• Academic counselling.

• University program sales.

We’re looking for a closer/sales expert. You’ll be taking around 5 to 6 thirty-minute calls each workday with potential clients, to help them make the decision of whether to enroll in our product (a coaching program that helps them land a job in management consulting). All calls are inbound. This job is 100% remote. Work hours are flexible and & you can build your schedule how you want. You have autonomy. The role is based on quick conversations, where you get to give your insights and help people make the right choice. It will be a commission heavy role (less base, more commissions).
