The Role

We're hiring a Sales & Marketing Associate to help us grow on both sides of the business, bringing more students into our accelerator programs, and building out our internship vertical.

  • Create different channels to increase awareness

What We are Looking For

  • 1–2 years of experience in sales and business development,
  • Comfortable making outbound calls and holding conversations with parents, schools, and companies
  • Strong written and spoken communication- you can represent StarterSky's voice credibly to a principal, parent and a 16 year old

What You'll Get
