Student Re-Enrollment Advisor, Senior Associate

EAB•Washington, DC

1d•Remote

About The Position

The Student Re-Enrollment Advisor supports previously enrolled students through EAB's re-enrollment service. The Advisor manages proactive outreach, develops clear re-enrollment plans with students, helps identify and navigate barriers, and coordinates with partner institutions to move students from initial engagement through successful re-enrollment. This is not a traditional academic advising role. Advisors do not make academic, financial aid, or institutional decisions on behalf of partner institutions. Instead, they provide structured, student-centered guidance, sustained follow-up, and coordinated support within defined playbooks and escalation paths. Success is measured through student engagement, completion of re-enrollment milestones, effective barrier navigation and institutional coordination, data quality, and ultimately student re-enrollment outcomes. This role offers the opportunity to work on a high-visibility service focused on enrollment recovery and student re-engagement. The Advisor will work closely with the Program Manager for Student Re-Enrollment and VP of Student Success & Analytics while serving as a consistent point of support for students and coordinating closely with partner institutions. The Advisor will directly influence student outcomes while helping EAB strengthen and scale a repeatable, revenue-linked service model. Student conversations, campaign performance, and frontline insights from this role will directly inform how EAB improves its re-enrollment strategy, technology, partner processes, and service model as the program expands. This position may be based in Washington D.C.; Richmond, VA; or is open to remote employment within the continental United States.

Maintain accurate, consistent documentation of student interactions, barriers, commitments, handoffs, outcomes, and follow-up actions in EAB's Navigate360 CRM and outreach tools.
