Job description

About ScholarshipOwl

ScholarshipOwl is the largest scholarship marketplace in the U.S., connecting over 14 million Gen Z students with private scholarships — and the brands that power them. Our mission is to make education financing more accessible and engaging, while giving brands a way to connect with the next generation.

We’re powered by AI technology that simplifies scholarship discovery, streamlines the application process, and delivers measurable results for both students and partners. Whether it’s helping students secure funding or enabling brands to run impactful campaigns, we’re reshaping how education is funded — and discovered.

The Role

We are looking for a proactive, results-oriented Account Executive (Full Cycle) to take absolute ownership of our revenue growth through relentless outbound prospecting and strategic closing. This is a high-impact, mid-to-senior level role designed for a true "hunter" who thrives on turning cold opportunities into high-quality, long-term B2B clients for our SSC and Pro product lines.

In this role, you won't just wait for inbound leads—you will own the entire sales lifecycle. From high-volume outbound prospecting and aggressive qualification to commanding product demos and closing complex deals, you will drive the pipeline that fuels our expansion. If you are motivated by building a massive book of business from scratch and live for the win of closing net-new revenue, you’ll thrive in this position.

What You’ll Do

  • Relentless Prospecting: Execute high-volume daily outbound campaigns (calls, emails, LinkedIn) to hunt for net-new opportunities and consistently book discovery meetings.

  • Full-Cycle Ownership: Run the entire sales process from initial cold outreach and aggressive qualification to running product demos, sending proposals, and closing deals.

  • Data-Driven Pipeline Triage: Actively manage your sales funnel within HubSpot, performing regular pipeline reviews to prioritize high-value opportunities and ruthlessly cut weak leads.

  • Drive Revenue & Velocity: Take absolute ownership of your targets, driving urgency in deal cycles to progress opportunities through late-stage negotiations and contract signing.

  • Hit Major Milestones: Deliver measurable growth in your first 90 days by generating $175–$300K in qualified pipeline (approx. 20–30 qualified meetings) and closing at least one net-new deal within your first six months.

  • Iterate & Optimize: Continuously refine your outreach messaging and campaign targeting based on performance metrics to maximize conversion rates.
