The ideal candidate will be an energetic, dynamic, and articulate team player; have strong organizational, writing, and public speaking skills; and be able to work in a fast-paced environment.

Please also provide two letters of reference either through the portal or by asking each recommender to e-mail a pdf to pafac@andover.edu with your full name and the position for which you’re applying noted in the subject line.

Phillips Academy is an intentionally diverse residential school committed to creating an equitable and inclusive community in which students from diverse backgrounds, cultures, and experiences learn and grow together. The ideal candidate embraces and supports this commitment. In your cover letter, please explain your experience and/or interest in working in such a school community. There is a strong internal candidate for this position.
Phillips Academy requires that all student-facing faculty, staff, and administrators, subject to disability and religious accommodation exceptions under federal and state law, be up to date with their COVID vaccination, which includes any boosters that have been added to meet the CDC definition of “up to date,” which now includes the new bivalent booster. Furthermore, although faculty will be expected to perform their duties in person, there may be some students who need to learn remotely, and so faculty may be required to teach in a hybrid mode—i.e., with some students in person and others online.
Phillips Academy is committed to equal employment opportunity and providing reasonable accommodations to applicants with physical and/or mental disabilities. We value and encourage diversity and solicit applications from all qualified applicants without regard to race, color, national origin, ancestry, religion, sex, pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender expression, gender identity, age, physical or mental disability, genetic information, veteran status, military service, application for military service or any other characteristic protected by law. Any offers of employment will be contingent upon successful CORI/SORI and fingerprinting background checks, as well as unrestricted authorization to work in the United States.
Joining a highly successful admission and financial aid team, the candidate should have 3-5 years of admission experience and be ready to participate actively in the residential and athletic/co-curricular programs at this boarding school. This is a 12-month, full-time, housed administrative faculty position. Throughout the academic year, evening and weekend work is required.
