- Act as ALPHA's front-facing representative to schools, institutions, organisers, sponsors, and partners for business development.
- Plan revenue-generating events, camps, leagues, and tournaments together with coaches, and maintain consistent branding and promotions across the school and academy.

d. Coordination, Reporting & Systems

- Serve as the primary liaison between the Director and all ALPHA/Prarambhika departments — coaches, admissions, hostel, grounds, food, marketing, and operations.
- Track task timelines, follow up daily, and escalate delays; provide daily task updates and weekly progress reports to the Director and senior management.
