Reporting to the Dean of Admissions and Financial Aid, the new hire will join a highly collaborative Admissions team that aspires to enroll a diverse and talented student body.

The position includes interviewing, travel, and applicant assessment as part of the Admissions Committee, and other projects as assigned. The typical admission officer interviews approximately 160-180 applicants a year; travels in and out of state for roughly three weeks; reads 400 applications a year; and manages or assists with a variety of office tasks and projects. Saturdays are required when school is in session, and there are occasional required Admission Office or School evening events.

As a residential school, Middlesex considers the work of faculty more broadly. When we are at our best, we are engaging with our students both in and out of the classroom. Applicants should be deeply committed to embracing and supporting the diversity of our student body. Faculty members at Middlesex may be responsible for weekly evening and occasional weekend supervisory duties. They may also be responsible for contributing to the life of the school through athletics and extracurricular activities. Competitive salary and benefits, including a strong professional development program, will be commensurate with qualifications and experience. 

Prior admissions experience is preferred, although we will consider candidates who bring transferable skills and the interest in working in a residential community. Middlesex School is committed to bringing together a diverse faculty, staff, and student body. We encourage candidates who represent the broad, diverse community to which we aspire. 

Middlesex School is an Equal Opportunity Employer committed to an inclusive school experience for all.
