About LeapQuest
LeapQuest is an MBA & MS admissions consulting firm helping ambitious students and professionals gain admission to leading global business schools and universities.
Our primary focus is MBA admissions, where we help applicants with profile evaluation, school shortlisting, CVs, essays, applications, interviews, and overall admissions strategy. We also have a smaller vertical supporting +1/+2 students with choosing the right undergraduate courses and colleges globally.
About the Role
We are looking for a Business Development Associate (Sales) who can take ownership of the sales process from the first conversation to conversion.
You will speak directly with MBA/MS aspirants, understand their goals and requirements, explain how LeapQuest can help, handle objections, follow up consistently, and convert qualified prospects into paying clients.
This is a target-driven, phone-based sales role suited for someone who enjoys speaking with people, persuading, following up, and closing deals.
What You'll Do
- Generate and qualify leads through calls and other outreach channels.
- Speak with prospective MBA/MS applicants and understand their academic, professional, and admissions goals.
- Pitch LeapQuest's admissions consulting services based on the prospect's profile and requirements.
- Conduct follow-ups with prospective clients through calls, WhatsApp, email, and other relevant channels.
- Handle questions and objections related to our services, process, timelines, and value proposition.
- Move prospects through the sales funnel and convert qualified leads into paying clients.
- Maintain accurate lead and follow-up records.
- Work toward daily calling/activity expectations and monthly sales targets.
- Coordinate with the internal admissions consulting team when additional information or clarification is required.
- Identify opportunities to introduce relevant undergraduate admissions services to +1/+2 students and their parents when appropriate.
- Continuously improve your pitch, objection handling, follow-up approach, and conversion rate based on results.
What We're Looking For
- More than 10 months of experience in sales, business development, inside sales, telesales, or a similar customer-facing role is preferred.
- Strong verbal communication and interpersonal skills.
- Comfortable speaking with prospects over the phone and conducting repeated follow-ups.
- Ability to understand a customer's requirements and recommend the appropriate service.

- Comfortable working from the office six days a week.
- Prior experience selling education, consulting, SaaS, or other high-consideration services is a plus.
What Matters Most
We are looking for someone who can:
Talk → Understand → Pitch → Follow Up → Handle Objections → Close.
You don't need to be an MBA admissions expert when you join. We will help you understand our services and offerings. What matters is your sales ability, communication, persistence, and willingness to learn.
