Admissions Representative - Higher Ed. jobs in Houston, TX

There comes a point in many peoples’ lives where they wonder, ‘what’s next?’ They may be a year or two out of high school and are yet to find their path; they might be a little older and thinking of a career change, or maybe they’ve left the military and are searching for their next mission. Whatever their past, your goal – as an admissions representative for one of the country’s best trade schools - is to help them define their future in an essential trade.

The successful applicant will be responsible for presenting the career opportunities, the school, the campus, and its programs to prospective students who are one year or more out of high school in the local area. For most, you will be their first contact with the school, so your customer service skills must be on point.

• You will help and consult with prospective students on the benefits of an education in the trades.
• It’s important that you accurately and compliantly communicate the campus features and program information to prospective students.
• Not only is it necessary, but the successful applicant should want to participate in follow-up activities with enrolled students to check on their progress through their program.
• You will forecast student numbers to allow the school to accurately account classroom occupancy.
• You will input all activity into our database management system in a timely and accurate manner.
• One of the most satisfying parts of this role is attending our semi-annual graduation ceremonies, watching students walk the stage as they complete their program; attendance is mandatory.

Physical Environment:

This is an office position, although some work may be completed in a classroom or shop environment.

• Most work is performed in a temperature-controlled office environment.
• The successful applicant may sit for long periods of time at a desk and/or at a computer.
