Job description

The Childcare Sales Manager owns the Books Are Fun childcare division end to end. This is a builder role in a division that is growing fast, has a proven program, and has real runway ahead of it.

Book Blast is a literacy program that gets kids excited about books and reading. The childcare division brings that same program to childcare centers and early childhood settings. It operates differently than the schoolwide business. The buyer is different, the program cadence is different, and the sales motion requires dedicated ownership to reach its potential.

The Childcare Sales Manager leads a team of Childcare Specialists who own the full client lifecycle: from presentations through program fulfillment and into renewals. This role is responsible for developing those specialists, partnering with a dedicated BDR team on prospecting and meeting generation, and building the processes and standards that turn a strong division into a scalable one.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead, coach, and develop a team of Childcare Specialists who manage new business acquisition, program fulfillment, and renewals for their accounts.

Duties

• Manage weekly team rhythms including standups, pipeline reviews, and one-on-ones.
• Audit presentation and fulfillment quality across the specialist team and identify coaching opportunities.
• Maintain accurate CRM documentation standards and hold the team accountable to pipeline discipline.
• Track territory coverage, identify gaps, and deploy specialist resources intentionally.
• Collaborate with Marketing, Operations, and the broader Sales organization on shared priorities.
• Perform other related duties as required to grow and professionalize the childcare division.
