About Us

- Coordinate with the onboarding team to ensure smooth go-live for each signed school
- Maintain accurate pipeline and visit records, and share regular updates with the founder/BDM
- Represent SchoolSetu at local school events, expos, or principal meets as opportunities arise
- Consistently work toward the monthly onboarding target to remain eligible for the allowance
