Principal Learning Consultant   $200,000 USD/year

Description

  • On-site positions available in Bethesda, MD; Boston, MA; Chicago, IL; Fort Lauderdale, FL; Seattle, WA; or CA: East Bay (San Francisco), Palo Alto, Santa Monica, or Los Angeles
  • Weekly salary of $200,000. Health benefits begin day one, plus HSA/FSA and 401(k) Roth options

Alpha is transforming the classroom experience. Our students don't passively absorb information—they race through adaptive applications, achieve mastery in half the time, and develop practical life competencies in the process. Your role is to ensure those "3 Promises" resonate with every learner in your cohort and to develop our Guides so they can deliver the same impact.

You'll combine world-class coaching expertise with compelling presentation skills, transforming workshops, performance-driven team sessions, and focused feedback into powerful development experiences. If you've broken performance barriers, elevated struggling teams to excellence, or refuse to settle for mediocrity, we want you creating exceptional outcomes with us.

What makes Alpha stand out?

  • Competitive compensation for high-cost markets – elevated pay reflecting the living expenses in these metropolitan regions
  • Strong benefits package & time off – full health coverage and ample PTO
  • Relocation support – offered to exceptional candidates
  • Development-focused environment – access to coaching, training, and transparent advancement opportunities

What you will be doing

  • Developing and training Guides to deliver Alpha's workshops with exceptional quality
  • Building Guide Playbooks that outline facilitation best practices, design of engaging learning experiences, and challenge resolution
  • Delivering consistent, practical feedback to Guides that drives student participation and success
  • Coaching a small student cohort directly, demonstrating advanced motivation and mentoring techniques

What you will NOT be doing

  • Creating lesson plans – your Guides support student learning via adaptive apps; you concentrate on training them as outstanding motivators
  • Compromising expectations – when the passing standard is 100%, you're responsible for upholding that benchmark
  • Running dull training sessions – you'll develop Guides through dynamic, energetic, experiential learning

Key responsibilities

Develop Guides and students to ensure every learner in your cohort enjoys school, achieves learning at 2× pace, and gains mastery of life skills. No exceptions.

Candidate requirements

  • Currently located in or prepared to relocate for on-site work at an Alpha Campus (Bethesda, MD; Boston, MA; Chicago, IL; Fort Lauderdale, FL; Seattle, WA; or CA: East Bay (San Francisco), Palo Alto, Santa Monica, or Los Angeles)
  • Hold a Bachelor's degree in any discipline.
  • Minimum 5 years of professional experience in education, learning and development, coaching, or related areas.
  • Proven track record developing and executing innovative educational programs, curricula, or training solutions.
  • Excellent leadership and mentorship capabilities with experience building, managing, and inspiring high-performing teams.
  • Background working with young people (ages 5-18) in educational or developmental settings.
  • Strong data analysis skills and ability to leverage metrics for decision-making and ongoing improvement.
