We’re hiring: Head of Domestic Growth / National Growth Manager

Sydney | Team Performance Bonus + B2B Commission | Full-time

NextEd Group (ASX: NXD) is looking for a commercially sharp sales and growth leader to help us build the next phase of our domestic business.

This is not a traditional sales management role.

You’ll inherit a B2C enrolments team and be responsible for lifting sales performance, conversion and commercial discipline. At the same time, you’ll personally build and sell into our growing B2B market acoss multiple states, developing employer relationships, generating pipeline, pitching solutions and closing opportunities across traineeships, workforce programs, enterprise training, job providers, government and partnerships.

It’s a role for someone who enjoys leading and building.

What you’ll own

- Lead, coach and develop our Learning Consultant sales team
- Drive domestic enrolment, conversion and revenue performance
- Strengthen pipeline management, forecasting, CRM discipline and sales processes
- Build and test new Domestic B2B channels and go-to-market approaches with our Chief Commercial Officer
- Personally own B2B prospecting, pipeline development, pitching, negotiation and closing
- Develop employer, industry, job provider and commercial relationships that generate revenue
- Work closely with our CCO, International Sales and Group Marketing on strategic partnerships and larger opportunities
- Partner with our national Operations team to turn growth opportunities into execution

Who we’re looking for

You’ll probably have led a sales,



growth or enrolments team before, but we’re less concerned about your exact industry background than what you can do.

You’re likely someone who

- Can coach a sales team and lift performance, not just manage activity
- Is a strong B2B seller in your own right and is still comfortable personally carrying a pipeline and closing deals
- Is comfortable getting into the detail of calls, pipelines, conversion, sales scripts and numbers
- Has strong commercial instincts and understands how to translate opportunity into revenue
- Has experience developing B2B relationships, partnerships or new sales channels and generating B2B revenue
- Brings structure and discipline without creating unnecessary bureaucracy
- Is equally comfortable talking to a salesperson about their conversion rate, opening a new B2B relationship and negotiating a commercial partnership
- Likes building, testing and improving rather than inheriting a finished playbook
- Is curious about AI, emerging technology and how they can create new products, revenue models, growth channels and better ways of working

Experience in education, training, workforce development or an RTO environment would be valuable,



but it isn’t essential.

Why this role is interesting

NextEd is one of Australia’s largest listed education providers, supporting more than 20,000 students each year across workforce-relevant education spanning health, community services, childcare, hospitality, IT, technology and creative industries. We provide education and training services across young learner and high school programs, Vocational Education (VET), Higher Education and enterprise training.

We’re going through an exciting period of transformation, with a robust focus on innovation, AI and diversifying how we grow. We’re particularly interested in people who are curious about how emerging technology can change the way we work, what we sell and the markets we can reach.

We have scale, established brands and partnerships with world-leading technology companies including OpenAI, Anthropic and IBM. The opportunity now is to build a more sophisticated and diversified domestic growth model.

You’ll have genuine scope to influence how we sell, where we grow, what new opportunities we pursue and how the function evolves.

A note on level

We’re open to appointing this role as either Head of Domestic Growth or National Growth Manager, depending on the experience, capability and leadership scope of the successful candidate.

If you’re a strong commercial operator who wants to lead a team, sell, build new revenue channels and help shape a growth function, we’d like to hear from you.
