**How youll spend your time**

**School visits and relationship building**

The majority of your time will be spent on the road, visiting schools and districts. Mostly these schools will be in metro based Sacramento, but youll occasionally find yourself making trips to other parts of the West coast and potentially other places in the US.

These school and district visits mostly occur as a school moves through or is considering a trial/pilot of Stile. To begin with, youll visit schools and districts for scheduled introductory conversations that you have set up with science department chairs, science curriculum specialists or other school or district leaders. From there, youll run Professional Development for the science department, ensuring theyre confident using Stile in class. You might drop into a science classroom with students using Stile and find yourself teaching a class to model best practice teaching with Stile and through any of these visits, youre looking to form strong relationships with teachers and leadership.

Ask anyone in our sales team; this is the best part of this role. Stile, our resources and our service, has an incredible reputation, and its such a fantastic opportunity to use your passion and expertise in a way that truly improves the quality of science teaching and learning.

**Attending/hosting community events**

Building relationships with those in the local STEM community is key to being successful in this role. For this reason, when we can again, youll be in regular attendance of local events and conferences. Once you have established a network, youll even find yourself hosting events to unite leaders within the community to share ideas.

**Professional Development**

Were life-long learners at Stile, so were always looking to improve our practice. Youll frequently find yourself reading up on the latest negotiation strategies, or learning about the latest trends in education technology. You can also expect to spend time peer-reviewing work with your colleagues, ensuring were always delivering the highest quality service possible. When travel allows, the US team will come together in person for training and planning.

**Booking meetings and administrative work**

If you dont have sales experience, this might be the daunting bit. There will be revenue targets and other goals, which to meet, you'll need to be proactive. This said, we will be sure to teach you everything you need to know.

You have the confidence to follow up on in-bound leads from our marketing and also to reach out to district and school leaders and teachers yourself via email or phone to see if theyre open to meeting with you for an introductory meeting. Youll also be supported by your manager to design individualized outreach to engage schools in your area.

Once youre working with a school, facilitating a trial is great fun. Most of this process sits in the school visits category, but theres additional responsibilities like recording notes in Salesforce, contacting teachers to check if they would like further support or chasing up signed subscription agreements.

**A bit more about you**

* Whilst its not a deal-breaker, youre a current or former middle or high school science teacher with at least 3 years classroom teaching experience and/or worked closely in educational sales or account management with a K-12 science digital resource.

* Youre knowledgeable about science education and youre across the latest trends in education technology, pedagogy and NGSS. Importantly, you share our passion for improving science education in the US, and genuinely want to help ensure our young people leave school ready to tackle tomorrows problems.

* You are likeable and empathetic. A strong communicator that can build positive relationships and really put yourself in someone elses shoes; understanding their problems and working to help fix them.

* Youre eager to learn. Super eager. You soak up feedback, incorporate it, and are constantly d
