  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Foster dynamic interdepartmental partnerships and leverage subject matter expertise at key moments to accelerate progress and drive successful outcomes
  • Technical Acumen: Expertly navigates both sales enablement platforms (like CRMs, lead scoring tools, and analytics dashboards) and literacy-focused edtech platforms—bridging product functionality with strategic insight to accelerate adoption, drive engagement, and support educator outcomes
  • Travel Readiness: Willingness and ability to travel up to 10% to meet with prospects and attend key events

Requirements

  • Minimum of a Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
  • Proven track record of 5+ years exceeding sales quotas in a new business development role required
  • Experience within the education technology or services space, literacy/reading products highly preferred
  • Deep knowledge of the K–12 education landscape, including funding cycles, decision-making hierarchies, and instructional priorities highly preferred
  • Demonstrated ability to develop and execute strategic account plans across multiple stakeholders
  • Demonstrated ability to uncover client needs and propose solutions to close new business opportunities and meet new revenue targets on an ongoing basis
  • Proficient user of CRM (Salesforce), MS Office and Google Suites, video conferencing software and other technology-based productivity tools
  • Exceptional verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to adapt messaging to different audiences
  • High emotional intelligence and resilience
  • thrives in a fast-paced, high-rejection environment
  • Experience working with school districts and navigating long sales cycles
  • Ability to think like a consultant—strategically, empathetically, and insightfully—not just as a transactional seller
  • Experience working the whole sales cycle from prospecting to closing deals at both the district and school levels
  • Ability to practice a clear, repeatable strategy used to win new business across multiple accounts
  • Passion for literacy and educational equity, aligned with our mission to “create opportunity for every student through the power of literacy”
