Join Our Mission: Founding Sales Executive Opportunity at a Revolutionary AI EdTech Startup

Are you passionate about transforming maths education and eager to build something impactful from the ground up? Our client, a dynamic AI-powered EdTech startup, is seeking a driven and entrepreneurial Founding Sales Executive to join their team. This is your chance to be a key player in revolutionizing how students learn and teachers teach maths.

About the Company

Our client is not just another EdTech company; they’re on a mission to address a critical global challenge in maths education. Their innovative platform acts as a personalized tutor for students and a powerful teaching assistant for educators, already gaining traction with leading international schools across Europe. Backed by recent funding, they are poised for rapid growth and impact.

Your Role: Shaping the Future of Maths Education Sales

As the Founding Sales Executive, you will be instrumental in building the sales function from scratch. Your responsibilities will include:

• Driving outbound sales efforts targeting UK schools, British international schools, and multi-academy trusts.
• Owning the entire sales cycle: from prospecting and pitching to closing deals and onboarding new clients.
• Building strong relationships with school leaders and key decision-makers.
• Representing the company at prominent UK and international EdTech conferences.
• Collaborating directly with the founders to refine product strategy and go-to-market approaches.

What We’re Looking For: Your Skills and Experience

We are seeking a candidate with:

• 1-3+ years of experience in a sales role (ideally within SaaS, EdTech, or education solutions).
• Proven ability to engage and build rapport with senior stakeholders in schools and education organizations.
• An entrepreneurial spirit and a proactive approach to problem-solving in a fast-paced startup environment.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills.
• Bonus points for Spanish/English bilingualism, but not essential for exceptional UK-based candidates.

Most importantly, you should be driven by a desire to make a real difference in education and excited to grow with a high-potential AI EdTech startup.

Why Join Us?

This is more than just a job; it’s an opportunity to:

• Make a Founding Impact: Directly influence the company’s sales strategy and shape its future success.
• Experience Rapid Career Growth: Be first in line for leadership roles as the company scales, such as Head of Sales or Country Director.
• Gain Real Ownership: Receive a competitive startup package with equity options, allowing you to share directly in the company’s success.
• Be Part of a Mission-Driven Team: Contribute to transforming how students learn and teachers teach maths, making a lasting impact on the world.

The Perks

In return for your passion and dedication, you’ll receive:

• A competitive base salary of €38,000 – €45,000, plus uncapped commission with a realistic earning potential of €20,000 – €120,000+ for high performers.
• Equity options in a rapidly scaling EdTech startup.
• A remote-friendly culture (Madrid, Spain preferred, but exceptional EU/UK candidates will be considered).
• Opportunities to travel and represent the company at global EdTech events.
• The chance to accelerate your career while building something truly meaningful in education.
