Job description

As a Business Development Associate, you are the first point of contact for ambitious students and parents. Your role is not "selling," but diagnosing their profile, understanding their dreams, and demonstrating how our technology and expertise can bridge the gap between their current profile and a top-tier global admission.

Key Responsibilities

• Identify and engage with high-potential students, converting cold interest into warm relationships.
• Conduct high-level consultations to understand students' academic backgrounds and career goals.
• Use data and logic to explain the value proposition and demonstrate the benefits of Ambitio's AI-driven approach compared with traditional consultancy.
• Apply critical thinking to identify student-specific challenges, such as low GRE scores, weak SOPs, or gap years, and offer solutions aligned with Ambitio's offerings.
• Drive the end-to-end sales cycle from lead generation to enrollment through persistent follow-ups and effective conversion.

Why Ambitio?

• Fast-Track Growth: Join a high-growth startup where your impact is immediate.
• Intellectual Environment: Work in a culture that values logic, data, and"student-first" ethics over aggressive sales tactics.
• Competitive Rewards: Good base salary with uncapped incentives tied to your performance.
