Alpha is committed to reimagining education, and we are seeking a visionary leader to deliver exceptional opportunities for our students. If you excel at developing high-performing teams and share a profound commitment to innovative youth development, this role offers an opportunity to drive transformative change.
This position provides both autonomy and institutional support to elevate our advanced learning methodology. Grounded in learning science and enhanced by adaptive technology, we are reshaping educational possibilities. Your expertise will be essential in realizing this vision.
You will serve as the catalyst, coach, and strategic architect for our Guides – the frontline learning facilitators who inspire rather than simply instruct. Your leadership will define how Alpha Guides engage with students, from creating operational playbooks and feedback systems to demonstrating exemplary facilitation techniques.
Consider the opportunity to merge elite coaching capabilities with direct involvement in youth development. Consider leading a team dedicated to ensuring our students not only succeed but excel – discovering latent abilities and essential life competencies. If you have exceeded benchmarks, revitalized underperforming initiatives, or accomplished what others deemed unattainable, you will align well with our culture.
Why join Alpha?
- Competitive compensation - we ensure that working in education does not require financial sacrifice
- Comprehensive benefits and leave - we prioritize our team through robust benefits packages and paid time off
- Culture of development and growth - we embody the continuous learning we expect from our students, providing coaching, training, and leadership pathways
- Relocation support available for exceptional candidates
If you understand what building an outstanding team requires, join Alpha to transform education!
What you will be doing
- Developing and training a team of Guides to execute the Alpha learning system with exceptional proficiency
- Designing Guide Playbooks that document best practices for facilitation, creating engaging learning experiences, and addressing obstacles
- Delivering consistent, practical feedback to Guides to enhance student participation and success
- Personally coaching a small student cohort, demonstrating advanced mentoring and motivational techniques
What you will NOT be doing
- Creating lesson plans – your Guides support student learning through adaptive applications; your priority is training them to become outstanding facilitators
- Compromising standards – if our success threshold is 100%, maintaining that expectation is your responsibility
- Conducting dull training sessions – you will develop Guides through dynamic, energizing, experiential learning
Key responsibilities
Develop and train a team of Guides to execute the Alpha system with exceptional proficiency.
