About OfEd

OfEd is an educational publishing and engagement platform that helps schools and colleges connect learning, practice, academic publishing, and student portfolios.

For schools, our offerings include NEET preparation books, previous-year question banks, and school-specific editions with QR-linked access to digital learning and practice. OfEd supports teachers in guiding students through learning, practice, correction, and revision.

For colleges, OfEd enables departments to manage faculty-led assignments, review student submissions, and publish approved work. Students build portfolios through academic work reviewed by their faculty. Submissions remain private to the relevant faculty and students until approved for public publishing.

Our work includes supporting departmental academic publishing and student portfolios at Madras Christian College (MCC), Chennai, including its Journalism department.

About the Role

We are looking for an experienced educator or institutional sales professional to introduce OfEd to schools and colleges, build relationships with decision-makers, and convert suitable opportunities into book orders and platform adoption.

You will meet school correspondents, principals, headmasters, college leaders, heads of departments, academic coordinators, and faculty. The role combines institutional outreach, product presentations, commercial follow-up, and coordination with the OfEd team.

Retired educators who wish to continue contributing to education through institutional engagement are encouraged to apply. Relevant teaching and leadership experience will be valued alongside sales experience.
