Sales Representative — Abidjan (M/F)
Who are we?
écoleVersity (ecoleversity.com) is an Ivorian online tutoring platform: verified teachers give live one-on-one video lessons to students from primary school to Terminale (BEPC & BAC preparation) — in maths, physics-chemistry, French and English. The same quality as a home tutor, for 20 to 25% less. Parents pay via Orange Money or Wave, only if the lesson takes place, and receive a written progress report after every session. 48-hour money-back guarantee. Teachers set their own rate and get paid by mobile money, without commuting.
Your dual mission
You grow BOTH sides of the platform:
- Teacher side (the heart of the role): identify and convince Abidjan's good teachers and tutors (those already doing private tutoring) to join the platform — and help them bring their current students with them: teach online, no commuting, with payment guaranteed via Wave/Orange Money;
- Parent side: meet parents where they are (bookshop exits, pharmacies, parent associations, workplaces) and walk each parent through to their first paid session (demo on their own phone, assisted booking and Wave/Orange Money payment);
- Build local partnerships: bookshops and stationers, pharmacies, parent associations;
- Send a simple report every evening via Telegram (areas covered, parent AND teacher contacts, sessions booked, demand by subject/level);
- Represent the brand seriously: badge, dress code, certified pitch.
Who we are looking for
- Minimum 2 years of field experience in direct-to-consumer sales (telecoms, mobile money, insurance, activation);
- BAC level minimum; excellent spoken French; very comfortable with a smartphone;
- Able to convince a mum as well as a teacher — a network in the education world (teachers, schools, tutoring) is a real plus;
- Autonomous, honest, organised — you work alone, with remote management;
- Based in Abidjan; knowing its neighbourhoods well is a plus.
The path — clear from day one
- 1A paid 2-week trial assignment (training, pitch certification, first days in the field);
- 2Then a 90-day validation period with clear, measurable targets;
- 3Long-term collaboration based on results — with real growth prospects if targets are met. We are looking for someone who wants to prove themselves in the field, not a guaranteed desk job from day one.
Compensation
- Monthly base + transport allowance + communication allowance + uncapped results-based commissions — paid weekly via Wave or Orange Money, on a line-by-line verifiable statement, including for families who arrive through the teachers you recruit;
- Detailed figures are presented at the interview;
- State your salary expectations in your application (optional, but appreciated).
Phone interview, then a video interview with a live sales roleplay.
No application fee — we never ask candidates for money.
