About The Position

This part-time role is crucial for driving sales, enhancing brand awareness, and providing valuable insights from a student's perspective. This is not a typical brand ambassador role; PCAs gain real-world experience by collaborating with product and marketing teams, working on a virtual team, and developing professional communication skills. Pearson fosters an inclusive and diverse work environment where every idea and perspective is valued.

• Able to commit to work for one academic school year. We prefer students to continue on in the program until graduation.
• Preferably at least one semester of experience using Pearson+ MyLab, Mastering, or REVEL technology.

• Strong interpersonal and presentation skills: energetic, outgoing relationship-building skills are a must.
