We have been helping education companies find top executives and assemble goal-driven teams for over 25 years.

Sales & Business
Development Expansion

“With the goal of sustainable impact, the sales team increases revenue flow, grows existing and new territories, and builds a network by establishing and strengthening connections.”

Building repeatable sales growth within the Education markets (early learning, k-12, higher education, vocational training, continuing learning, corporate education) relies significantly on building authentic networks and delivering successful, solution-led customer engagement.

Organizations looking to increase revenue, establish territory growth and impact end-users require a sales methodology enthusiast with an understanding of customer value propositions and a devotion to pipeline growth. Whether an organization wants to achieve rapid growth or enter a new market, partnering with TRN to build a sales team provides an efficient talent solution that draws on a quarter century’s experience placing Education and EdTech sales and business development talent.

Our custom-by-role, soft and hard skill assessment prioritizes certain traits most associated with evaluating strong sales talent, including:

• Rapid Problem Solving – The ability to quickly and intuitively recognize patterns from information
• Assertiveness – A natural tendency to take action or control in most situations
• Intensity – Propensity related to emotional vigor when overcoming challenges

We partner with our clients to place CROs, Vice Presidents, Directors, Sales/ Account/Customer Success managers, Sales Development Representatives and all revenue-driving positions.

Marketing & Growth
Talent Search

“Marketing is the growth engine for a company and should own the mandate to develop a unique brand positioning that provides customer connectivity, organizational alignment and strategic guardrails.” 

Developing healthy and consistent growth requires organizations to combine analytics-driven marketing and growth roles into more integrated positions that focuses on driving lead generation, developing a deep connection with the end-user and monetizing touchpoints. When hiring marketing talent, TRN evaluates a candidate’s ability to monitor and evaluate results, create and execute against a go-to-market strategy, and be a marketing technology expert.

• Vocabulary – A measure of how easily and quickly a person picks up and learns new concepts and ideas
• Logical Problem Solving – The ability to apply a step-by-step approach to solve problems
• Structure – A natural tendency to seek order and correctness
