Director of Partnerships and Community Outreach

$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)

• Steward the relationship with every enrolled family—the evolving, substantive relationship that makes parents feel understood, not merely accommodated
• Identify and address concerns proactively, resolving them with discretion and interpersonal skill that preserves confidence
• Maintain visible presence in the spaces families occupy: morning arrivals (7–9am), afternoon departures (2–4pm), evening parent gatherings, and select weekend programming
• Create a campus community with authentic depth—rituals, events, and moments that foster a sense of belonging families actively safeguard
• Develop parent champions naturally, delivering experiences of such consistent quality that referrals arise without solicitation
• Sustain the dialogue around Alpha's AI-driven model with families managing concerns about screen exposure, skeptical relatives, and periodic uncertainty—not only at the outset, but across their entire campus experience
• Recognize when a family is not well-suited and address it with the same professionalism you apply universally—protecting community integrity is an act of service
• Establish the infrastructure and routines this position demands in a setting where frameworks are still emerging

• Overseeing enrollment—that function belongs to the Admissions Director; your work commences when families commit and evolves thereafter
• Operating from a desk—your engagement with the community defines the role
• Adhering to standard 9–5 schedules—early mornings, extended afternoons, and evening commitments are inherent to the position, not occasional
• Relying on administrative infrastructure, established protocols, or a complete team—you function with significant autonomy and develop what is required
• Viewing family relationships as transactional accounts—this role values authentic connection over procedural adherence

Serve as the central trusted relationship in every family's Alpha experience. Maintain their confidence during challenging periods, foster a community where belonging is valued, and establish conditions under which satisfied families become enthusiastic advocates.

• Currently reside within commuting range of one of these campuses OR willing to relocate within 60 days (candidates with established local community ties preferred): Denver, CO; Greenwich, CT; Boca Raton, FL; Tampa, FL; Boston, MA; Bethesda, MD; Charlotte, NC; Las Vegas, NV; Oklahoma City, OK; Tulsa, OK; Nashville, TN; Austin, TX; Dallas (Carrollton), TX; Fort Worth, TX; Houston (The Woodlands), TX; Park City, UT; Burlington, VT; Kirkland, WA; or Jackson Hole, WY
• Legally authorized to work in the U.S. without sponsorship
• 5+ years in a client-facing role serving high-net-worth or ultra-high-net-worth families—private school admissions, luxury hospitality, philanthropic organizations, or any context where discretion, interpersonal warmth, and social ease were equally valued as competence
• Proven capacity to navigate difficult moments with sophisticated families and maintain trust throughout
• Authentic presence and communication that quickly establishes confidence with affluent, high-expectation families—polished but not rehearsed
• Personal connection to independent, private, or alternative education—through professional experience or as a parent—that provides credibility when families question the approach
• Sincere confidence in AI-powered education and the capacity to sustain that belief authentically throughout years of parent engagement, beyond the enrollment phase
• Availability for non-standard hours: early mornings (7–9am), late afternoons (2–4pm), evening events 2–3 times monthly, and occasional weekend activities

Exceptional candidates will possess at least one of the following:

• Established connections within the local affluent community that provide immediate, organic credibility on campus
• Private or independent school background with demonstrated success in family retention and community building—beyond enrollment metrics alone
• Experience managing high-stakes family dynamics where your discretion and judgment were the foundation of sustained trust
• Talent for designing experiences—gatherings, moments, settings—where participants feel connected to something they value protecting
• Prior startup or early-stage organizational experience where you built structures from scratch and remained effective amid rapid change
