Job description

At Element451, we’re transforming how colleges and universities attract, engage, and enroll students with the industry's first all-in-one CRM and Admissions Marketing Platform (AMP)—an AI-powered, data-driven solution built for modern higher education.

As a University Partnership Manager, you’ll be at the forefront of this transformation, helping institutions modernize their recruitment and marketing efforts with cutting-edge automation, behavioral analytics, and seamless API integrations. If you thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth SaaS environment, have a proven track record of exceeding quota, and love consultative selling, this is your opportunity to make a difference.

You’ll own the full sales cycle, from prospecting to closing, working with forward-thinking colleges eager to enhance their enrollment strategies. Join a fast-growing, mission-driven company where you’ll have the opportunity to close high-impact deals and help universities elevate their enrollment strategies.

What you'll do: 

  • Research and identify new lead opportunities.
  • Execute consultative solution selling, positioning Element451’s value effectively.
  • Own the full sales cycle, from prospecting to contract execution.
  • Oversee and optimize the buyer journey, ensuring a seamless process.
  • Prepare and deliver pitches and platform demos tailored to prospects’ needs.
  • Manage and track deals within HubSpot CRM.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with marketing and customer success teams.
  • Handle multiple opportunities across various pipeline stages.

What you'll bring: 

  • 5+ years of Enterprise SaaS sales experience, preferably in direct or outside B2B sales; higher education experience is a plus.
  • Proven track record of consistent quota attainment and business development success.
  • Strong ability to prospect and generate pipeline opportunities.
  • Expertise in full-cycle sales processes, from initial engagement to close.
  • A consultative, value-driven sales approach that aligns with client needs.
  • Ability to demonstrate SaaS technology effectively for prospects.
  • Experience managing a full-funnel pipeline and navigating deal strategies.
  • CRM proficiency (HubSpot, Salesforce, MarTech, or similar).
  • Excellent negotiation, presentation, and communication skills.
  • Bachelor's degree required.

Perks

  • Competitive salary & benefits (Medical, Dental, Vision, Disability & More)
  • 401k plan with 4% employer match available after 3 months of employment
  • Work from home anywhere in the US
  • Paid parental leave
  • Time to Relax - 10 company holidays and 20 days of paid time off
