College Coach

POSITION SUMMARY

Is this the next step in your career Find out if you are the right candidate by reading through the complete overview below.

You will be the trusted guide for highly invested families as they navigate one of the most

critical periods of their child’s life, preparing for and applying to college.

As a College Coach at Kate Stone Prep, you’ll play a key role in driving student growth and

long-term success by helping students identify their talents and interests, explore and map

out what they want to pursue in life, and implement winning strategies to make them

unreasonably competitive in the college admissions landscape.

Your job in the college prep phase (7th - 11th grade) will include a wide variety of

responsibilities, from assessing course selection in school, independent studies outside of the

classroom, and improving students’ time management and study skills. You will also help

students identify, plan, and complete personal projects that set them apart in the application

process. Your college prep responsibilities will also include teaching students how to cold

outreach and nurture relationships to grow their personal network, find mentors, and build a

board of advisors. You’ll also guide students to set and meet personal goals, contribute to

their household, and yes, even keep up with chores. The application process begins in the

summer before 11th grade and encompasses all aspects of researching a list of schools,

writing all of the essays, and managing the work to complete early. Your work then carries on

to the summer before they leave for college, when you will assess their college readiness and

help them prepare for a successful launch in their freshman year. Throughout the process, you will work closely with parents and students to keep them up to

date, continually assess goals, and ensure our white glove level of support is met at all times.

You will also meet and work closely with our other coaches to brainstorm ideas, remove

obstacles, and ensure that all students are achieving their full potential. While we have a

solid curriculum to work from, regular training to deepen your knowledge and expand your

skills is expected. You will also be expected to participate in marketing and sales campaigns

to help serve our community and grow the business.

This role is perfect for someone who loves creative problem solving, motivating others, and

meeting goals. This job is part college coaching, part career coach, part life coach, and part

personal mentor. You will be a role model for “building a wildly successful life,” so expect you

to live what you teach. We have a saying around here that interesting people do interesting

things! Our goal is to help you achieve your personal, professional, and financial goals.

Experience with college admissions is not required! We offer ongoing training, mentorship,

and a significant opportunity for growth as we scale.

Join us in transforming the college admissions journey and solving the education crisis, one

family at a time.

ABOUT THE COMPANY

At Kate Stone Prep, we build wildly successful lives for our students through education,

mentorship, and life experiences. The core problem we solve for families is helping their

children gain admission to top-choice colleges and careers. Our approach is different. We

don’t check boxes; we break the outdated college coaching models. While most candidates

start to look the same on paper, our students complete inventive, one-of-a-kind projects that

stretch their potential, tell a compelling story, and position them as unmistakably

competitive.

Working with us means joining a team that is deeply devoted to the mission. We’re building

something exceptional — a new standard of educational mentorship that high-achieving

families instantly recognize as distinct.

This role isn’t just about getting into college; it’s about helping students build wildly

successful lives. And you are responsible for making this happen. We are looking for people

who are excited by the opportunity to drive students lives forward, and get paid well to do so.

Expect to show up for work well dressed, living your best life, and ready to provide a

concierge-level experience. If you are looking for “work-life balance” we are not the right fit for

you. If you are looking for career advancement, financial reward, and a company that will

support you pursuing your dreams, we’d love to meet you.
