Nature of the Opportunity At Grad Coach, we believe coaches do their best work when given autonomy, flexibility, and ownership. Our partnership-based model focuses on outcomes (clearly defined success metrics) rather than inputs (rigid working hours, extensive procedures, admin, etc.). In essence, we focus on the "what" (results) and give you as much control over the "how" as possible. This is a contract-based role, allowing you to decide when, where, and how you work. Its ideal for entrepreneurially inclined academics who excel in a competitive environment with clearly defined success metrics. Coaches earn $50 for each billable hour (i.e., time spent directly engaged with clients). As a ballpark, high-performing coaches typically bill 75100 hours per month, earning $3,750$5,000 monthly.
