EdTech Growth Representative – Sales, Lead Generation

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in South Africa.

📋 Description

• AI-Enhanced Content Generation: Create top-notch, AI-assisted content that attracts organic traffic. You will serve as a high-volume prompt engineer, generating, verifying, and refining up to 20 articles daily using platforms such as Claude.

• AEO & SEO Optimization: Ensure that the content is tailored not only for Google (SEO) but also for AI Engines (AEO) to effectively position our client in front of the appropriate audience.

• Outbound Sales Initiatives: Execute cold outreach campaigns via email, LinkedIn, and other channels to identify and engage potential clients within the education sector.

• Lead Pipeline Management: Assess inbound and outbound leads, collect relevant information, and pass on sales-ready opportunities to senior team members.

• Adaptability & Scalability: Be prepared to take on additional tasks as needed. This is a startup, and the responsibilities outlined above may expand.
