VP Strategic Partnerships
Are you entrepreneurial? Do you enjoy balancing strategy with mission? We are on a mission to help people take the next step in a more fulfilling life and are looking for a relationship oriented sales person to help us and our partners fulfill that mission. If you thrive when able to build deep relationships with strategic partners so everyone succeeds, then we have an exciting opportunity for you!
At Mainstay, we believe one conversation can spark a brighter future. Our Engagement Platform makes it easy for colleges and businesses to start and measure conversations that drive action at scale. From our rigorous research methods to our Behavioral Intelligence framework - everything we do is designed to help people take the next step toward achieving their goals.
Our Strategic Partnerships team sits within our Sales organization and is responsible for identifying, fostering and growing relationships with State Governments at the intersection of education and employment to find mutually beneficial partnerships for growth of learners and our business impact. You will own a territory and be expected to foster new and innovative relationships to grow our strategic reach in EdTech, including long term partnerships with other related EdTech companies.
Ultimately the Strategic Partnerships team’s goal is to capture large audiences to do what we do best in those segments of society. And what we do best is use empathetic technology to drive behavior and ultimately positive outcomes for learners.
We believe in building a culture of growth and that work can be a vehicle for growth. We also recognize that in order for this role to be most successful we suspect that the ideal candidate will have operated in the Higher Ed and/or Ed Tech space in strategic sales roles previously and will bring established relationships, skills and best practices to the table. You've likely been there and done that and are looking to help us in our mission to do it for even more students and even more specifically find additional ways to better serve the underserved student populations in Higher Ed.
