Director of Parent Advocacy   $200,000 USD/year

Description

POSITION NOTE: This is an on-site position at one of our vibrant campuses, requiring local presence and community engagement.

Are you passionate about revolutionizing education and empowering families to embrace a transformative learning approach? This role places you at the epicenter of educational innovation.

Alpha redefines the traditional classroom. Our students master core academics in just two hours daily through cutting-edge AI applications, dedicating the remainder of their day to acquiring life-changing skills—eloquent communication, analytical thinking, collaborative problem-solving, and meaningful project work. We've eliminated tedious lectures and pointless homework, focusing instead on accelerated achievement that consistently ranks in the top 1% nationwide. This pioneering approach requires exceptional parent engagement—and that's precisely where your expertise becomes invaluable.

As the campus ambassador, you'll spearhead enrollment growth, cultivate community trust, and inspire passionate advocacy. You'll conduct compelling information sessions, establish meaningful community connections, and convert interest into enrollment momentum. Your influence extends throughout the entire family journey—resolving concerns, building unwavering loyalty, and transforming parents into vocal champions of our educational philosophy.

This position offers substantial autonomy with clear accountability. Based primarily at your assigned campus, you'll drive tangible outcomes rather than simply executing predetermined protocols. If you're convinced that conventional education is failing our children and are ready to demonstrate a superior alternative, this opportunity awaits.
