Head of Admissions, gt.school - $200,000/year USD

Most admissions positions focus on promoting what an institution provides. This position is built around safeguarding standards.

GT School serves families seeking more than what conventional classrooms deliver. Our students exhibit exceptional academic capability and operate at a pace that demands depth, challenge, and deliberate structure. We create an environment where this level of capability is both supported and expected.

Our approach is structured to meet students at their current level and advance them further. Learning is personalized, progress is rigorously monitored, and students are continually challenged to engage deeply and advance with confidence. Families seek us out for guidance on whether this intensity and pace align with their needs, and for a learning context that honors the actual capabilities of their child.

In this position, you serve as the initial contact for families evaluating whether GT School provides the right environment for their child. Every exchange you conduct and every conversation you facilitate will influence how families perceive the program and envision their child's trajectory.

We welcome candidates from premium service settings outside traditional schooling: selective private institutions, competitive programs, high-end hospitality, executive assistance, exclusive membership organizations, or business owners who have directly overseen high-value client experiences from start to finish. What counts is your capacity to orchestrate a high-touch, multi-phase process with sound judgment, clarity, and consistent execution.

What You Will Be Doing

• Take full ownership of the admissions process, spanning initial inquiry through final enrollment and onboarding
• Facilitate structured discovery discussions to evaluate family objectives, expectations, and compatibility before advising on next steps
• Oversee 15–25+ concurrent family relationships, each at distinct phases, maintaining clear prioritization and accountability
• Facilitate campus visits, shadow experiences, and decision meetings that articulate outcomes, expectations, and considerations with precision
• Maintain precise CRM and enrollment documentation to enable forecasting, prioritization, and service excellence

What You Won’t Be Doing

• Applying transactional or aggressive sales methods
• Admitting families who lack alignment purely to meet enrollment targets
• Overseeing a large staff or navigating complex approval hierarchies
• Distributing ownership of the family journey across multiple individuals
• Working from a remote location. This position requires campus presence by design
