Grand Canyon Education (GCE) is a rapidly growing educational service company that has long been an industry leader in providing educational, operational and technological support services to the post‑secondary education sector. Formerly part of Grand Canyon University (GCU), GCE still works closely with GCU to benefit thousands of students, families and the local inner‑city community. We put people first, drive innovation, and do good in the community that we live and work in.

We are looking for a motivated Account Executive to oversee the White Mountain, AZ territory in this unique community‑based opportunity. Starting salary is $75,000 per year with an earning potential of a six‑figure income after 5 years of successful service as an Account Executive/University Development Counselor.

Must live in or near the Show Low, Payson, Greer, St. John’s or Pinetop, AZ.

New hire training will be held in‑person at our Phoenix, AZ campus.

Grand Canyon Education offers a generous benefits package, including 100% tuition‑free education for employees through the master’s degree program level and 75% coverage at the Doctorate degree program level. In addition, an employee’s spouse, children and dependents are also offered generous tuition benefits.

You’re a goal‑getter who is passionate about the power of education. Over the past 3+ years, you’ve demonstrated success in outside business development, consultative sales or account management. You know it’s not all about achieving and often crushing your goals; what truly drives you is using your exceptional communication and coaching skills to help non‑traditional Grand Canyon University students level up in their lives through quality education.

• Strategy and execution: consistently identify and implement event/activity plans for your territory, build awareness of our online academic programs for education, healthcare and business, and drive inquiry generation. Use your unique ability to fly at 25,000 feet in shaping high‑impact partnerships while executing daily work through presentations, calls, emails, and iterative value maximization.
• Partner and influencer: through a variety of mediums, provide exceptional counseling to prospective students, their families and partners. Whether in‑person, over the phone or via email, champion the GCE mission, promoting Grand Canyon University student success and institutional growth.
• Heart and hustle: this is a work‑from‑home role with ambitious targets. Working independently, use your out‑of‑the‑box critical thinking skills to support prospective Grand Canyon University students through the admissions process, guiding them on the right path toward a successful online learning experience.

• A bachelor’s degree required.
• Outstanding time‑management skills. You must be able to prioritize competing priorities even while traveling.
• Clear communication skills. You can explain concepts to anyone in person, in writing, and on the phone and have well‑developed listening skills.
• Self‑motivation and drive to succeed. You volunteer for new challenges without waiting to be asked and truly make a difference in the lives of students.
• High emotional intelligence. Demonstrate empathy while coaching a diverse range of students.
• A valid driver’s license, reliable transportation and a flexible schedule. Since this role requires extensive travel in your territory, you need a clean driving record and the ability to use a personal vehicle. Some events may require evening and/or weekend availability.
• Computer literacy. Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite is required.

• Relevant industry‑related professional experience.
• Experience working with CRM tools.

• A career where your work makes a difference.
• A stable income with a good salary.
• Opportunity to own your part of the business without the risks of owning your own business.
• Ongoing professional development and growth.
• Outstanding benefits and work perks.
• Collaborative and supportive work environment.
