About the role
Job Title: Education Operations Coordinator
Department: Education
Reports To: Senior Director of Learning and Engagement
FLSA Status: Non-Exempt, Full Time
Compensation: $58,000-$60,000
Organization
The Apollo is an American and global cultural and creative catalyst, dedicated to amplifying Black artistic excellence, innovation, and community through transformative performances, education, and advocacy.
Apollo Education
The Apollo's Education Department engages audiences of all ages through a variety of programs and events. These include workshops and residencies, performances, and distance learning for K-12 audiences; career and youth development through the Apollo Theater Academy; and events dedicated to deepening the understanding of the arts and cultural contributions of peoples of the African diaspora. As the Apollo is a world-renowned stage, our programs frequently link to the Theater's larger initiatives including performances, festivals, and the Apollo New Works series. With the addition of two new black box theaters in 2022, our education programs are poised for an exciting period of growth and expansion.
Position Summary
The Education Operations Administrator supports the overall initiatives of the Apollo's Education Department by organizing and maintaining the systems, records, and data that keep daily administrative functions running smoothly. The Coordinator provides direct support and works closely with the Senior Director of Learning and Engagement and is often in the first line of communication for customer inquiries regarding Apollo Education programs. Because this role has access to sensitive information — including participants, financial, and contractual records — discretion, reliability, and sound judgment are just as important as technical and organizational skills. The Coordinator performs other duties as assigned in order to support the successful delivery of overall Education programs and services.
