Job Description
To sustain their exponential growth and as part of their globalization strategy, Lemon Learning is looking for new talents to help them grow their business and conquer new markets worldwide. As a Country Manager at Lemon Learning, your role will be to develop our business in the United Kingdom. 90% of this position consists of sales missions and 10% of operations and strategy management.
In five years, Lemon Learning has become a leader in France on the new and thriving Digital Adoption Platform market, standing out against competitors with longstanding or successful fundraising experience. We owe it all to our very unique customer-centric culture, our innovative product and sales excellence.
Your role will be to duplicate this success story in the United Kingdom. Your role will be similar to the one of a Startup Founder: alone and very sales oriented at first, you will have to grow the business to its maximum, and than hire and manage a team as you grow the operations. You will have to grow the business locally, ie develop a new client portfolio, recruit and manage staff, monitor performance, develop key strategic partnerships, increase brand awareness at local trade fairs and events, and many more!
You will be under the direct supervision of the Lemon Learning CEO, based in France. You will have to bootstrap a lot of things and be savvy on your approach, but you will be able to count on the resources, dedication, and expertise of the French teams. A budget is planned for a few trade shows, coworking space, and one or more interns.
