Leadership Coach, Alpha - $150,000/year USD

What You Will Be Doing

• Facilitating structured one-hour life skills workshops (public speaking, focus, feedback culture) for K-8 cohorts, executing Alpha's established playbook rather than creating content independently
• Conducting motivation sessions leveraging student data and Alpha's reward architecture (school currency, performance leaderboards) to achieve 100% goal completion across your cohort
• Developing Guides through coaching focused on program adherence and standards enforcement, ensuring each session yields specific performance improvement actions
• Sustaining direct responsibility for your own student cohort while simultaneously developing other Guides
• Monitoring student satisfaction metrics, goal completion percentages, and Guide performance indicators weekly to identify declining performance before it escalates
