We're Hiring!
Founder’s Office Associate – Sales & Business Development | Pericles Academy
Gurugram | Full-time | 1–3 years out of college
ABOUT PERICLES ACADEMY
Rethinking how children are educated and counseled.
Schools still prepare students for a world where knowing the answer was enough. Counselors still run the old playbook, recommending the same profile-building activities thousands of applicants copy. Neither works anymore. Pericles Academy is an ed-tech company built on personalised education: helping every student discover their passion, go deep in it, and make informed college and career choices.
Our programmes:
- Ivy League Mentorship Programme
- College Admissions Counseling
- Research and Capstone Project Mentorship
- Workshops for Parents and Schools
- Immersive Learning Bootcamps
We’re a lean team, founded by an IIT and UC Berkeley alumnus with 14+ years in investment banking in New York and London.
THE ROLE
You’ll work directly with the Founder on whatever matters most: converting parent enquiries, opening a school partnership, launching a programme or preparing a proposal. This is not an assistant role. You’ll own outcomes, not tasks.
WHAT YOU’LL WORK ON
- Sales and enrolments (your home base): Own the pipeline from first parent conversation to enrolment, and follow up until it closes.
- Partnerships: Build relationships with schools, residential communities, clubs and corporates.
Research: Identify and size up new programmes, partners, markets and channels.
- Founder support: Build sharp decks, proposals and briefs; prepare for key meetings.
Coordination: Run workshops and parent sessions; coordinate across teams and keep projects on track.
YOU MIGHT BE A FIT IF YOU
- Graduated in the last 1–3 years, ideally from Ashoka, a leading DU college (SRCC, St. Stephen’s, LSR, Miranda House, Gargi), or a similar institution in the US, UK, Singapore or Australia
- Have exposure to sales, BD, consulting or a startup, or have run something: a society, a fest, a side venture
- Are confident and credible with well-educated parents and school leaders
- Communicate clearly in English, spoken and written
- Use AI tools like Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini fluently
- Care about how education is changing
- Get things done without being chased, and are comfortable with ambiguity
WHAT YOU GET
- Direct mentorship from the Founder
- Exposure across sales, partnerships, marketing and strategy
- Revenue sharing, with equity upside for the right candidate
