The Role

At Stukent we refer to our Account Executive team as Course Consultants. Course Consultants are driven by Stukent’s mission and help educators access the best instructional resources available. They are goal-oriented and are inspired by making a difference in education.

The Associate Course Consultant (aCC) supports our district focused growth strategy by concentrating on smaller school district sales, managing inbound leads, and building the foundation for regional growth.

This structure allows CCs to focus on larger accounts, while ensuring that all Districts are approached strategically.

The ideal candidate is humble, hard-working, a self-starter, and an excellent communicator. They are driven to improve the teacher’s experience and obsessed with learning and sharing insights. They are persistent and perceptive, collaborative and kind, detail-oriented and diligent, strategic, and thrive in a collaborative, fast-moving environment. Most importantly, they embrace learning, deliver results, work hard, and have fun along the way!
