About the Role

On behalf of our fast-growing technology partner, Savvital is seeking a high-energy, self-motivated Appointment Setter. Our client provides an innovative, AI-driven platform revolutionizing how students, schools, and higher education institutions navigate the college admissions process.

In this role, you will lead outbound B2B prospecting, pitching directly to high-level higher education leaders, including VPs of Admissions and University Deans. We are looking for a driven sales professional who takes complete ownership of their pipeline, communicates with exceptional executive polish, and thrives in a fast-paced environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Conduct targeted outbound outreach to higher education leaders, including Deans, Directors, and VPs of Admissions.
• Pitch the platform’s value proposition to qualify prospects and secure high-value B2B sales appointments.
• Build and manage a strong sales pipeline through targeted calling, tailored email campaigns, and executive networking.
• Articulate complex AI-driven solutions clearly, professionally, and persuasively to university decision-makers.
• Take full ownership of key performance indicators (KPIs), focusing on booked meetings and converted sales opportunities.

What You’ll Do

• Outreach & Prospecting: Cold call high-profile contacts (Directors, VPs of Admissions, and Deans) at targeted universities to book high-value sales appointments.
• Pipeline Management: Follow up persistently via phone and email to maximize conversions, build a strong pipeline, and hit weekly performance benchmarks.
• CRM Operations: Utilize industry-standard sales software for phone/email sequences and maintain accurate, up-to-date records in HubSpot.
• GTM Strategy: Strategize and refine our Go-To-Market (GTM) approach directly with business reps and the CEO during bi-weekly strategic meetings.
• Value Pitching: Articulate complex AI-driven solutions clearly, professionally, and persuasively to academic decision-makers.

Who You Are

• Experience: 1 to 3+ years of proven sales, business development, or outbound appointment setting experience (EdTech or selling to universities is a huge plus).
• Communication: Exceptional, native-level English accent with top-notch verbal and written delivery suited for executive-level conversations.
• Cold Calling Skills: Strong lead generation capabilities with a resilient mindset—able to handle rejection gracefully and take "no" for an answer while staying motivated.
• Mindset: Self-motivated, goal-oriented, and driven with a high degree of personal accountability and a desire to learn.
• Adaptability: Comfortable working remotely with a flexible schedule, managing priorities, and navigating complex organizational hierarchies.

• Industry Focus: Previous experience in EdTech or selling directly to higher education institutions/universities is a huge plus.
• Mindset: Highly driven, proactive, and energetic, with a strong sense of personal accountability and ownership.
• Sales Acumen: Comfortably handle objections, build immediate rapport with senior leaders, and navigate complex organizational decision hierarchies.

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive market-aligned base salary with performance-based bonuses and commission incentives.
• Comprehensive health insurance coverage.
• Internet and utility allowances to support a high-performing remote setup.
• Annual performance reviews and salary increments.
