Sales Manager (School sales) - Bangalore

Compensation: ₹6L – ₹10L

Why This Role Matters: At shikshakAI, we’re reshaping how schools access world-class educational solutions. Every new partnership you bring on board doesn’t just add revenue — it unlocks impact for thousands of students and educators. This is not a “sales job.” This is a mission-driven growth role, with the opportunity to create meaningful change in education at scale.

What You will Own:

• You are the frontline founder for our school partnerships. You build doors where they don’t exist.
• Generate and close high-quality leads — turning conversations with principals and school owners into long-term, trust-based partnerships.
• Design and refine a predictable sales system that scales revenue consistently.
• Be obsessed with customer needs: deeply understand the challenges schools face and position our solutions as their unfair advantage.
• Collaborate with product, marketing, and ops to make sure every partner school doesn’t just join — they succeed.
• Track what matters: not just numbers, but signals that prove we’re creating enduring value.

Who We are Looking For: This role is not for someone who wants to just “do sales.” It’s for someone who:

• Has 2–4 years in B2B sales (ideally in education, EdTech, Only Bangalore profile Kannada is mandatory), and has crushed ambitious targets.
• Thrives in high-ownership, startup-style environments — you’ll build and execute, not wait for processes.
• Understands the education landscape and how decisions actually get made.
• Can pitch with clarity, negotiate with conviction, and close with empathy.
• Operates with a founder mindset: when you see inefficiency, you fix it; when you see opportunity, you grab it.
• Is fluent with CRM and reporting — but also comfortable hacking together insights and experiments without waiting for “perfect tools.”

What You will Get:

• A front-row seat in building one of the most impactful education ventures of our time.
• A comp package that rewards performance, not politics.
• Direct mentorship from founders and senior leaders.
• A chance to grow into Head of Sales / Country Manager roles as we scale.

If you want a safe, comfortable role, this isn’t it. If you want to leave your mark on the education system, let’s talk.
