Program Director   $150,000 USD/year

Description

IMPORTANT: This full-time, on-site role is based at our campuses in Austin, TX, and Plano, TX.

Join Alpha in revolutionizing education! We seek a visionary Program Director to lead innovative youth development and shape the future of learning. If you're skilled at building dynamic teams and driven by a passion for education, this is your opportunity to create a lasting impact.

In this capacity, you'll have the freedom to elevate our pioneering educational model, rooted in learning science and enhanced by adaptive technology. Your role is crucial in bringing this vision to reality.

As the catalyst, coach, and strategist, you'll empower our Guides—frontline educators who inspire rather than just instruct. Your leadership will refine how Alpha Guides engage with students, from crafting playbooks to demonstrating top-notch facilitation techniques.

Imagine merging your coaching prowess with a hands-on commitment to youth development. Lead a team that not only ensures student success but also helps them discover hidden talents and essential life skills. If you've achieved the extraordinary, you're ready for Alpha.

Why choose Alpha?

  • Competitive compensation – we believe in rewarding talent, not asking for a pay cut.
  • Comprehensive benefits and generous time off – we value our team with a robust benefits package and ample paid leave.
  • A culture of growth and learning – we embody the growth mindset we instill in our students, offering coaching, training, and leadership opportunities.
  • Relocation support for exceptional candidates.

If you're ready to build an outstanding team, join Alpha and help us transform education!

What you will be doing

  • Guide and develop a team of educators in implementing the Alpha learning system with unrivaled excellence.
  • Craft comprehensive Guide Playbooks that outline best practices for facilitation, creating engaging learning activities, and overcoming obstacles.
  • Offer consistent, actionable feedback to Guides to enhance student participation and success.
  • Personally mentor a select group of students, demonstrating expert coaching and motivational techniques.

What you will NOT be doing

  • Drafting lesson plans – your focus is on training Guides to lead learning through adaptive technology.
  • Compromising standards – maintaining a 100% passing grade is essential.
  • Delivering mundane training – you'll engage Guides with lively, hands-on development sessions.

Key responsibilities

Mentor and develop a team of Guides to deliver the Alpha system with exceptional quality.

Candidate requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in any discipline.
  • Minimum of 5 years' experience in education, coaching, or a related field.
  • Proven track record in creating and implementing groundbreaking educational programs or training initiatives.
  • Strong leadership and mentorship abilities, capable of building and motivating high-performing teams.
  • Experience working with young people (ages 5-18) in educational or developmental roles.
  • Skilled in data analysis and using metrics for decision-making and ongoing improvement.
  • Commitment to working on-site in Austin, TX, or Plano, TX.
