Location: Cambridge

Qualifications: You are likely to be an engineering or science graduate

An opportunity to apply your engineering/materials knowledge and to develop a business career with a rapidly growing, established Cambridge University spin-off. At Granta, we are the materials information technology experts. We work with leading high tech and engineering organizations such as NASA, Rolls-Royce, GE, and Honeywell and supports and enhances teaching at over 700 universities and colleges worldwide. CES EduPack is a unique educational product—a set of teaching resources, based around a powerful software package, that support university-level teaching of materials across a broad range of subjects. Correctly approached, senior academics love what we do. It connects topics curriculum-wide and engages students with the subject.

You could be part of the team that grows use of CES EduPack to even more universities and extends into more subject areas. Using the telephone, doing remote demonstrations over the web to senior academics, your first job is to show how their goals can be more easily met with EduPack, and to get them to use the product. Then, you must work collaboratively with customers to help them succeed and to identify and involve colleagues who can extend use of EduPack. You will apply and develop skills not just in “selling”, but in business strategy, communication with senior contacts, and long-term project work. There will be excellent opportunities for career advancement as the company grows.
