Operations Coordinator, Alpha - $90,000/year USD at Crossover

Date: 2 hours ago
City: Santa Barbara, CA
Salary: $90,000 per year
Contract type: Full time

LOCATION NOTE: This is an in-person role located at one of our campuses.

You ensure everything functions seamlessly. A well-run campus creates safety for students, focus for staff, and confidence among parents. This outcome requires someone to coordinate countless details daily—with precision, responsiveness, and intention.

Alpha is constructing one of the world's most ambitious educational models. We integrate demanding academics, technology-driven instruction, and elevated standards for both students and adults. This position ensures that the operational dimension of campus life meets the same standard we hold in our classrooms.

In this position, you manage the operational rhythm of the campus. Your scope includes community communication, campus safety, facilities and logistics coordination, and day-to-day technology administration. You might coordinate a safety drill in one hour, troubleshoot a device issue in the next, onboard a new team member, or respond to a parent inquiry. Your work extends beyond maintenance—you build trust and reliability.

This is a practical, on-site position for someone energized by dynamic settings, composed under pressure, and committed to maintaining a high standard of service. If you seek work where your actions directly influence student safety, staff performance, and family confidence, this role provides genuine ownership and measurable impact.

What You Will Be Doing

  • Acting as a central point of contact for parents, students, and staff, delivering clear, prompt, and professional communication
  • Overseeing campus safety functions, including access management, health response, emergency drills, record-keeping, and parent notification
  • Coordinating daily campus operations including attendance tracking, facilities oversight, transportation logistics, and office management
  • Facilitating onboarding and orientation for new staff to ensure seamless integration into campus routines
  • Administering student devices and campus technology, serving as the on-site technology point person and Google Administrator

What You Won’t Be Doing

  • Delivering classroom instruction or overseeing academic programming
  • Mentoring Guides or contributing to curriculum design
  • Operating in a limited, single-task administrative capacity
  • Performing routine, desk-bound tasks with minimal variety
  • Escalating issues without taking ownership or driving resolution

Operations Coordinator Key Responsibilities

  • Bachelor's Degree in any field
  • At least 1 year of experience in office coordination, facilities support, site operations, or a similar operational role
  • Comfort with basic technology troubleshooting, device management, and account administration
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to engage parents, staff, students, and vendors professionally
  • Demonstrated comfort building warm, trusted relationships with children and families in a visible on-campus role
  • Ability to independently own campus operations and make sound decisions across safety, facilities, logistics, communication, and basic technology in a lean environment
  • Strong service orientation, emotional intelligence, and calm judgment under pressure
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities while maintaining attention to detail
  • Available to work in-person in one of our campuses: Greenwich, CT; Santa Barbara, CA; Malibu, CA; Boston, MA; Kirkland, WA; South Bay, CA; Santa Monica, CA — or willing to relocate
