Sales Development Representative

Sales Development Representative 12 months Fixed Term Contract Manchester: £25,000 - £26,500 Hybrid Working You're not here to 'smash KPIs' or 'leverage synergies.' You're here to make a difference. And if you're tired of selling widgets and want to sell something that actually matters-education-keep reading. There are loads of company benefits, including a fantastic pension (up to 11.5% employer contributions), a 35 hour working week, 25 days annual leave with additional office closure in December and bank holidays on top, the opportunity to join lots of network groups (LGTBQ, neurodiversity, disAbility, empowering women, wellbeing, ethnic minority and more) an extensive online learning platform, days for volunteering, and an award winning office space with a gym, yoga studio and subsidised café. AQA is an equal opportunity employer committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse workplace where everyone-regardless of religion, ethnicity, gender identity or expression, age, disability, sexual orientation, or background-is valued, respected, and supported to thrive AQA isn't just another awarding body. We're a not-for-profit with a mission: to advance education and help teachers and students realise their potential. That's not marketing fluff-it's why we exist. We've built an innovative EdTech platform that's changing how schools approach assessment. Now we need someone who can help us get it into the hands of the people who need it most. That's where you come in. This isn't a 'smile and dial' sales job. You'll be: Identifying and nurturing leads -not just chasing them. Running online demos that actually help people, not just tick boxes. Collaborating with smart, mission-driven teams across AQA to make sure every customer touchpoint is seamless. Helping schools solve real problems with real solutions. You'll need to be self-motivated, digitally fluent (Teams, Zoom, CRM-you know the drill), and genuinely interested in education. If you've worked in EdTech or assessment before, great. If not, we'll train you but you need to be experienced in sales for this contract. What matters most? That you care about the customer, you're curious, and you know how to build trust-remotely. If you're looking for a role where you can grow, be heard, and actually enjoy what you do-apply now. Or don't. But if you're still reading, you probably should. Upload your most recent CV with a cover letter detailing how your skills and experience match the job description. We will be reviewing applications as they are received and we will close the advert when we find 'the one' so apply sooner rather than later. All applications will be responded to. CRE23
