What we do
Purlos helps improve the students experience by decreasing learner drop out at different points of the journey, and replacing outdated methods of communications with modern approaches like WhatsApp.
Currently we are focusing on the start and the end of the learner journey, whether that’s converting more learners during enrolment, or tracking learners into a job more effectively once they leave an institution.
We've created a digital assistant to connect to students and greatly improve their support at different stages of the learner journey. We automate this engagement and analyse it at scale to make things more efficient for our clients (Further education college, Universities, and training providers).

You will be responsible for booking new business meetings, conducting those meetings online and face-to-face, and converting prospects into customers. You will work closely with the Sales Development Representative (SDR) team to identify potential customers and manage the sales process.
Because of the fast-paced nature of the industry, the role usually comes with great benefits. Some of our benefits include:
- Good base salary with uncapped commission
- Regular company socials
- 2 x Well-being days a year
To succeed, you’ll need:
- Top Tier Education (Preferred / not mandatory)
- Excellent communication skills
- Strong organisation skills
- Ability to work well under pressure and to tight deadlines
- Fluent in both spoken and written business English
