We're seeking a motivated, relationship-driven EdPlus Re-Entry Enrollment Specialist to join our Re-Entry team in the EdPlus Enrollment Center. Every day you'll make a meaningful difference by providing specialized, high-touch enrollment support to former ASU students who are ready to return to their education. You will guide students who are no longer term-active through the steps that stand between them and enrollment, including reapplying, completing readmission requirements, and navigating any additional processes along the way.

As a consistent point of contact from initial inquiry through successful re-enrollment, you will build trusting, supportive relationships with students and keep them engaged and moving forward. Your work will directly support ASU's broader re-entry strategy, including Operation Comeback and other re-engagement efforts.

• Maintains proactive, timely communication with students through approved outreach channels, establishing clear next steps and following cases through completion to reduce stalled or abandoned re-entry attempts.
• Provides clear, accurate guidance on re-entry policies, programs, timelines, and processes, and escalates complex cases to the appropriate specialized resource when needed.
• Coordinates with Enrollment Services, colleges and academic units, Financial Aid Support Services, Student Business Services, the Registrar, and other university partners to resolve barriers while maintaining a coordinated student experience.
• Supports proactive re-engagement campaigns for former students, including populations not currently term-active or not yet eligible for existing scholarship initiatives.
• Contributes to graduation and completion efforts by identifying students near completion and coordinating appropriate reviews or referrals to support progress toward a credential.
• Documents student interactions, case status, barriers, resolutions, and outcomes in university systems; analyzes caseload and enrollment data to identify trends, conversion opportunities, recurring barriers, and process improvements.
• Assumes or coordinates other duties or projects as assigned or directed.

Desired Qualifications:

• Evidence of a bachelor's degree or higher in a related field.
• Evidence of a people-oriented approach with experience guiding others through education-related processes and decisions, such as admissions, readmission, and enrollment.
• Evidence of effective and persuasive communication and presentation skills.
• Experience working with online programs and students in a higher education environment.
• Experience developing, facilitating, and maintaining strong, collaborative relationships with populations.
• Experience using Salesforce, MS Office and Google Suite.
• Evidence of strong organizational, time management, and prioritization skills, with excellent attention to detail and the ability to manage a high-volume caseload.
• Experience following guidelines, structure, and established policy to deliver accurate and precise information.
