Educational Sales Consultant

Are you a highly motivated consultative Sales professional at the early stages of your career with experience/interest in the education space, and based in Egypt? Our client, an innovative publisher of digital and online educational resources has two opportunities (1 in Egypt and 1 in Kenya) for a driven Educational Sales Consultant to develop new business opportunities for their International Schools business. This remote role will be based in the territory, ideally Cairo (or anywhere in Egypt) and for an initial 12 months, where the successful candidate will be employed as a Contractor (so would need to either be set up as a contractor already or happy to set themselves up as one.)
As Educational Sales Consultant for Egypt you will work remotely as part of a friendly, supportive team and be responsible for achieving revenue growth through increasing sales and establishing new partnerships with International Schools across the region (either Egypt or Kenya), promoting and selling the company's digital and online education products. As the 'face' of the sales team, and the first point of contact with customers, you'll own the customer relationships. You will use consultative selling techniques to generate new business through discussions with educators, librarians, and school leaders, strengthening relationships and closing deals to build a strong pipeline. Working with the Area Sales Manager, Strategic Partnerships Manager, Customer Success and Marketing leads you will devise and implement key account strategy across core territories.
The ideal candidate will be a strong team player with a focused and hardworking approach and have proven experience of achieving sales targets and new business growth - the role would suit someone at the early stages of their career looking to pursue a career in sales or education with a prestigious organisation. As well as having excellent communication and presentation skills, the Educational Sales Consultant will have great insight into or an interest in the International Schools education sector in their territory and/or the digital learning landscape.
In return, our client offers a fantastic opportunity to gain experience and build on the existing success of a world renowned education organisation, offering remote working amongst a driven and dedicated team.
