Job description

Crimson Education is a global EdTech company founded in 2013 with the idea that through personalised education and technology, we can transform students into the world leaders of tomorrow. We’re the world’s leading college admissions consultancy, with over 1,330 Ivy League offers and 2,140 to the US Top 15. With a passionate team of 800+ that's rapidly expanding across 30 markets, our unique tech platform connects expert-led guidance and proven data-driven strategies from 3,000 tutors and mentors with students worldwide. We help ambitious students unlock their dream career pathways, and Crimson students are 7x more likely to get into the Ivy League. What sets us apart is our unmatched scale and expertise. We have the largest team of Former Admissions Officers and College Counselors globally. Every student is matched with a carefully-chosen team of admissions experts who laser focus on different parts of their college application — from essays to extracurriculars — ensuring every detail is expertly executed. Valued at over $1B NZD and backed by over $147M NZD in funding from top-tier global investors, including Tiger Global and Ice House Ventures, we are just getting started. We were recently featured on the front page of the Wall Street Journal. Read the article here .

Strategy Consultants (Admissions Counsellors) are exemplars of Crimson Education’s philosophy dedicated to making a difference in students’ lives, helping bridge gaps between present and future goals by personalising blueprints that will become the basis of all academic, extracurricular and personal development.

You will partner closely with the student and lead the Crimson team (tutors, mentors, consultants) to drive progress through long-term roadmaps and mentoring to build their candidacy through the application processes.

This is a full-time position, that can be based remotely or in one of our many offices around the globe. We are open to Part-Time candidates (25-30+ hours) who have high-demand backgrounds.

What success looks like :

  • Provide overarching admissions strategies to students by creating individualized plans and executing on them in collaboration with the rest of the students’ Crimson team (Educational Coordinators, Academic Tutors, Application Consultants, ECL Mentors)
  • Maintain expert knowledge of high school curricula, extracurricular and leadership choices, summer program applications, and standardized test planning to make recommendations regarding admissions strategies
  • Utilize in-depth knowledge of institutions of higher learning to guide students and parents towards attainable school goals, working with them to create lists of best-fit schools of varied competition to maximize acceptance chances
  • Conduct formal consulting sessions with students on a bi-monthly basis, chronicling and sharing with relevant stakeholders notes and action items
  • Maintain reasonable levels of communication with students and families outside of formal sessions through various channels (e.g. email, etc.)
  • Facilitate or lead development and presentation of marketing materials for seminars or expositions in local markets
  • Collaborate with local Sales teams in Initial Consultations to facilitate potential client investment and understanding in Crimson’s products and services
  • Assist with Product and Resource Development initiatives to better our service

What skills and experience you’ll need :

  • Bachelor’s degree from a top 20 US university or Oxbridge (special considerations may be given to those with undergraduate admissions consulting backgrounds)
  • Strong preference for experience with US / UK admissions consulting for the undergraduate level at top universities
  • Passion for coaching young adults and appreciation of global perspectives
  • Superior planning and organisational skills; experience in project management, event coordination, and product management a plus
  • Strong written and oral communication skills
  • Stakeholder management (collaborating with a range of internal stakeholders, students and parents)
  • Resilience when working independently under pressure, flexible and adaptive to working in a fast-paced growing organisation
  • Experience in education, coaching, tutoring, and admissions consulting preferred
  • Why work for Crimson?

  • Be a part of the world's leading admissions consulting firm
  • Rapidly growing start up, with a flexible working environment where you will be empowered to structure how you work
  • Limitless development and exposure - our internal promotions / role changes made up 33% of all recruitment last year
  • $1000 NZD ($600 USD) individual training budget per year, we love to ‘Level Up’ (it’s one of our core values)!
  • Psychologist on staff
  • Insightful fireside chats and workshops to help support our high-performing and ambitious team
  • Radical Candor is a feedback approach we live by
  • We’re a global player with 28 markets (and growing) across the globe. Most roles have the option to work from one of our many offices or remotely!
  • If you're passionate about growing in a fast-paced, collaborative environment, and want to work with cutting-edge technology then we'd love to hear from you!
