We are seeking an experienced academic counselor to join our team as a Student Journey Coordinator. In this role, you will play a pivotal part in shaping the academic journeys of ambitious students from initial counseling to university acceptances.

You will lead a team of counselors, collaborate with mentors and editors, and personally support students in building distinctive profiles that set them apart from their peers.

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in academic counseling, university admissions, or education advisory roles, with excellent communication and organizational skills.

• Key Responsibilities:
• Oversee and support students through the entire undergraduate admissions process, from onboarding to final university decisions.
• Guide students in developing strong academic and extracurricular profiles, including research, internships, competitions, and community impact projects.
• Strategize personalized student journeys by advising on subject selection, standardized testing, university shortlisting, and long-term academic planning.
• Review and provide detailed feedback on all application components, including personal statements, SOPs, LORs, essays, resumes, and forms.
• Step in for complex student cases to offer direct mentorship, resolve issues, and ensure high-quality outcomes.
• Manage and mentor a team of counselors, ensuring consistency, timely communication, and adherence to admissions timelines.
• Coordinate with internal teams—mentors, editors, and test prep specialists—to align strategy and execution for each student.
• Organize internal trainings, case reviews, and brainstorming sessions to strengthen team capabilities.
• Provide expert guidance on U.S., U.K., and Canadian admissions platforms such as Common App, UCAS, and OUAC.
• Advise families on academic equivalencies, scholarship opportunities, interview preparation, and offer comparisons.
• Maintain clear communication with students and parents, provide regular progress updates, and ensure client satisfaction.
• Track and document student milestones to ensure timely completion of deliverables and a smooth admissions process.
• Share insights and feedback with leadership to support operational improvements and elevate the overall student experience.

To be successful in this role, you will need:

• A Bachelor's and Master's degree in any discipline (preferably from or with experience studying in the U.S., U.K., or Canada).
• 2–4 years of experience in academic counseling, university admissions, or education advisory roles.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills, especially in academic and admissions writing.
• Proven organizational and multitasking abilities, with the confidence to manage multiple high-stakes student timelines.
• Empathetic, detail-oriented, and proactive—able to build trust with students and families and ensure nothing falls through the cracks.
• Collaborative mindset; comfortable working cross-functionally with mentors, editors, and academic leads.
• Familiarity with undergraduate/postgraduate platforms such as Common App, UCAS, and OUAC is strongly preferred.
• A passion for education, student growth, and lifelong learning.

We are a leading global education consultancy empowering high school students to gain admission to the most competitive universities across the U.S., U.K., Canada, and beyond.

Our mission is to bridge the gap between student potential and world-class education, providing end-to-end mentorship—from early profile building and academic planning to final application submissions and admissions success.

We take pride in our transformative work, shaping the lives of ambitious, global-minded students and guiding them toward the world's best universities.

By joining our team, you will be part of a vision-driven culture that values mentorship, excellence, and personal connection over transactional guidance.

You will work in a dynamic environment where collaboration, curiosity, and initiative are celebrated, with a focus on impactful work, international outlook, and growth & development opportunities.
