Job description

Transition from Education Sales into a Full-Cycle BDR role at Archer

Are you selling education, courses, or EdTech and ready for true deal ownership?

If you have experience pitching degree programs, corporate training, courseware, or EdTech solutions, you already know how to build trust, navigate complex decision-makers, and communicate long-term value.

At Archer, we want you to take those core consultative sales skills and step into a full-cycle Business Development role where you own the client relationship from start to finish.

What You Will Gain

• End-to-End Deal Ownership: Run the full sales cycle yourself – prospect, pitch, close, and retain your own clients without passing off leads.
• Faster Earning Growth: Trade capped course/education sales targets for uncapped, monthly commission (upfront & trailing) and a clear path to €100k+ in under 2.5 years.
• Total Transparency: Get zero mystery metrics, an exact promotion matrix, and full visibility on how your performance drives your payout.
• C-Suite Access: Level up from course applicants or academic departments to pitching and negotiating directly with business leaders and senior hiring managers.

What We Are Looking For

• Background: 1+ years in Education Sales, Course/Program Admissions Sales, EdTech BDR/SDR roles, or B2B Outbound Sales (minimum 2 years overall professional experience).
• Skillset: Strong consultative phone presence, experience handling objection-heavy or multi-stakeholder sales, and a track record of hitting targets.
• Mindset: High performance, competitive drive, and an eagerness to master full-cycle closing.
• Location & Eligibility: Dublin-based (ability to work on-site M-F in our Dublin office) with an EU Passport, UK Passport, or Stamp 4 Visa.

Compensation & Rewards

• Starting Base & Bonus: €38,000; grows with your progression
• Commission: Uncapped, paid monthly (Upfront & Trailing)
• Growth: Milestone-based promotion structure with 0 guesswork.
