As a visionary leader of our AI-enabled educational products, including our AI-driven Learning Management Software (LMS) and parent involvement app, you'll be at the forefront of this educational revolution.

This is not your typical leadership role. We're seeking an experienced, senior-level evangelist and visionary who can drive substantial user adoption and shape the future of learning on a global scale.

You'll leverage generative AI to boost productivity and customer engagement while also leading and developing our sales organization.

What sets this role apart is the laser focus on our specialized products in the US education space. Your mission will be to drive user adoption in a crowded sector, directly impacting the way students engage with academic content and how parents participate in their children's education.

Your proven experience in selling EdTech products to US school districts and departments of education is crucial to your success.

Imagine having the power to transform education for millions of students, teachers, and parents across the US. If you're ready to champion this cause, build a strong personal brand, and thrive in a dynamic environment we want you on our team.

Together, let's leverage the power of AI to revolutionize learning!

What you will be doing

  • Developing and implementing a strategic sales plan targeting US education providers.
  • Establishing and managing strategic partnerships with key educational institutions.
  • Driving initiatives to increase user adoption and customer satisfaction.
  • Building and maintaining a personal brand through public speaking, publishing, and thought leadership in the education and AI sectors.
  • Leading and developing the sales organization to achieve growth targets.

What you will NOT be doing

  • Focusing solely on internal operations and team management.
  • Managing traditional school operations or curriculum development.
  • Engaging in repetitive cold calling or high-pressure sales tactics.
  • Taking on a purely advisory role without direct involvement in sales leadership.

Key Responsibilities

Lead the strategic development and execution of initiatives to drive user adoption and sales of AI-enabled educational products, including LMS, PI, and other solutions, in the US education sector.

Candidate Requirements

  • Proven track record of driving sales growth and market penetration in the US education sector, including building or selling an EdTech product with at least $10M in revenue.
  • Established relationships with decision-makers in US school districts and state education departments.
  • Experience using generative AI tools to achieve quantifiable productivity or product improvements.
  • Ability to grow and engage a social media following.
