Learning and Development Manager   $150,000 USD/year

Description

  • On-site position in Atlanta, GA or Keller (Fort Worth), TX
  • $150,000 annual compensation, paid weekly. Health benefits start day one
  • Relocation? We provide support

The most meaningful support you can offer a student who reaches 99% is to expect 100%.

That principle isn't up for discussion at Alpha—it defines daily operations. Academic learning happens through self-guided applications, not traditional lecture. This structure allows you to focus on what truly transforms outcomes: facilitating dynamic workshops on public speaking, focus, and feedback. Using live analytics, you motivate students toward complete goal attainment. You coach the Guides working beside you. Your resources include data, a field-tested playbook, and the executive presence that commands attention from middle schoolers.

You will take ownership of a student cohort and deliver three measurable outcomes: students love attending school, they progress at double the rate of conventional classrooms, and they develop practical life competencies. Coaching other Guides begins immediately. As you demonstrate scalable results, your authority over campus-wide program standards expands.

Atlanta: Culturally vibrant metro area with temperate weather and living costs below coastal markets.
Fort Worth: Zero state income tax, highly rated schools, and a family-oriented city with thriving arts and culinary culture.

Uphold the standard. Transform the student. Apply today.

What you will be doing

  • Facilitating hour-long live workshops on life competencies (public speaking, focus, giving and receiving feedback) for students in grades K-8, adhering to Alpha's playbook
  • Conducting motivation sessions leveraging Coachbot analytics and Alpha's incentive framework (school currency, leaderboards) to achieve 100% student goal attainment
  • Coaching Guides on program adherence and standards enforcement, ensuring each session yields concrete improvement actions
  • Managing your own student cohort while simultaneously developing other Guides
  • Monitoring student satisfaction metrics, goal completion percentages, and Guide performance indicators

What you will NOT be doing

  • Delivering academic lectures or tutoring on subject matter. App-based learning handles academics.
  • Creating curriculum or lesson plans. Alpha's playbook serves as your operating framework, allowing you to concentrate on execution and student connection.
  • Accepting 99% when 100% is the standard. Maintaining that boundary demonstrates your belief in their capacity to reach it.
  • Coaching Guides on instructional methodology. Since Guides don't teach content, your coaching centers on energy, motivation, and accountability.

Key responsibilities

Execute Alpha's 3 Promises for every student at your level: they love school, they learn at twice the speed of traditional classrooms, and they develop real life skills.
