The Role

This opportunity will suit someone who is a proactive, self-starter with an entrepreneurial mindset who thrives on challenge and has a track record of delivering excellent results. You must be driven, ambitious and be able to communicate well.

Reporting to the Director of Strategic Development, you will be supporting the team in a number of ways, including but not limited to:

  • Partnering with UK schools (and potentially international schools in future) in order to sell our offline courses and after-school clubs to school parents
  • Selling our online ‘Talking Heads’ model to UK schools (and potentially international schools in future)
  • Managing those accounts once sold to maximise revenue
  • Regularly upgrading our sales collateral
  • Developing and driving a strong sales culture throughout the organisation.

Traits We're Looking For

  • Huge energy and ambition

  • Fluent English
  • Educational credibility
  • Good attention to detail and well organised
  • A good team player

The Nitty Gritty

Our offices are on Stormont Road, Battersea, SW11 5EN but, at the moment, we’re spending 2 days/week working from the office and 3 days/week working from home.

Role Models is only 7 years old so the team is relatively small but well-formed and great fun! We have recently closed a £915k funding round with a view to aggressive expansion both online and offline over the next few years, so there is lots of work and you will need to be up for a challenge.

We have 9 full-time employees and 4 outsourced part-time employees. As a result, you would have the opportunity to make a huge difference to the trajectory of this growing business and would be given significant responsibility.

As we are a small and exciting growth business, we pride ourselves on providing a seamless service to our clients. This will on occasion result in a need to communicate at weekends, whether with clients or other members of the team.

We’re also very proud to have been ranked in the ‘top 100 organisations to escape to’ in both 2019 and 2020!
