Education partnerships manager

About the Role

Education Partnerships Managers bring new school districts and education partners to Vanteo’s J-1 international teacher programs. You’ll be one of about four managers on a regional team, working closely with your Regional Sales Leader to grow placements across your territory’s priority states. You will prospect, build relationships, and close agreements.

Key Responsibilities

• Prospect and build a pipeline of new school districts and education partners in your assigned states, focusing on priority districts identified through our market analysis.
• Run the full partnership cycle: discovery, needs assessment, presentations, proposals, and closing.
• Recommend the right brand and program for each district’s structure.
• Maintain accurate pipeline, activity, and forecast data in HubSpot, and take part in weekly pipeline reviews with your Regional Sales Leader.
• Work with Revenue Generation on leads, campaigns, and events, and with Sales Operations on reporting and territory planning.
• Work with the program team to ensure a smooth handoff from agreement to teacher placement.
• Attend conferences, district events, and education job fairs in your territory.
• Meet or exceed annual targets for new positions opened and revenue.

Qualifications

• 3+ years in B2B sales, business development, or partnerships, ideally with K–12 schools, districts, or public-sector organizations.
• Track record of meeting targets in a long-cycle, relationship-based sale.
• Strong communication, presentation, and follow-up skills.
• Comfortable with a CRM (HubSpot preferred).
• Experience in education, international programs, or staffing is a plus.
• Willingness to travel.
