Tokyo Academics is the passion project of a constellation of teachers, researchers, and academics from around the world. Since 2012, we’ve evolved from a few university friends to a growing number of part-time and full-time individuals located in Tokyo, as well as working remotely. We are an organization of experts deeply passionate about helping students meet their potential and capture the opportunities of the future.
We are looking for a professional College Admissions Consultant to help students make decisions around their current high school trajectory and future college options, preparing them for the college admissions process.
We have flexible hours to fit your schedule. Part-time, in-person work arrangements are preferable, however, we also offer remote flexibility throughout the week.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a fast-paced startup of 150+ team members around the world. You will play a significant role in helping students build their future by identifying their strengths and leveraging them to create new opportunities.
*Relocation support and visa sponsorship available!
