What are the responsibilities and job description for the Account Executive - Remote (California Only) position at Informed K12?
Who we are
At Informed K12, we're on a mission to help school district administrators operate efficiently and gain insight into their most critical school business processes. Still today, most school districts have hundreds of mission-critical processes that run on paper, making visibility and improvement near impossible. We transform paperwork from a daily stumbling block into a strategic tool. This makes it possible to hire the right teachers for the right classrooms faster, manage bus routes for students without permanent housing, ensure teachers get reimbursed and paid on time, and a lot more. In short, we are powering the future of school district operations by helping district administrators drive the systemic change needed to improve productivity, accountability, and equity.
Our founders came out of Stanford University's Graduate School of Education. Informed K12 (formerly Chalk Schools) was one of the first companies funded by Stanford's StartX accelerator and top education technology incubator Imagine K12, now part of Y Combinator.
