Regional Director of Family Engagement

$200,000 USD/year ^{Pay is set based on global value, not the local market. Most roles = hourly rate x 40 hrs x 50 weeks}  ($100 USD/hour)

• Assume ownership of the relationship with each family on campus—the sustained, evolving relationship that ensures parents feel recognized, not merely attended to
• Identify concerns before they surface as formal conversations, and address them with the discretion and interpersonal skill that preserves trust
• Maintain visible availability where families gather: morning drop-off (7–9am), afternoon pickup (2–4pm), evening parent functions, and select weekend programming
• Shape a campus community with authentic depth—events, rituals, and moments of connection that foster a sense of belonging to something worth safeguarding
• Develop parent advocates naturally, by delivering experiences of such consistent quality that referrals emerge as a logical result
• Sustain the evolving conversation around Alpha's AI-driven model with families managing concerns about screen exposure, skeptical relatives, and periodic doubt—not only during enrollment, but across their entire campus tenure
• Recognize when a family is not aligned with the community and address that reality with the same care you apply to all interactions—protecting the collective is integral to serving it
• Establish the structures and routines this position demands in a setting where the operational framework is still taking form

• Overseeing enrollment—that responsibility belongs to the Admissions Director; your engagement starts once families enroll and grows from that point forward
• Operating from behind a desk—your visibility within the community defines the position
• Adhering to conventional 9–5 schedules—early mornings, late afternoons, and evening programming are integral to the role, not occasional additions
• Depending on administrative infrastructure, established workflows, or a complete team—you function with significant autonomy and create what's necessary
• Approaching family relationships as transactional accounts—this role rewards authentic engagement, not procedural adherence

Serve as the trusted relationship anchoring every family's experience at Alpha. Maintain their confidence through challenging moments, cultivate a community where belonging feels intentional, and establish the environment in which satisfied families naturally become active advocates.

• Currently living within commuting range of one of these campuses OR prepared to relocate within 60 days (priority given to candidates with established local community ties): Scottsdale, AZ; Denver, CO; Greenwich, CT; Boca Raton, FL; Boston, MA; Bethesda, MD; Oklahoma City, OK; Tulsa, OK; Nashville, TN; Austin, TX; Fort Worth, TX; Houston, TX; Park City, UT; Chantilly, VA; or Kirkland, WA
• Authorized to work legally in the U.S. without sponsorship requirements
• 5+ years in a client-facing role serving high-net-worth or ultra-high-net-worth families—contexts such as private school admissions, luxury hospitality, philanthropic advising, or any setting where discretion, warmth, and interpersonal sophistication were equally critical as technical competence
• Proven capacity to sustain relationships through challenging situations with sophisticated families and maintain trust throughout
• Authentic presence and communication approach that builds confidence rapidly with affluent, exacting families—refined without appearing rehearsed
• Direct familiarity with independent, private, or alternative education—through professional experience or as a parent—that provides genuine credibility when families challenge the model
• Sincere conviction in AI-powered education and the capacity to sustain that belief authentically across years of parent engagement, not limited to the initial enrollment phase
• Flexibility for variable scheduling: early mornings (7–9am), late afternoons (2–4pm), evening functions 2–3 times monthly, and periodic weekend activities

Exceptional candidates will demonstrate at least one of the following:

• Established connections within the local affluent community that would provide an immediate, organic presence on campus
• Private or independent school background with a proven record of family retention and community cohesion—beyond simple enrollment figures
• Experience managing sensitive family dynamics where your judgment and discretion were the foundation of sustained trust
• A natural ability to design experiences—gatherings, moments, settings—that make people feel they are part of something worth preserving
• Prior startup or early-stage organizational experience where you built from the ground up and maintained composure through rapid change
