Job description

"Alpha is opening new campuses all over America. Why? Because their students love school, learn valuable life skills, and run laps around their peers academically."

Alpha is hiring.

A quiet afternoon is successful when every student is accounted for, every exam starts on time, and the campus is secured correctly without another adult stepping in.

This is a clearly bounded, on-site role supervising high school students during independent project work — closer to the recreation and facility supervision work you already know than to a classroom job. You will circulate, enforce safety and behavior standards, close the downtown Austin campus, and proctor exams. There is no lesson planning, tutoring, grading, or work to take home.

The Details

• Location: Downtown Austin (parking included)
• Hours: 19-20 hours/week
• Schedule Options: Monday-Friday 4-7 PM + Saturday 12-4 PM, or Monday-Thursday 4-8 PM + Saturday 12-4 PM
• Pay: $30 per hour

What You Will Be Doing

• Ensure student safety during afternoon project work sessions
• Monitor students as they work on ambitious masterpiece projects
• Close and secure the school facility each evening
• Serve as a proctor for student exams scheduled during afternoon hours

What You Won’t Be Doing

• Tutoring or providing academic assistance
• Planning activities or entertainment
• Direct project supervision or guidance
• Administrative work beyond basic safety monitoring

Recreation Supervisor Key Responsibilities

Ensure every after-school session and exam runs safely, every student remains accounted for, and the downtown Austin campus is secured correctly each evening.

Basic Requirements

• At least 18 years old, legally authorized to work in the United States without current or future visa sponsorship, and able to work on-site in downtown Austin.
• Available for one complete fixed schedule: Monday-Friday 4-7 PM plus Saturday 12-4 PM, or Monday-Thursday 4-8 PM plus Saturday 12-4 PM.
• Able to commit to the full schedule for at least one school semester.
• Experience supervising groups of children or teenagers in a structured setting, with clear examples of the ages and group sizes you supported.
• Experience independently opening, closing, or securing a facility or shift, plus a concrete example of personally handling a behavior or safety situation.

Nice-to-have Requirements

Experience as a test/exam proctor is a plus, but not required.
