Job description

The Mouseion holds a small, talent-dense team building AI powered software for teaching and learning. Our first product is Odea, so institutions can learn and teach with AI on terms they can stand behind. We particularly like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, and careful. We enjoy spirited debate, unusual ideas, and eccentric solutions.

About the role

As a Sales Executive you own the full cycle, from first conversation to close, with institutions that already teach on real software and expect it to hold up.

You will drive revenue by building relationships with universities and helping them realize the full potential of Odea for teaching and learning. You will cover the spectrum from fast-moving faculties to more complex institutional deals, adapting the playbook to each.

You will work closely with educators, learning support, and IT to understand how courses actually run, show how Odea changes that work, and guide evaluation, rollout, and expansion. The role combines fluency in the product with sales expertise.

What you’ll do

• Win new business and drive revenue for Mouseion. Find your way to the right people at prospective institutions, educate them about responsible AI in teaching, and help them succeed. You own the full sales cycle, from first call to close.
• Become a trusted product expert; guide prospects through trials, evaluations, and rollouts.
• Build and manage a healthy pipeline, meeting and exceeding quarterly targets.
• Lead multi-threaded sales cycles across Education, IT, Security, Procurement, and Legal.
• Develop executive relationships and day-to-day champions within each account.
• Quantify value with clear cases tied to teaching quality, staff time, and adoption.
• Design and execute sales strategies; analyze the market and translate plans into targeted activity.
• Be the voice of the customer and influence the roadmap with actionable feedback.
• Continuously refine the sales methodology by incorporating learnings into playbooks, templates, and practice.

You may be a fit if

• You have 3+ years of closing experience in tech sales, ideally selling to education, technical SaaS, or emerging technologies.
• You have a consistent track record of landing new logos, exceeding quota, and managing a high volume of deals.
• You are a hunter: you build pipeline from scratch through outbound prospecting, creative sourcing, and follow-up, rather than relying on inbound demand.
• You are comfortable navigating complex cycles and selling to technical and academic stakeholders, from course coordinators to CIOs.
• You bring an analytical approach to customer needs, with tactical follow-through that advances opportunities.
• You have a knack for bringing order to chaos and a genuine roll-up-your-sleeves mentality.
• You are an excellent communicator who can present confidently and build trust across an institution.
• You care about higher education, and about software that classes can actually run on.
