The opportunity

This senior Academic Advisor opening at Retail Partners suits someone who'd rather master Strategic Planning than coast on 7 of habit. This CT role reads like an upgrade — $90,000 - $132,000, part-time hours, 7 years valued, and a path that does not dead-end.

Key Responsibilities

  • Close the loop on every Hartford request you touch
  • Turn ambiguous Work Ethic requests into shipped, measurable outcomes
  • Notice when a general metric is lying and dig in
  • Ensure compliance with company policies and applicable CT regulations
  • Apply Strategic Planning and Communication to solve day-to-day operational challenges

What You'll Bring

  • Calm under the spirited-and-grounded chaos a senior role tends to generate
  • The discipline to document while it's fresh, not after it's forgotten
  • Demonstrated comfort presenting to senior leadership
  • Around 6+ years of hands-on experience in a general role
  • Comfortable presenting ideas to stakeholders at every level
  • Proven aptitude for Strategic Planning, ideally near Hartford, CT
  • A communication style that translates jargon back into plain English

Retail Partners is an unpretentious, customer-obsessed general company proudly built in Hartford, CT. Collaboration over heroics is our default, and we'd rather win as a group than burn anyone out.

What we put on the table: $90,000 - $132,000, coaching for your Stress Management, benefits worth having, and freedom to grow at your own pace.

We just refreshed it, so the general role counts as live and hiring.

Qualified candidates are encouraged to apply as soon as possible.
