What Your Week Looks Like
• Drive admission teams, daily. Run structured morning review calls with school admission counsellors — track enquiries, walk-ins and conversions, coach them on follow-ups, and keep every funnel moving online on our trackers.
• Present to colleges. Deliver engaging demos of Ignify Careers to college leadership and placement teams — and onboard colleges, students and career coaches onto the platform.
• Sell and support preschool launches. Pitch the Ignify Pre School model to aspiring founders, walk them from enquiry to signing, then coordinate their set-up — and train pre-primary teachers on the Nurture360™ curriculum.
• Own the operations. Keep school set-up and preschool projects on milestones, coordinate vendor onboarding, maintain daily reports, and make sure every client’s first 90 days are excellent.
Who You Are
• A teaching background is essential — you understand classrooms and can confidently train pre-primary teachers.
• Experience as an admission counsellor, academic coordinator or education sales professional is a strong advantage.
• Minimum 2 years of relevant experience; comfortable with sales targets alongside delivery quality.
• An energetic communicator — on calls, in demos and in person; fluent English and Hindi (Marathi a plus).
• Organised and self-driven; able to run multiple projects without being chased.
• Based in Mumbai and willing to travel locally, with occasional outstation trips.

• A clear growth path: fixed salary + performance incentives + travel allowance — and ESOP ownership after 2 years, rare at this stage of your career.
• Genuine variety: no two days are the same — admissions one morning, a college demo the next, a preschool launch the week after.
• Shape how schools, colleges and education founders launch and grow across India.
