETRS, IMSE, or equivalent).

Leading daily motivation sessions that drive 100% of students to achieve their weekly app targets through Alpha's motivational model (school currency, leaderboards, age‑appropriate gamification).

Analyzing AI‑generated performance data (fluency curves, decoding accuracy, comprehension signal) to modify instruction in real time, not only during planning periods.

Conducting running records, fluency probes, and decoding assessments to generate gains visible during weekly campus data reviews.

Serving as the energetic, relatable adult your K‑3 students are excited to see daily.

What You Won't Be Doing

Implementing a published reading curriculum, scripted program, or district pacing guide; you create lessons directly from student data.

Delivering lectures to whole classrooms; all instruction occurs in small, targeted groups while students complete academic subjects through adaptive apps.

Serving as a reading consultant, teacher coach, or district‑level specialist; you work in the classroom with children every day.

Managing a traditional classroom schedule: subject‑by‑subject lectures, homework review, test preparation. Your scheduled time consists of workshops, motivation sessions, and data‑driven small groups.

Preparing IEPs, 504 plans, or formal diagnostic reports; student progress is captured in app data and your running records, not special‑education documentation.

Bachelor's degree in any field, plus 2+ years of full‑time K‑3 structured reading instruction in a school or clinical setting within the past 5 years, utilizing systematic phonics or structured literacy.

Readiness to work with all K‑3 students (not exclusively struggling readers) and incorporate AI and adaptive‑learning tools into daily instruction as those tools develop.

Legal authorization to work in the U.S. without requiring visa sponsorship.

Nice‑to‑Have Requirements

Direct experience with AI‑powered or adaptive reading platforms (e.g., Amira, Lexia, i‑Ready, Reading Plus) for instructional planning or student data interpretation.

Documented track record of measurable reading outcomes (fluency gains in WCPM, accuracy improvement, decoding level advancement) with specific numbers.

Familiarity with diagnostic reading assessments (DRA, DIBELS, AIMSweb) for forming differentiated instructional groups.

Experience in high‑accountability educational settings (independent schools, elite charter networks, premium tutoring environments where families closely monitor outcomes).

Background in performance, youth sports coaching, or other contexts requiring you to engage a K‑3 audience beyond the reading classroom.
