Associate Dean of Parents

About the role

The families choosing Alpha have trusted advisors in every corner of their lives. This is the one they've been missing. As Associate Dean of Parents, you will be the person families call when they're uncertain, when something feels off, or when they want to share a moment they know you'll understand.

Responsibilities

• Own the relationship with every family on campus — the ongoing, deepening relationship that makes parents feel known, not just served
• Anticipate concerns before they become conversations, and resolve them with the discretion and social fluency that leaves trust intact
• Be visibly present where families are: morning drop-off (7–9am), afternoon pick-up (2–4pm), evening parent events, and occasional weekend activities
• Build a campus community with genuine texture — events, traditions, and touchpoints that make families feel they belong to something worth protecting
• Cultivate parent advocates organically, creating experiences so consistently excellent that referrals become the natural outcome
• Hold the ongoing conversation about Alpha's AI-powered model with families navigating screen time concerns, skeptical extended family, and moments of doubt — not just at enrollment, but throughout their time on campus
• Know when a family isn't the right fit and handle that with the same grace you bring to everything else — protecting the community is part of serving it
• Build the systems and rhythms this role requires in an environment where the playbook is still being written

Requirements

• Currently reside within commuting distance of one of the listed campuses OR willing to relocate within 60 days (preference for candidates with existing community roots)
• Legally authorized to work in the U.S. without sponsorship
• 5+ years in a relationship role serving high-net-worth or ultra-high-net-worth families — private school admissions, luxury hospitality, philanthropy, or any environment where discretion, warmth, and social fluency were as important as capability
• Demonstrated ability to hold relationships through difficult moments with sophisticated families and emerge with trust intact
• Natural presence and communication style that earns confidence quickly with affluent, high-expectation families
• Genuine belief in AI-powered education and the ability to carry that conviction authentically
• Availability for flexible hours: early mornings (7–9am), late afternoons (2–4pm), evening events 2–3x/month, and occasional weekend activities
