DESCRIPTION The Sylvan director team drives excellence in the areas of New Family Engagement, Customer Service, Family Commitment, Student & Staff Success, Student Advancement, and Educational Development across the Sylvan Learning centers in Portsmouth and Salem, NH and Brookline and Weymouth, MA. Together, our director team brings over 35 years of Sylvan experience to our centers and our families. We seek a people-focused, education-minded director to grow with us in the area of Student & Staff Success.
The Director of Student & Staff Success is responsible for ensuring alignment between the Sylvan educational experience and the family’s academic goals and needs. The director serves our internal customers – our staff – and guides them through onboarding and initial training, provides ongoing coaching and professional development through informal and formal observations and evaluations, and creates a positive work environment for our team of educators. The director also serves our traditional customers – our families – and leads ongoing conferences monthly with the families of enrolled students to discuss each student’s progress toward academic goals and to make program and account changes as needed.
In addition, the Director of Student & Staff Success manages certain operational tasks, which may include:

• Call former families to check in and new enrollments to find out about their first week of instruction.
• Ensure that each center’s active student list is accurate.
