About The Position

The Family Success Manager (FSM) is a subject-matter expert for their assigned states, owning the success of their assigned families from onboarding through re-enrollment. This role focuses on proactive relationship building and retention efforts, making decisions on how to keep each family engaged.

Own the onboarding experience from enrollment through a successful start, including orientations, Q&A sessions, and parent 1:1s.
Ensure families understand learning expectations, attendance, learning logs, funding, ordering, academic supports, and key deadlines.
Assess student and family needs and determine the appropriate intervention, including additional academic support or connecting them to tutoring, live support, or the Learning Team.
Maintain expert-level knowledge of the OpenEd platform, curriculum/resources, wallet/funding, ordering, tutoring, the Learning Team, assessments, learning logs, attendance, onboarding, and partner districts.
Serve as the state SME on program requirements, state deadlines, enrollment and partner-district requirements, attendance and assessment rules, funding basics, grade placement rules, and state-specific parent pain points.
