Help shape how young Australians connect education with the world of work.

The Careers Department is looking for an ambitious, confident and relationship-driven Junior Partnerships Executive to join our growing team.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who wants to build a career in sales, media, partnerships or business development and learn how to sell a product with genuine purpose and impact.

You'll be working across both sides of our network - partnering with schools and educators, while also working with employers, universities and industry partners who want to connect with the next generation.

You don't need years of sales experience. We're looking for someone with energy, commercial instinct, confidence and a genuine appetite to learn.

You'll learn how to prospect, pitch, run product demonstrations, manage a sales pipeline, build proposals, negotiate partnerships and ultimately close deals.

If you're great with people and excited by the idea of building a career in partnerships or media sales, this could be the perfect first step.

About the role

You'll support the growth of The Careers Department by building new relationships with schools, employers and industry partners across Australia.

The role combines business development, sales, account management and partnerships.

One day you might be demonstrating the TCD platform to a school principal or careers adviser. The next, you could be speaking with a major employer about how they can use TCD to build their future talent pipeline and engage thousands of students.

You'll be trained across the full sales process and given the chance to take ownership of your own pipeline from an early stage.

As you grow, so will the size of the clients,



partnerships and opportunities you manage.

What you'll be doing

- Identify and approach prospective school, industry and employer partners. This includes outbound calls.
- Make outbound calls and send targeted outreach to prospective partners
- Learn how to run confident and engaging demonstrations of the TCD platform
- Meet with schools to understand their careers education needs and demonstrate how TCD can support their students
- Speak with employers and industry partners about student engagement, employer branding and future talent opportunities
- Support the development of proposals, partnership packages and commercial opportunities
- Maintain strong follow-up and keep CRM and pipeline information accurate and up to date
- Attend meetings, networking events, industry events and school activations
- Build long-term relationships with clients and identify opportunities to grow existing partnerships
- Work closely with our partnerships, marketing, education and product teams
- Learn how to negotiate, present and communicate with senior stakeholders

About you

You're ambitious, personable and excited by the idea of building a career in business development or partnerships.

You enjoy talking to people, you're comfortable picking up the phone and you don't mind hearing "no" on the way to getting a "yes".

You're commercially curious and naturally interested in understanding how businesses work.

Most importantly, you have the energy and appetite to learn quickly.
