Job Description

We are looking for a high-energy, persuasive, and relationship-driven

Community Outreach & Admissions Coordinator

to help grow our daycare family.

In this role, you won't just be sitting behind a desk; you will be the "face" of our center in the local community. Your primary goal is to build strategic partnerships with local businesses and organizations to create a steady stream of referrals, and then personally guide those families through the enrollment process until they sign on the dotted line.

Key Responsibilities

1. Business Partnership & Networking

Identify and approach local businesses (pediatricians, realtors, HR departments of large employers, fitness centers, etc.) to establish formal referral partnerships. Organize and attend local community events, fairs, and "meet-and-greets" to build brand awareness. Negotiate and implement "Preferred Provider" programs for employees of partner companies.

2. Lead Management & Conversion

Act as the primary point of contact for all new inquiries generated through outreach efforts. Conduct engaging, personalized tours of the daycare facility that highlight our unique curriculum and safety standards. Maintain a rigorous follow-up schedule via phone, email, and text to keep prospective parents engaged.

3. Sales & Enrollment Pipeline

Manage the "sales funnel" from the initial handshake at a community event to the first day of enrollment. Address parental concerns, overcome objections, and provide all necessary documentation to "close the deal." Track and report on outreach metrics (e.g., number of new leads, partnership meetings held, and conversion rates).

4. Qualifications

Experience:

2+ years in sales, community relations, or admissions (experience in childcare or education is a plus, but not required).

Communication:

Exceptional verbal and written communication skills; you should be as comfortable pitching to a CEO as you are chatting with a parent.

Hustle:

A "self-starter" mentality with the ability to work independently and find creative ways to reach new families.

Organization:

Strong CRM or lead-tracking skills to ensure no family falls through the cracks during the follow-up process.

Personality:

Warm, empathetic, and professional.
