Position Overview
We’re seeking an Operations Coordinator to coordinate the operational systems and processes that keep ALP Triangle's program running smoothly, from recruiting and enrolling new tutors in training to supporting program data, assisting with marketing and communications, and day-to-day logistics.

About the Role

ALP-Triangle relies on a strong pipeline of trained volunteer tutors, well-coordinated school site logistics, and accurate program and donor data to deliver high-quality literacy tutoring. The Operations Coordinator plays a central role in making this happen, from managing the tutor recruitment process from first contact through training completion, supporting Student Success Coordinators (SSCs) with data and reporting, and assisting the Development Director with marketing and communications.

This role is well-suited to someone who is highly organized, detail-oriented, and energized by improving how things work. ALP-Triangle is open to this person's input on improving our current processes and systems. If you see a better way to track recruitment data, manage timelines, or streamline communication, we want to hear it!

No prior experience with Pencil Spaces, Bloomerang, or Mailchimp is required. Training is provided.

A successful Operations Coordinator will have most or all of the following:

Strong organizational skills with high attention to detail
Comfort learning and managing multiple digital platforms (training provided for Pencil Spaces, Bloomerang, Google Business Suite, and Canva)
Project management skills: Able to track multiple timelines, pipelines, and deliverables simultaneously
Growth mindset: Resourceful, with the ability to seek out new skills or knowledge when asked to do something new
Problem-solving mindset: Able to anticipate issues and troubleshoot independently without waiting to be asked
Strong written and oral communication skills: This includes tutor-facing correspondence as well as internal communications
Comfort with data tracking and reporting, and following up with colleagues on deadlines in a collaborative, supportive way
Interest in identifying and implementing process improvements, including using technology in creative ways to automate systems and improve effectiveness
Experience with recruitment, volunteer coordination, donor databases, or nonprofit administration is a plus, but not required

Bilingual or multilingual candidates are strongly encouraged to apply (e.g., Spanish, or other languages reflective of our communities).

Part-Time Student Success Coordinator at 6-10 hours/week per site
Augustine Literacy Project – Durham, NC (Hybrid Role)

About Us
The Augustine Literacy Project - Triangle (www.alptriangle.org) works to advance reading proficiency and educational equity for young learners across the Triangle. Our culturally responsive, community-rooted programming centers literacy as a tool for empowerment. We are a small, committed team with a big vision!

Position Overview
We’re seeking a Student Success Coordinator to support the implementation of literacy interventions by monitoring student progress as volunteer tutors deliver the ALP curriculum, while also ensuring smooth site operations.

About the Role

Currently, ALP Triangle is providing one-on-one literacy instruction for students who are a year or more behind in first- or second-grade assessment benchmarks in decoding, encoding, and basic phonological awareness, and who would not otherwise have access to 1-1 tutoring in foundational literacy skills. Our tutors provide free, long-term, one-on-one instruction using research-based methodology.

To ensure high-quality tutoring sessions and a positive experience for volunteers and school staff, ALP provides a Student Success Coordinator for each school site. The Student Success Coordinator is present at their assigned school(s) during tutoring sessions and monitors tutor-student interactions. The coordinator also serves as ALP's liaison to the school, streamlining communication with teachers and managing volunteers.

Full training is provided on our curriculum and the digital platform we use!.
