EdTech SaaS Enterprise Sales Consultant
Apply for this roleAbout StartNew Technologies
StartNew Technologies is developing START Canada, an institutional SaaS business solution designed to help higher-education institutions strengthen career readiness, student engagement, and drive stronger employment outcomes.
The Opportunity
We are looking for an experienced EdTech SaaS Platform Enterprise Sales Executive to help expand START Canada across colleges, institutes, and universities in Canada and the United States.
This is an early-stage growth opportunity for an entrepreneurial sales professional who understands the higher-education sector and has a proven ability to sell SaaS or enterprise technology solutions.
The primary focus will initially be on building your own pipeline, developing institutional relationships, and selling and closing annual enterprise licenses.
As the relationship develops, the role may expand to include product demonstrations, proposals, negotiations, and broader strategic business development activities.
What You'll Do
- Develop your own pipeline of higher-education prospects.
- Build relationships with institutional decision-makers.
- Introduce START Canada as an institutional SaaS business solution focused on employment outcomes.
- Manage opportunities from initial outreach through closing.
- Sell annual enterprise licenses to colleges, institutes, and universities.
- Develop opportunities across Canada and the United States.
- Help establish START Canada's institutional sales presence during an early stage of growth.
What We're Looking For
- Proven success in enterprise or B2B sales.
- Strong experience within the education or higher-education sector.
- Direct experience selling SaaS or enterprise technology solutions is strongly preferred.
- An existing executive-level network within the education sector is strongly preferred.
- Strong prospecting, relationship-building, and closing ability.
- Exceptional communication skills.
- Entrepreneurial, self-driven, and comfortable working independently.
- Persistent and results-oriented while maintaining a consultative, relationship-focused sales approach.
Formal education credentials are less important to us than demonstrated sales ability, industry experience, and the ability to build trusted relationships.
Why Join Us
START Canada represents an opportunity to participate in the early growth of a business solution addressing one of the most important priorities facing higher-education institutions globally: improving student career readiness and employment outcomes.
The role offers:
- High commission-based earning potential.
- Commission opportunities on both new institutional business and future renewals.
- A fully remote working environment.
- A sales territory spanning Canada and the United States.
- The opportunity to help shape START Canada's institutional sales growth.
- Potential for the relationship to evolve into a broader strategic partnership opportunity based on performance, alignment, and mutual fit.
The role is fully remote initially. Travel of up to approximately 25% may become part of the opportunity as the business expands.
This is an independent contractor opportunity. Individuals representing other non-competing products or organizations are welcome to apply.
