- Excellent written and spoken English; additional languages are a plus.
- Comfortable with CRM or spreadsheet-based tracking; willing to keep notes tight and actionable.
- Self-directed: you propose targets, experiments, and follow-through without heavy hand-holding.
- Genuine interest in college access, financial aid clarity, and student outcomes.
Nice to have
- Existing relationships in college counseling, IEC, or international student communities.
- Experience with tools like HubSpot, Notion, or similar.
- Familiarity with how aid letters and net price work at a high level.
Campus Ambassador
Part-time / flexible (academic-year commitment)On your campus (US and other regions welcome)
About the role
Campus ambassadors represent Dakhila where students already compare offers and stress about cost: dorms, group chats, clubs, and social. You help peers discover a clearer way to compare aid and projected debt, and you bring real campus signal back to our team.
What you will do
- Spread awareness of Dakhila through ethical, school-policy-friendly channels (tabling where allowed, group chats, presentations, social).
- Help interested students get started with course / aid comparison and answer basic questions or escalate to our team.
- Run small experiments (e.g., dorm storm, workshop with a club) and share what worked.
- Collect feedback and stories (with permission) so we can improve the product.
- Meet simple reporting cadence (e.g., weekly check-in or short written update).
What we are looking for
- Current undergraduate or graduate student in good standing at your institution.
- Comfortable communicating in writing and in person; organized and reliable.
- Interest in financial aid, college choice, or helping peers reduce money stress.
- No spam or misleading claims—you represent Dakhila honestly and respect campus rules.
Why do it
- Leadership experience and portfolio-worthy growth work.
- Performance-based incentives and recognition for top ambassadors.
- Direct line to a small team building tools students actually use.
- Certificate or recommendation for strong contributors (details shared with selected candidates).
