About the Role

We are looking for an experienced and result-oriented Sales Professional for our Educational Institute / Competitive Coaching Institute client.

This is primarily a Sales & Admission Conversion role, not just a customer support or general counselling position.

The selected candidate will be responsible for handling prospective student leads, counselling students and parents, managing follow-ups, closing admissions, and achieving assigned monthly sales and revenue targets.

We are specifically looking for candidates who have strong sales experience and the ability to convert leads into confirmed admissions.

• Counsel prospective students and parents with a clear focus on admission conversion.
• Follow up with interested leads and maintain a proper sales pipeline.
• Handle objections, queries, and negotiations effectively.
• Convert qualified leads into confirmed student admissions.
• Take complete ownership of the sales process, from the first call to final admission.
• Achieve assigned monthly admission and revenue targets.
• Maintain daily calling reports, follow-up records, and sales performance updates.

Mandatory Requirements

• Strong Sales & Closing Skills: Sales handling and lead conversion are the highest priorities for this position.
• Bengali Communication: Must be fluent and confident in speaking Bengali.
• Proven Sales Experience: Candidates with experience in sales, lead conversion, admission sales, or education sales will be preferred.
• Target-Oriented: Must be comfortable working with monthly sales and revenue targets.

• Monthly performance will be evaluated based on lead conversion, confirmed admissions, and revenue generation.

Who Should Apply?

We are looking for genuine sales professionals and sales closers who can independently handle leads, convince prospective students and parents, close admissions, and deliver measurable sales results.

Candidates looking only for general counselling, customer support, or non-target-based roles are not the right fit for this position.
