Florida (Miami, Orlando, or Tampa preferred)
CANDIDATE PROFILE
▶️ The Brand Architect: A master storyteller who can craft a compelling, mission-driven narrative that positions BridgePrep as a top-tier choice for bilingual-enriched education.
▶️ The Growth Engineer: A data-obsessed strategist who builds high-conversion funnels, manages complex media buys, and treats enrollment as a precise science.
▶️ The Practitioner: A hands-on leader who spends 50% of their time on-site, auditing campus routines and coaching local teams to provide world-class family engagement.
▶️ The Talent Partner: A collaborative executive who doesn't just find students, but works alongside the Talent Team to market the organization as an elite destination for educators.
SUMMARY
The Vice President of Marketing and Communications functions as the chief brand architect and growth strategist for the BridgePrep and SMART-managed networks. Reporting to the COO, this leader is responsible for crafting a compelling narrative that positions the organization as a premier choice for bilingual-enriched education while ensuring 21+ campuses reach 100% enrollment. Unlike a traditional sales role, this position focuses on high-level ecosystem management: building sophisticated digital lead-generation funnels, overseeing complex media buys, and maintaining brand integrity across diverse social media platforms. By establishing rigorous analytics to track applicant acquisition costs and conversion rates, the VP ensures that marketing spend translates directly into a robust student body and a fully staffed organization.
On the ground, the role is highly collaborative and operational, requiring the VP to spend over half their time traveling to campuses to audit recruitment efforts and train staff in "customer-centric" family engagement. Success is measured through precise data benchmarks, such as maintaining a 3:1 application-to-seat ratio and achieving a 99% hire rate for staff. By bridging the gap between creative storytelling and technical data infrastructure, the VP ensures that every school—from established locations to new launches—demonstrates a consistent, mission-aligned presence that resonates with families and educators alike across the Florida market.
