$65,000 - $95,000 a year

Type: Full-time

Compensation: $65,000 - $95,000 USD OTE - Dependent on experience

Work: Remote - However you must be based in Philadelphia, PA as you will be travelling for school visits/conferences

About us:

At Zen, we’re changing how schools find the staff needed for kids to thrive. There is a severe shortage of teachers and the support staff needed to support all children, accelerated by the pandemic. Millions of students experience understaffed classrooms and specialist programs. Schools looking to fill these roles with traditional agencies spend billions of dollars in high agency markups, which further hampers budgets and leads to more problems down the line.

That’s why we’ve developed an alternative solution. Our online platform provides schools instant access to hundreds of fully vetted teachers and support staff. Since our inception in 2017, we've saved schools over $30 million globally, reinvesting that money back into school budgets and increasing teachers’ pay.

The opportunity:

Join an ed-tech startup that's reshaping education. This is your chance to be at the forefront of change, where innovation meets impact. We're not just selling a product – we're transforming the way schools operate, filling classrooms with the staff needed for kids to thrive and saving the education system millions of dollars along the way.

We’re also growing at a rapid pace. This type of growth allows you to grow your impact and your career, while making a tangible difference in the education sector.

We're looking for enthusiastic, mission-driven people who fit our values and are passionate about what we do. You’re encouraged to apply even if your experience doesn't exactly match the job description, some of Zen’s highest performing sales people started their career in sales as a Business Development Rep!

What you'll be doing:

  • Selling Zen’s service offerings to charter and district leaders in your assigned territory
  • Owning the full cycle sales process: from outbound calling, to pipeline generation, to demo delivery, to closing deals
  • Collaborating with our School Success team to onboard new charter schools and school districts
  • Collaborate with the school success, operations, and technology teams to continuously improve our ability to deliver value to schools
  • Opportunities to travel to US states for conferences, events and school meetings
  • Embracing the dynamic nature of startup life, where no two weeks are the same, and a willingness to dive in and get the job done is essential.

Who we are looking for:

  • You have a strong desire to break into a sales career within the tech space.
  • You bring enthusiasm and an eagerness to learn. We'll provide all the training and tools you need to succeed.
  • A passionate and motivated team player who thrives in a collaborative environment; your contributions are valued.
  • You have a growth mindset and are dedicated to growing your skills as a professional.
  • Experience in education as either an educator or selling to K-12 stakeholders is a huge plus.

What’s in it for you?

  • Equity compensation
  • Role includes bonus
  • 18 Paid Vacation Days and 10 Paid Company Holidays
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) retirement plan with no match
  • Sick leave
  • Paid biweekly

Ready to Apply

We welcome applicants with diverse backgrounds, and different experiences and perspectives - just like the staff who teach through Zen and the children at the schools we work with. We believe in hiring the best people from the widest pool and creating an inclusive atmosphere with a culture where people’s voices are heard, and all our team can look forward to coming to work.

We value and respect all differences in all people (seen and unseen). We believe in an environment with equal access to career development opportunities and actively encourage applications from BAME candidates.

If you require any reasonable adjustments during your interview process with us, please do let us know.

Due to the high volume of applications, we regret that we are unable to provide individual feedback on initial submissions.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
