Marketing Executive — Institutional Partnerships

Skill Grimoire Private Limited · Remote, anywhere in India · Full time · Multiple positions

About us

Skill Grimoire is an AI-integrated skill development company based in Bengaluru. We partner with schools and colleges to teach students practical, job-relevant skills alongside their regular syllabus - 100 skills across six levels, from Class 10 to postgraduate.

We are early. The curriculum is built; the partnerships are not. That is the job.

The role

- You will open and close institutional partnerships. Practically, that means:

Identifying schools and colleges in your region worth approaching
- Reaching decision-makers - principals, directors, management committees

Presenting our programme, online or in person at their campus
- Handling objections, negotiating terms, and closing the partnership
- Staying with the institution through onboarding so the relationship holds
- You will work remotely, but the institutions are physical places near you. Expect to travel locally and present in person when it matters.

What we are looking for

- MBA, preferably with a marketing or business development specialisation
- 2+ years in B2B sales, institutional sales, or education sector business development
- Exceptional communication in English, and fluency in your regional language
- The ability to hold a room - you will present to principals and management committees, often people considerably more senior than you
- Comfort with indifference. Most institutions will not be looking for this when you arrive.



You need to create interest where none existed, and stay composed when the first answer is no
- Willingness to work in a startup: unstructured, fast-moving, and without the support systems of a large organisation
- Based anywhere in India, with the right to work here

What we offer

- Basic pay plus incentives on every partnership you close. The incentive is uncapped - your earnings are decided by your results, not by a band. Compensation is discussed in detail at interview
- Remote working, anywhere in India
- Direct access to the founding team, and real influence over how this is built
- A product you can defend honestly. We do not promise jobs, we do not oversell, and we fund free education for students who cannot pay

Please note: travel expenses are not separately reimbursed. We have deliberately put that money into the incentive structure instead, so the people who close more partnerships earn more rather than the people who travel more.

One honest note

This is an early-stage company. You will build the sales process rather than inherit one. If you want a defined territory, a warm pipeline and a manager who has done this before you - this is not that role yet. If you want to be the person who built it, it is.
