Outbound EdTech Partnerships Executive

About The Hiring Company

We are hiring on behalf of a Singapore-based EdTech company that supports schools and education stakeholders in student guidance, future pathway planning, and career-readiness outcomes.

The company works with students in the upper-secondary to pre-university age range and helps schools provide better guidance around strengths, pathways, career readiness, and future options.

This role is suitable for someone who enjoys hands‑on business development, direct outreach, enterprise or institutional stakeholder engagement, and building new relationships from the ground up.

This is a hands‑on business development and partnerships role for a Singapore-based EdTech company.

The successful candidate will help build a pipeline of schools, institutions, enterprise organisations, and relevant education‑related partners. The work involves reaching out to prospects, arranging meetings, developing relationships, understanding stakeholder needs, and moving suitable opportunities towards demos, pilots, proposals, partnerships, or paid engagements.

This is not mainly an inbound sales role.

The role requires someone who is comfortable creating activity directly through outreach, canvassing, networking, follow‑up, and prospect meetings. Most working days will involve field‑based or offsite activity, with Fridays usually reserved for office meetings and internal alignment.

You will do well here if you are commercially driven, practical, disciplined with follow‑up, and comfortable building opportunities from the ground up.

• Able to keep generating fresh prospects after the easiest leads or personal contacts are exhausted
• Strong communication skills and confidence engaging external stakeholders
• Comfortable speaking with schools, institutions, organisations, enterprise decision‑makers, or professional stakeholders
