**Realities of the Role**

***

Working in a remote sales role and with education partners, some days might feel monotonous while others will be very high energy. The process of getting schools to take on a new system can be a challenging but a hugely rewarding process. Buy-in has to come from stakeholders. Oftentimes, you will need to be managing multiple schools in various stages of their sales pipeline and their growth in using our client’s product in their school.

Working for our client is exciting and they are treading new territory in the education technology industry. As a sales agent, you will have the opportunity to contribute significantly to the company’s growth during this pivotal time.

**What will help you to find success in this role**:
***
- Influential and outgoing personality
- A positive and persistent attitude is a must in a sales process that can sometimes feel slow-going.
- Resilience; you aren’t beaten down when faced with rejection or challenge.
- Attention to detail and a strong foundation of the basics. E.g. Your meetings are scheduled and executed strategically, your CRM is updated, and travel time is planned to support your weekly/monthly priorities
- A consultative sales and customer service mindset; you have a strong desire to draw out feedback and can present creative ways of solving problems schools face, especially post-launch

**Qualifications**:

- Tertiary education preferable
- Valid matriculation certification
