Full Job Description

About Y2 Academy Parsippany & Bridgewater

Y2 Academy is an established SAT preparation center serving families across Morris and Somerset counties for over a decade, known for small-group instruction and structured, results-driven programs. We are launching a full college counseling and admissions service — and we are looking for the counselor who will lead it.

This is a ground-floor opportunity: you will shape the counseling program's process, work directly with motivated students and engaged families, and grow with the program as it expands. Many of our counseling families come from our existing SAT programs, so you will begin with warm relationships rather than a cold start.

What you will do

- Guide students (grades 9–12) through the full college admissions process, from initial roadmap through final decision

- Build balanced college lists (reach / match / safety) grounded in academic fit, student goals, and net-price awareness

- Advise on application strategy, including Early Decision / Early Action / Regular Decision timing

- Coach students through the Common App personal statement and supplemental essays — guiding their authentic voice, never ghostwriting

- Review course selection and extracurricular strategy for underclassmen on multi-year plans

- Lead parent meetings and maintain clear milestone visibility so families always know where their student stands

- Conduct interview preparation and support financial aid conversations (specialist referral available for FAFSA/CSS depth)

- Collaborate with the Center Director on program design, cohort caps, and the counseling curriculum

Who we are looking for

Required (at least one of the following):

- Former admissions officer experience at a college or university

- High school counseling experience with direct college advising responsibilities

- Independent Educational Consultant experience, ideally with IECA or HECA membership

- A college counseling certificate (e.g., UCLA or UC Irvine College Counseling Certificate) plus relevant advising experience

Also required:

- Excellent written feedback skills — essay coaching is a core part of this role

- Comfort presenting to and building trust with parents

- Familiarity with the Common App, current testing landscape (Digital SAT/ACT), and ED/EA/RD timelines

- Bachelor's degree

Preferred:

- Experience advising for selective admissions, BS/MD pathways, or specialty tracks (arts, athletics)

- Bilingual ability valued by our community (e.g., Gujarati, Hindi, Mandarin, Korean, Spanish)

- Experience with counseling CRM tools or willingness to work within our milestone-tracking system

Why this role

- Lead a new program rather than inherit someone else's caseload

- Small, protected cohort sizes — depth over volume

- An established brand, a decade of family relationships, and marketing already in motion

- Direct collaboration with an owner-operator who closes enrollments personally and will support your work with families

How to apply

Along with your resume, we would welcome a short note describing one student admissions situation you are proud of navigating (no identifying details) — it tells us more than a cover letter.

Pay: $40.00 - $65.00 per hour

Work Location: In person
