About the Role

Do you thrive in environments where every detail matters and every person who walks through the door deserves a great experience? We're looking for a Preview Events Specialist who is the kind of person guests remember — warm, organized, and genuinely invested in helping others.

As a Preview Events Specialist, you'll be the welcoming presence at our preview workshops for prospective students. You'll keep events running smoothly, ensure attendees feel informed and at ease, and follow up with those who need more support in their registration process. You will work alongside our Preview Presenters, in Ridgefield Park, NJ, and at remote events around the local area. Your work directly supports people exploring a meaningful next step in their financial education journey.

• Support presenters and ensure all participants — including online attendees — are comfortable and engaged

• Help interested participants complete enrollment using digital or paper tools

• Maintain accurate attendance records and distribute daily event reports in Salesforce

Prospect Follow-Up & Support

• Answer questions, provide additional information, and support informed enrollment registration

• Log all communications and tasks in Salesforce
