🚀 EdTech Sales Manager | £40-50k + Commission | Start January 2027

Connecting Education is thrilled to be partnering with a fast-growing EdTech compliance software business to find their next Sales Manager to lead a growing commercial team through an exciting phase of growth.

Our client is a genuine leader in the EdTech space, with a product schools love and a business that's scaling fast. This is a brilliant opportunity to step into a role where you'll have real influence over how the team performs and grows.

What you'll be doing:

  • Owning and driving ambitious team sales target – mixture of NB, Xsell & Upsell
  • Coaching and developing a team of 4 sales staff initially
  • Managing pipeline in HubSpot and delivering accurate, reliable forecasting
  • Using Jiminny to support call coaching and performance (experience here is a plus)
  • Leading efforts around recruitment, onboarding and retention
  • Bringing energy, positivity and a can-do mentality to everything you do

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

What we're looking for:

  • Proven experience selling EdTech products at both single school & MAT level
  • Experience coaching or mentoring others to improve performance - this doesn't have to be as a direct people manager
  • Strong CRM skills, ideally HubSpot, with a disciplined approach to pipeline hygiene and forecasting
  • A track record of hitting or exceeding sales targets
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to build trust quickly both internally and with customers
  • Resilience and adaptability, comfortable operating in a fast-growth, evolving environment
  • A genuine passion for developing people and building high-performing teams

What's on offer:

  • £40,000-£50,000 base + monthly bonus
  • Remote-first working, with regular team get-togethers to keep the culture strong
  • A North West-based candidate preferred, but not essential
  • Planned start date: January 2027
  • A rare chance to shape a sales team in a business on a genuine upward trajectory

If you're a natural coach and motivator who thrives on developing people as much as hitting numbers, we'd love to hear from you.
