About the Role

We are looking for energetic, curious and people-oriented Business Development Associates (BDAs) to join our growing Future Leaders Program (FLP) team.

This isn't just a typical sales job.

You'll speak with students, parents, colleges and educational stakeholders, understand where a student is in their academic and career journey, explain how FLP can help, and guide interested students toward the right next step.

If you enjoy conversations, building relationships, understanding people's needs and working towards measurable goals, you'll probably enjoy this role.

- Speak with students and parents who have shown interest in FLP.
- Understand their academic background, career interests and future goals.
