The Part-time Student Success & Pathways Officer at The Cooper Union expands access to The Cooper Union’s precollege STEM programs by actively managing the student recruitment and engagement pipeline from initial outreach through application, enrollment, and early academic persistence. Student Success & Pathways Officer — Revised Job Description TITLE: Student Success & Pathways Officer DEPARTMENT: STEM Pre-College Programs (STEM Outreach), School of Engineering REPORTS TO: Director of STEM Outreach TYPE: Part-time: 25 hours/week, Exempt, Non-Union Last Edited: 08.15.2026 JOB SUMMARY The Part-time Student Success & Pathways Officer expands access to The Cooper Union’s precollege STEM programs by actively managing the student recruitment and engagement pipeline from initial outreach through application, enrollment, and early academic persistence. This is a high-autonomy, hands-on role for a fast-paced thinker and exceptionally strong independent operator who can move fluidly between strategy and execution. The successful candidate must be able to identify what needs to happen next, investigate details, solve problems, make sound judgment calls, and move work forward without waiting for step-by-step direction or administrative support. The Officer serves as a one-person recruitment, engagement, and student-pathways operation within the STEM Pre-College Programs team. This individual must be equally comfortable developing a recruitment strategy, calling a school counselor, analyzing application conversion data, cleaning a CRM record, following up with a family, troubleshooting an enrollment issue, creating a tracking system, and noticing that an important detail has fallen through the cracks. This role is best suited for someone who: • Thinks quickly and critically and can assess a situation, determine priorities, and act., • Is naturally inclined to get into the weeds and investigate details rather than assuming someone else will handle them., • Demonstrates exceptional follow-through and is persistent about closing loops., • Can manage multiple active recruitment and student-engagement priorities simultaneously., • Works independently and does not require an assistant or extensive administrative infrastructure to remain organized and effective., • Understands that successful recruitment depends not only on outreach, but also on meticulous tracking, timely follow-up, relationship management, and conversion., • Can distinguish between what is urgent, what is important, and what requires escalation to the Director., • Takes ownership of outcomes rather than simply completing assigned tasks. This is a student-facing, partner-facing, strategic and execution-oriented position grounded in relationship-based recruitment, pathway navigation, operational excellence, and data-informed decision-making. It is not a clerical or administrative “catch-all” position; however, the successful candidate must be willing and able to personally execute the detailed operational work necessary to produce results.

Enrollment & Application First-Glance Review — 2.5 Hours Strategic Focus: Maintain momentum across active application cycles by identifying incomplete, incorrectly submitted, or stalled applications before they become lost enrollments.

Persistence Supports — 3.0 Hours Strategic Focus: Identify students who may require additional academic or pathway support and coordinate timely interventions.

SLATE/CRM Data Hygiene & Systems Navigation — 1.0 Hour Strategic Focus: Maintain accurate systems and reliable student records so that recruitment and enrollment decisions are based on trustworthy information.
