About

📍 Madrid, Spain (preferred) or Remote (EU/UK) | 💶 €38–45k base + uncapped commission (€20–120k+ realistic upside) | Equity in a high-growth start-up

Our client is an early-stage, AI-powered EdTech start-up on a mission to fix one of education’s biggest global challenges: maths outcomes. Their platform acts like a private tutor for students and a teaching assistant for teachers – already trusted by leading international schools in Europe and backed by recent funding.

They’re now looking for their first dedicated sales hire. This is a chance to join at ground level, build the sales playbook, and shape the company’s growth trajectory across the UK and Europe.

• Founding hire impact: Help design the sales function from scratch – your work directly shapes company strategy.
• Fast career growth: As the company scales, early hires will be first in line for leadership roles such as Head of Sales or Country Director.
• Real ownership: Competitive startup package with equity options – share directly in the company’s success.
• Mission-driven: Be part of a team dedicated to transforming how students learn and teachers teach maths.

• Drive outbound sales with UK schools, British international schools, and multi-academy trusts.
• Own the sales cycle end-to-end: prospecting → pitching → closing → onboarding.
• Build relationships with school leaders and decision-makers.
• Represent the business at UK & international EdTech conferences.
• Work directly with the founders to shape product and go-to-market strategy.

Requirements

• 1–3+ years’ experience in sales (SaaS, EdTech, or education solutions preferred).
• Confident working with senior stakeholders in schools or education groups.
• Entrepreneurial mindset – self-starter who thrives in an early-stage, fast-moving environment.
• Spanish/English bilingual a plus, but not essential for strong UK-based candidates.
• Above all, motivated by impact and excited to grow with a high-potential start-up.

Benefits

• €38–45k base salary + uncapped commission (€20–120k+ bonus for strong performers).
• Equity options in a rapidly scaling start-up.
• Remote-friendly culture (Spain preferred; exceptional EU/UK candidates considered).
• Opportunities to travel and represent the business at global EdTech events.
• The chance to accelerate your career while building something meaningful.

Apply today via EQL EdTech and become our client’s first sales hire – helping them transform the future of maths education.
