Through personalized strategies, expert mentorship, and hands‑on guidance, we empower the next generation of leaders, setting them up for success in an increasingly competitive admissions landscape.

We are a fast-growing, mission-driven startup scaling quickly. This is more than a job, it's an opportunity to shape processes, directly impact student outcomes, and grow into a leadership position as we expand.

About the Role

We're looking for a Student Success Manager who understands the stakes of the college journey and knows how to guide families through it with clarity, empathy, and confidence.

You’ll be the key point of contact for families, ensuring every student is supported, on track, and inspired. Your day is anchored by direct, face‑to‑face strategy presentations with families multiple times a day, in addition to onboarding, progress updates, and ongoing relationship management, problem‑solving, and growth driving.

• Build strong, lasting relationships that reflect our hands‑on, mission‑first approach.
• Proactively resolve issues and navigate family dynamics with empathy and clarity.

Account Management Operations

• Manage issue resolution in collaboration with counselors, mentors, and internal teams, ensuring prompt follow‑up and communication.
• Maintain accurate records of family interactions, progress updates, and success plans.

Value Delivery & Growth

• Understand each family's goals and priorities, tailoring support to maximize student success.
• Identify opportunities for upselling additional services (e.g., test prep, extra college applications, research tracks, or passion project mentoring) to add value to the student's journey.
• Collaborate with Sales and Marketing to highlight student success stories, case studies, referrals, and testimonials.

Qualifications

Must‑Have:

• 1+ years of experience in Customer Success, Account Management, or Client Services or direct experience as a college counselor/consultant.
• Strong understanding of holistic college admissions, profile development, and competitive positioning.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, warm, clear, and confident in navigating family relationships.
• Comfortable and energized delivering multiple live presentations per day, families, groups, and decision‑makers alike.
• Proven ability to manage multiple students/families at once, staying organized under pressure.

• Experience in both account management and college counseling (ideal).
• Background in education, admissions consulting, or working with high‑achieving students.
