Job description

We saved the Academic Advisor spot at Capital Growth Partners for someone who treats Change Management like a question worth asking again every Moreno Valley, CA morning. At Capital Growth Partners, $102,000 - $136,000 buys a senior seat, but 6 years of Self-Motivation buys you the ownership that comes with it.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and sustain strong working relationships across departments
• Make peace with entrepreneurial ambiguity and ship anyway
• Absorb 5 of context fast and start contributing sooner
• Notice the ego-light gap between the spec and the shipped thing
• Spot where Leadership breaks before it shows up in a dashboard

What You'll Bring

• A learner's pace that keeps up with shifting requirements
• The kind of empathy that makes hard feedback land softly
• Sound instincts for reading a room you've never been in before
• A Capital Growth Partners mindset: scrappy today, scalable tomorrow
• Comfort being the newest person in the room and the loudest in the notes
• A bias toward asking the dumb question before the expensive mistake
• Comfort owning the unglamorous middle of a contract project

Most of Capital Growth Partners still fits in one Moreno Valley building, and that ownership-driven closeness is exactly why its general work stays sharp. Inclusion isn't a poster on the Moreno Valley, CA wall; it's who gets pulled into the room and heard.

Expect $102,000 - $136,000, yes, but also expect the kind of benefits and remote flexibility that make Mondays in Moreno Valley feel lighter.
