Our Mission

The single factor which has the highest impact on the prosperity and well-being of humankind is education. Still, technology has not yet delivered on any of its promises for better learning. At Kognity, we have set out to change this. Our Vision is to radically improve learning for the world's school students.

Kognity is an all-in-one curriculum-aligned teaching and learning platform with interactive textbooks, analytics, and assessment support. We are experts at combining pedagogy and technology. We offer comprehensive digital teaching and learning resources for the secondary school programs IBDP, IGCSE, and NGSS.

This is just the beginning of our journey. We are looking for global top talent to help us build a significant impact for the world's young people.

Who You Are & Why We Need You

We are looking for our next Sales Development Representative (SDR) with a proven track record of building rapport with prospects, pinpointing customer needs, and articulating the value of a product or service.

Proactively initiate contact with potential customer schools through email campaigns, cold-calling, LinkedIn outreach, and responding to inbound leads
Educate leads on the value of Kognity and nurture them until they are qualified and ready to talk with an Account Executive
Schedule meetings and introduce leads to their new point of contact
Support the Sales team with pre-conference outreach (calls and email)
Work closely with Marketing and follow up with prospects on marketing campaigns
Persistent drive to call and email schools each day
Maintain detailed documentation of leads and contribute to improving data accuracy in Salesforce CRM

You might be a good fit if you have...

Experienced with (and excited to do) a high volume of cold calling
Proven track record of building rapport with prospects, pinpointing customer needs, and articulating the value of a product/service
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Excellent organisational skills to handle a large volume of contacts, along with coordination across the sales team

We are transparent - radically transparent with opinions and feedback, and we share information widely.
We take care of ourselves and each other - work hard and passionately, but also prioritize our own well-being and that of our colleagues.
