Status: Hourly Contractor (non-benefited)

Role Overview

Vertex Partnership Academies is seeking an organized, proactive Enrollment Support Contractor to provide hands-on operational and family-facing support to the enrollment function. This role is designed to increase capacity during critical recruitment, application, and onboarding windows and will work closely with the Manager of Enrollment, Engagement & External Affairs to ensure enrollment pipelines move quickly, accurately, and professionally.

This is not a strategy role. This is an execution role. If you like closing loops, following up relentlessly, and keeping systems clean, this job is for you.

Data & Systems Management

• Maintain accurate, up-to-date enrollment trackers and CRM records
• Run basic reports as requested (application counts, follow-up lists, conversion tracking)
• Ensure clean handoffs between recruitment, enrollment, and operations teams

General Enrollment Operations

• Support coordination with internal teams (operations, counseling, leadership) as needed

• Other enrollment-related duties as assigned

Preferred

• Experience in school enrollment, admissions, or family engagement
• Familiarity with NYC charter enrollment processes
• Comfort working in spreadsheets, CRMs, or student information systems

What Success Looks Like

• Families receive timely and clear follow-up to finalize enrollment
• Application pipelines move faster with fewer dropped balls
• Enrollment data is accurate, current, and usable
• The Manager of Enrollment, Engagement & External Affairs gains real capacity, not more work

Compensation

• Hours will fluctuate based on enrollment cycles and the needs of the academy
