Who We Are

With three campuses along Colorado’s Front Range, FRCC is the state’s largest community college. We enroll close to 28,000 students annually from our diverse service area, which offers a variety of cultural and recreational activities.

Each year approximately 5,000 FRCC students transfer to four-year universities and FRCC offers more than 36 career training programs that prepare students for immediate employment and rewarding careers. Last year, more than 5,000 high school students took concurrent enrollment classes with us, earning college credit without having to pay college tuition. And we were recently ranked as one of the “Top Online Colleges” in the country by Newsweek.

One of FRCC’s main goals is to offer educational excellence for everyone. The college’s strong commitment to student success means we start by creating an inclusive and equitable environment—one where both students and employees feel they belong and are supported. FRCC’s focus on diversity, equity and inclusion is woven into the fabric of our college conversations and decision-making processes. We are actively seeking to hire a workforce that reflects the diversity of our student body.

The college is also an emerging Hispanic Serving Institution. For us, becoming an HSI is an intentional commitment to being a college where our Latinx (and other historically marginalized) students thrive.

FRCC employees and leaders work hard to create a culture of collaboration, innovation and pride. We’re looking to hire people who share these values—along with our commitment to student success, equity and excellence.

Who You Are

Reporting directly to an Assistant Director of Advising, as a Bilingual Advisor, you will provide proactive, student-centered advising that supports student success, retention, and completion from a student’s first point of contact through graduation. As part of Front Range Community College’s commitment to proactive, relationship-based coaching and advising, this position will play a vital role in fostering belonging, confidence, and clarity for every student.

Bilingual Advisors will be assigned to one of two complementary tracks:

New Student Advising: focusing on onboarding and first-semester success.

OR

Student Success Advising: focusing on ongoing planning, goal-setting, persistence, and completion.

Both tracks are grounded in an equity-minded, holistic coaching approach that emphasizes proactive outreach, individualized support, and collaboration with faculty and campus partners to help students achieve their educational and career goals.

This position will have the opportunity to work remotely occasionally but will require a strong on campus presence to meet with students and build a culture of support and may require occasional travel to all three FRCC campuses for trainings, in-services, etc.

Please note: You need to be a Colorado resident on your first day of employment. Also, Front Range Community College is an E-Verify employer.

SALARY: $54,328 - $57,044 annually

The salary range reflects the minimum and maximum starting salary for the position. When determining the starting salary for a new employee, FRCC takes into consideration a combination of the selected candidate’s education, training and experience as it relates to the requirements of the position, as well as the position’s scope and complexity, internal pay equity and external market value.

BENEFITS: For information about benefits, please view APT & Faculty Benefits.

SELECTION PROCESS: Position will remain open until filled with a priority deadline of February 9, 2026. This posting may be used to fill multiple or similar positions.

The selection process for the Bilingual Advisor will be conducted through a competitive, merit-based evaluation of all qualified applicants. Preliminary screening will be based on the completed application package submitted by the candidate.
