About the Role
As a Higher Education Consultant (HEC), your core responsibility is to convert prospective student leads into successful enrollments. Working closely with the Sales Manager, you’ll guide future students through their journey — from initial inquiries to application and registration.

- At least two years in customer relationship management or account management
- Strong communication and presentation skills
- Solid Microsoft Office proficiency, especially Excel
- A valid driver’s license and reliable transport
- Willingness to work some evenings and weekends
Behaviourally, the ideal candidate is self-driven, organised, and resilient, with excellent analytical and networking skills. You must be confident in handling high volumes of interactions while maintaining a personal and professional touch with every prospective student.
