About Us:

BDC – Bright Direction Centre is a growing student support and education consulting company based in Mississauga, Ontario. We specialize in helping students, newcomers, and career changers access government grants, post-secondary funding, and career-focused college programs across Ontario.

Position Summary:

We are seeking enthusiastic, results-driven Admissions Advisors to join our dynamic, in-person team in Mississauga. This role is ideal for individuals who are passionate about education, enjoy working with people, and thrive in a fast-paced, goal-oriented environment.

As an Admissions Advisor, you will be the first point of contact for prospective students, meeting with them face-to-face to provide personalized guidance on academic programs, career pathways, and funding options. Your role doesn't stop at enrollment — you'll also be responsible for tracking student files, monitoring their admissions status, and ensuring ongoing communication with both students and the college to support a smooth transition into their programs.

Responsibilities:

  • Conduct in-person consultations with walk-in and referred prospective students to understand their goals and provide tailored guidance
  • Manage a high volume of inbound and outbound calls, ensuring timely, professional, and supportive communication
  • Make proactive outreach calls to follow up with leads, re-engage prospects, and schedule appointments
  • Clearly explain available funding options and career-focused academic programs in an accessible and engaging manner
  • Utilize CRM tools to manage leads, update statuses, log communications, and track follow-ups accurately and efficiently
  • Consistently achieve monthly enrollment targets while delivering a positive and informative student experience
  • Work collaboratively with internal teams and partner institutions to support a seamless admissions and enrollment process
  • Track student progress post-enrollment, maintain detailed records, and ensure open, ongoing communication with both students and the college

Requirements:

  • Minimum 1 year of experience in sales, admissions, advising, or a high-volume call center environment
  • Comfortable with handling a high volume of calls, including cold calling and follow-ups
  • Proficient in using CRM platforms such as GoHighLevel, Salesforce, HubSpot, or similar tools
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build rapport quickly and maintain a professional tone
  • Fluency in English is required; additional languages such as Punjabi, Hindi, or Urdu are considered an asset
  • Must be available to work on-site at our Mississauga location — this is not a remote position

What We Offer:

  • Commission-based earning structure with top performers earning $1,000–$1,200 per week
  • Steady flow of daily walk-in traffic and qualified warm leads — no need to generate your own pipeline
  • Comprehensive training and ongoing support to help you succeed and grow in your role
  • Fast-paced, team-oriented environment with a strong focus on professional development and performance
  • The opportunity to make a meaningful impact by helping individuals pursue education and transform their futures
