What will your goals be?
- Become quickly recognised by your prospects and customers as a trusted advisor and consultant who can help them reach their business goals through strategic investments in language learning programmes
- Be recognised and celebrated by our global organisation for delivering your commitments and exceed expectations in terms of sales
How will we help you succeed? To achieve these ambitious goals, you will:
- Draw on the best product stack available on the market. We offer premium cutting-edge educational products that you can sell with confidence, including online and (virtual) face-to-face programmes
- Have a well-designed database of big and high potential companies and leads to pursue so you can map and identify new business opportunities in Spain.
- Proactively collaborate with other internal stakeholders to help you drive the sales process forward through high levels of complexity – working closely with your local colleagues in Marketing, Business Development, and Customer Success, and also with your remote colleagues on other teams elsewhere in Europe and across Latin America, the US, the Middle East, and Asia
Who will succeed in this role?
We are looking for a person with 2+ years of successful B2B solutions selling experience, who speaks Spanish and English fluently. If you have experience working with education products and/or HR stakeholders, all the better. But most importantly, we are seeking a hungry, driven, globally oriented salesperson who wants to build a career at a rapidly growing and extremely innovative education and travel company.
More specifically, you should be able to:
- Manage complex end-to-end B2B sales processes independently, using a consultative approach and executing needs analyses, value proposition definitions and negotiations with CXO level stakeholders.
- Understand the HR/L&D customer market and bring to bear that knowledge in conversations with large local and international companies.

In this role, you will learn about trends in business all around the world, while at the same time continuing to build your network and expertise in Spain.
