Admissions and Enrollment Manager, Alpha - $90,000/year USD
About the role
LOCATION NOTE: This is an on-site position based at our Chantilly, VA campus. At Alpha, you won't simply discuss transforming lives through education—you'll execute it. This position serves as the frontline of expansion and stewardship: the individual who persuades families to enroll at our school and guarantees that once enrolled, their children experience learning in a secure, well-managed setting. This role differs from typical school positions by combining admissions leadership with direct campus operations oversight. You'll serve as the trusted voice families hear throughout their decision journey, and the reliable presence maintaining daily safety and facility standards so educators can concentrate on producing outstanding learning results. Alpha is a rapidly expanding school where drive meets discipline. Families enroll because they trust our three core commitments—and they remain because every aspect of their experience, from the initial admissions tour to the morning arrival routine, builds confidence. If the prospect of fueling both expansion and operational quality in a high-impact, purpose-driven setting energizes you, this is your opportunity.
Responsibilities
- Leading customized campus tours that convert families by demonstrating Alpha's distinctive commitments.
- Shepherding prospective families through the enrollment pipeline with attentive, considerate, and consistent outreach.
- Guaranteeing daily adherence to all child protection protocols and proactively identifying potential vulnerabilities.
- Overseeing facilities through a preventive lens, liaising with vendors, and securing cost-efficient, timely maintenance.
- Monitoring metrics across enrollment and operations to optimize strategies and produce quantifiable outcomes.
- What You Won’t Be Doing: Teaching or designing curriculum—your emphasis is on operational quality, not instruction.
- Following rigid procedures or waiting for others to initiate—this position demands proactive ownership.
- Conducting generic, scripted tours or sending template-based emails.
- Working in isolation—partnership with staff, parents, and vendors is fundamental.
