What are the responsibilities and job description for the Client Services Director, Alpha - $200,000/year USD position at Crossover?
Most enrollment positions focus on volume. This one is designed to uphold standards.
Alpha is constructing a school model among the most ambitious globally. Our campuses integrate demanding academics, technology-enhanced instruction, and elevated expectations for both students and faculty. Students routinely outpace national learning benchmarks, supported by measurable outcomes. Afternoons are reserved for deeper exploration, self-directed work, and practical skill development. The model is proven. Its success, however, depends entirely on selecting the right families.
This is your focus.
You will manage the complete enrollment experience for a campus—from initial inquiry to final onboarding. This is not a pass-along function. You determine how families perceive us, how thoroughly they grasp the model, and whether their decision to enroll reflects genuine alignment. You will evaluate compatibility, facilitate meaningful dialogue, and advise against enrollment when appropriate. Maximum volume is not the objective. Alignment is.
We welcome applicants from high-caliber service backgrounds outside conventional education: independent schools, competitive programs, luxury hospitality, executive concierge services, exclusive membership organizations, or founder-led businesses where you personally stewarded high-value client relationships from start to finish. What counts is your capacity to execute a refined, multi-phase process with discernment, precision, and accountability.
If your career has centered on delivering exceptional service where trust, confidentiality, and client experience define the brand, this role will be recognizable—simply directed toward work that delivers measurable impact.
This is a full-time, salaried, on-campus position. We are hiring across La Jolla, Los Angeles, Marin County, Palo Alto, Piedmont, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, Santa Monica, and South Bay. Relocation assistance is provided.
What You Will Be Doing
Lead and deliver a high-integrity, selective enrollment process that attracts well-matched families while safeguarding the quality and outcomes of the Alpha model.
Basic Requirements
Want to join a learning rebellion that’s transforming the traditional classroom?
Alpha School is on a mission to reshape education with a bold approach that harnesses AI to accelerate learning and unleash student potential.
They don’t play by the old rules.
