Job Description

Sales Account Executive

Sawyer launched in Brooklyn in 2015 to transform the way the modern parent accesses educational opportunities for their children.

Inspired by a love of learning, two female tech leaders set out to revolutionize education as we know it. Marissa Evans Alden, Co-Founder and CEO, launched her career in the tech space as the founder of Go Try it On, which was later acquired by Rent The Runway. After joining the RTR team, Marissa headed up Radical Innovation. Stephanie Choi, Co-Founder and COO, led teams at RTR and Bloomingdale’s.

According to Forbes, “Sawyer reimagined the way parents approach early childhood education in the modern age”.

Our mission is give every child the opportunity to discover their own love of learning.

We have built custom software to help educational providers, from artists, to musicians, from science instructors to dancers, manage and run educational classes and camps for children. Our software ingests all of these classes and shares them on our own site, HiSawyer.com, making it simple and fun for parents to discover options for their children.

We are seeking entrepreneurial go-getters looking to grow their sales skills. If you are the type of person who wants to help scale a sales organization, contribute to a team of exceptional leaders who care about making an impact in this country, please contact us.
