The Opportunity

As a College Admissions Manager , you will play a pivotal role in shaping student journeys—from the initial counselling roadmap to university acceptances. You'll lead a team of counselors, collaborate with mentors and editors, and personally support ambitious students in building distinctive, high-impact profiles. You will also contribute to our mission by enhancing team capabilities, elevating strategic planning, and delivering outstanding student outcomes.

This is an exciting opportunity for a dynamic, empathetic, and intellectually driven professional looking to make a real impact in the global education space.

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.

Qualifications & Skills

  • Bachelor's and Master's degree in any discipline (preferably from or with experience studying in the U.S., U.K., or Canada).
  • 3-5 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.
  • Why Join Rostrum Education

  • Impactful Work : Play a transformative role in the lives of ambitious, global-minded students, guiding them toward the world's best universities.
  • Vision-Driven Culture : Join a team that values mentorship, excellence, and personal connection over transactional guidance.
  • Dynamic Environment : Work in a close-knit, supportive team where collaboration, curiosity, and initiative are celebrated.
  • International Outlook : Be part of a multicultural, globally connected organization with a strong network of experts, mentors, and educators.
  • Growth & Development : Competitive compensation, meaningful responsibilities, and a clear path for professional growth in the education sector.
  • Work Hard, Think Deep, Laugh Often : We brainstorm hard, counsel smart, and yes—bond over coffee, playlist debates, and great food.
  • Ready to shape the future of tomorrow's changemakers
