Our Mission

Our mission in Crimson Rise is to be the launching pad that equips young students

globally to compete on the world stage. Crimson’s technology, resources, and expertise remove barriers of geography and legacy, helping its students reach their greatest potential thanks to the dedication of their personalized Crimson teams.

As we expand our network of Crimson Rise and Boarding/Day School Admissions families, we are seeking a Student Success Manager to be the trusted bridge between those families and their child's Crimson team. This is the person who makes sure nothing is lost across cultural or language barriers—that parents are clear and aligned on their child's strategy, that concerns are resolved quickly, and that every family feels expertly looked after, whether their child is building a foundation in Rise or applying to boarding and day schools.

Our Team

The Rise Team includes over 20 full-time staff and dozens of part-time staff, spanning 4 continents and bringing together educators, innovators, artists, athletes, researchers, and advocates who believe every student deserves a personalized education experience regardless of where they're coming from. Hailing from top universities worldwide, our Strategists and Tutors bring their personal experiences to the table as they invest in the team's overall expertise and support parents and students in navigating today's increasingly complex education landscape.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

As a Student Success Manager, you are the dedicated point of contact for a portfolio of high-touch families, whose children are typically grades 6–8, ages 11–14. For all families, you keep communication open between parents and their child's Strategist—translating as needed, keeping parents aligned on the education strategy, and making sure concerns are resolved quickly. For admissions families, you coordinate with the Strategist to ensure they have a smooth application experience—tracking timelines, organizing materials, and helping them navigate private school admissions. In all cases, you are the consistent, trusted relationship that keeps each family clear, aligned, and well-served.

You will report to a Rise Team Lead, working in close partnership with the Rise or Boarding/Day Admissions Strategists, Tutors, and Mentors delivering each child's program. You’ll be responsible for:

• Client satisfaction and retention

• Student engagement in sessions and pairing with best-fit mentors

• Communication alignment between parents and their child's Crimson team

• Parent alignment on their child’s education strategy

• Rapid resolution of technical or programmatic concerns.
