POSITION SUMMARY

The School Director at Primrose School is primarily responsible for increasing enrollments and managing the overall operations of the school. As the School Director, your dedication to the success of our next generation will ensure we deliver on our mission of bringing the best and most trusted early childhood education and care to the families we serve.

ABOUT THE COMPANY

Primrose Schools is a mission-driven brand, and at Primrose School, there are not only opportunities for professional development and growth but also for giving back to your local community through Spring Fling and charity events. As the leader in early education and care, our research-informed Balanced Learning® approach provides teachers with the tools and guidance to accommodate children’s natural curiosity and to fully support each child while building problem-solving skills and confidence. We are continuously working toward our mission of building a brighter future for all children—not only those who are able to attend a Primrose school—and every member of our organization plays a critical role in accomplishing that mission.

OBJECTIVES

  • Lead efforts to maintain and grow student enrollment, conducting tours, and working closely with families to promote the benefits of the Primrose curriculum and approach.
  • Manage the daily operations of the school, ensuring a safe, nurturing, and educational environment for children and staff.
  • Develop strategies for retaining qualified staff and building strong relationships with families through effective communication and community involvement.
  • Maintain a thorough understanding of state licensing regulations and Primrose standards, ensuring the school adheres to all relevant policies and procedures.
  • Oversee the school’s financial operations, including budget development, expense tracking, and payroll management to ensure the financial health of the school.
  • Foster an inclusive, positive school culture that encourages collaboration, open communication, and a strong sense of community.

COMPETENCIES

  • The ability to clearly articulate the benefits of the Primrose curriculum and approach, tailoring the message to address the specific needs and concerns of prospective families.
  • Establishing trust and rapport with families to ensure they feel confident in choosing Primrose for their child’s education.
  • Ability to inspire and guide staff, manage school operations, and maintain a productive, positive work environment.
  • Strong verbal and written communication abilities to effectively engage with staff, parents, and children, as well as present information clearly and professionally.
  • Skilled in analyzing situations, resolving issues, and making sound decisions, especially in high-pressure or time-sensitive scenarios.

EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE

  • A Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood Education, Elementary Education, or a related field
  • 2+ years of experience driving enrollment growth initiatives

COMPENSATION

  • $62,000-$70,000 annual
  • Incentive compensation based on enrollments: $500 - $1500 monthly

PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS

  • Ability to move around the school, including standing, walking, and navigating between classrooms, offices, and outdoor play areas.
  • Occasionally lift and carry items such as educational materials, office supplies, or classroom equipment (typically up to 25-30 pounds).

COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY

As an equal opportunity employer committed to meeting the needs of a multigenerational and multicultural workforce, Primrose Schools recognizes that a diverse staff, reflective of our community, is an integral and welcome part of a successful and ethical business. We hire local talent at all levels regardless of race, color, religion, age, national origin, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation or disability, and actively foster inclusion in all forms both within our company and across interactions with clients, candidates and partners.
