The role:
This position is hugely varied as you will be selling their products and services to app developers. They believe the potential that educational apps have to completely change the way children learn is limitless, but that there needs to be more effective ways for teachers, parents and children find and use these apps.

- Understanding of the educational sector, particularly EdTech, is a plus.
- A university degree (ideally in Marketing or Business-related subject) is preferable, but not essential.
The benefits:
- Starting salary: GBP30-35,000 (dependent upon experience).
- Bonus structure for hitting pre-agreed sales targets (OTE: GBP40-45,000).
- You will be part of a small founding team and your performance has a direct impact on the company's performance - you will not be just a number.
- Upon reaching agreed targets, you will have the opportunity to build and manage your own sales team.
