Growth Manager - District Partnerships

Innovamat • New York, NY

20h • $90,000 - $110,000

About The Position

Innovamat is transforming K–8 math education across the U.S. and beyond — and we’re just getting started. We’re a leading global EdTech startup, with 300+ teammates across 10 countries, scaling fast and building from the ground up in the U.S. Our research-backed curriculum, intervention programs, and adaptive technology are already trusted by 27,000+ teachers in 2,600+ schools worldwide, and our momentum is accelerating.
Backed by world-class thinkers like Peter Liljedahl (Building Thinking Classrooms), Innovamat sits at the intersection of learning science, product, and execution. We move quickly, test boldly, and care deeply about impact. If you like environments where ideas turn into action — and action turns into results — you’ll feel at home here.
We believe math should be joyful, meaningful, and transformational — not rote memorization or worksheets. We partner closely with districts and teachers to reimagine what math classrooms can be.
This is not a traditional sales role. It’s a chance to join a high-growth startup at a pivotal moment, take real ownership of expansion, and build a career with no ceiling. The impact you make here will be visible, measurable, and directly tied to how far you want to go.
You’ll be on the front lines of Innovamat’s U.S. growth — opening new markets, shaping how we scale, and stepping into problems that don’t yet have a clear owner but are critical to the business.
If you’re excited by ambiguity, love building from scratch, and want exposure well beyond a typical sales remit, keep reading.
We’re looking for a Growth Manager to fuel Innovamat’s expansion across New York.
This role is for people who:
Thrive on prospecting and opening doors
Want to build in ambiguity, not step into a polished machine
Are competitive, resilient, and energized by the hustle of growth
Want exposure to cross-functional initiatives that shape how the company scales
You’ll own relationships with district leaders, lead consultative first meetings, and partner closely with senior leaders and math experts to close transformational, district-level deals.
Success here isn’t about maintaining accounts — it’s about hunting, building pipeline, launching new districts, and driving net-new revenue, while also contributing to how we grow as an organization.

Requirements

• Sales experience (ideally in education, especially New York) OR a proven track record of grit, resilience, and performance in another fast paced environment (e.g. investment banking, consulting, private equity, engineering, operations, or early-stage startups).
• Competitive drive: rejection fuels you.
• Relationship-builder instinct and curiosity about people.
• Entrepreneurial energy: you thrive on travel, growth, and big goals.
• Curiosity about education — willing to learn pedagogy while selling.
• Comfort with ambiguity and a “blank-page” mindset.
• Willingness to travel ~50%.

Responsibilities

• Prospect relentlessly: Build new district relationships through outbound outreach, creative approaches, and strong local presence.
• Lead first meetings: Run consultative conversations that uncover district needs and spark excitement around a new approach to math education.
• Own growth in ambiguity: Step into unclear problems and bring clarity, structure, and momentum — whether that’s supporting pilots, expansion initiatives, or new market entry efforts.
• Lead cross-functional initiatives: Take ownership of growth projects that cut across sales, operations, and product — especially those without a clear owner but with high strategic impact.
• Partner to close: Work alongside senior sales leaders and Math Success Managers to deliver demos, design pilots, and secure long-term partnerships.
• Be the face of Innovamat: Represent the company at conferences, host local events, and build brand presence across your territory.
• Own your number: Build and execute a personal growth plan to consistently exceed targets.
• Learn the business deeply: Get hands-on across teams to understand how Innovamat operates end-to-end and help improve processes as we scale.

Benefits

• Impact: Transform how thousands of students learn math. Be part of our early-stage expansion team in the US that is on track to be the industry leader!
• Growth: No ceiling — your career scales with your results.
• Movement: More than a job — be part of an education transformation.
• Team: Join passionate, mission-driven colleagues.
• Compensation: Competitive package $90K - $110K base salary ($150K+ OTE) + 5% 401k match.
• Benefits: Comprehensive health, dental & vision coverage; company-provided laptop and phone; all travel expenses covered; generous PTO (22+ days) plus an additional company-wide holiday shutdown week during Christmas
