**Performance-Driven Decision-Making**

Monitor your performance using enrollment metrics and productivity data. Use insights to improve your approach and increase conversion rates while maintaining a high level of student satisfaction.

**Collaboration & Handover**

Work closely with the Admissions Operations and Student Services teams to ensure seamless onboarding and a smooth post-enrollment experience for every student.

**What We’re Looking For**

1-3 years of experience in academic counseling, education sales, ed-tech, admissions, or a similar high-touch B2C environment

Strong communication skills — you can listen well, articulate clearly, and build trust easily

Empathy and patience in dealing with first-generation learners from diverse cultural and socio-economic backgrounds

A sharp, analytical mindset with the ability to treat your pipeline as a business — track performance, meet revenue targets, and iterate for better outcomes

High sense of ownership, emotional intelligence, and adaptability to work in a fast-paced startup culture

Prior experience in education sales or international student counseling is a big plus

**What You’ll Gain**

A high-impact role where your work directly changes lives

A chance to be part of a fast-scaling, purpose-led startup

Immense personal and professional growth as you work across sales, counseling, and operations

A team culture that rewards ownership, hustle, and long-term thinking
