Job Description

We are seeking a dynamic and experienced Tech Sales Bootcamp Instructor to join our dedicated team. As an Instructor, you will play a pivotal role in guiding and mentoring learners through our engaging bootcamp curriculum. You will facilitate interactive classes, review lessons, lead workshops, and inspire participants to excel in their tech sales journey.

Responsibilities:

  • Conduct interactive classes on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM EST.
  • Review and facilitate lesson retrospectives on Mondays and Wednesdays, helping learners reinforce their understanding of the curriculum and real-world sales scenarios.
  • Lead Thursday workshop-style sessions, guiding learners through practical sales projects, exercises, role plays, and group activities.
  • Create a collaborative and supportive learning environment that encourages active participation, teamwork, and innovative sales strategies.
  • Provide personalized feedback and coaching to learners on their sales techniques, communication skills, and pitch presentations.

  • Stay updated with the latest sales methodologies, technologies, and trends to ensure high-quality instruction.
  • Mentor and support learners in their career development, helping them prepare for success in the tech sales field.
  • To be clear, you are NOT responsible for connecting learners to jobs, utilizing your professional networks, or providing leads for which you do not feel comfortable. Our learners succeed because they are prepared, aware, and realistic. This is not a “pay to play” situation. We have an amazing career services team and welcome your input to improve our process!

Qualifications:

  • Proven experience in technology sales (3-5 years), with a track record of successful sales and client engagement.
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to convey complex sales concepts in a clear and engaging manner.
  • Proficiency in modern sales tools, CRM systems, and sales communication platforms.
  • Knowledge of various sales methodologies, negotiation techniques, and customer relationship management strategies.
