Grand Canyon Education (GCE) is a rapidly growing educational service company that has long been an industry leader in providing educational, operational and technological support services to the post‑secondary education sector. Formerly part of Grand Canyon University (GCU), GCE still works closely with GCU to benefit thousands of students, families and the local inner‑city community. We put people first, drive innovation, and do good in the community that we live and work in.

We are looking for a motivated Account Executive to oversee the

Huntington, WV

territory in this unique community‑based opportunity. Starting salary is

$75,000

per year with an earning potential of a six‑figure income after five years of successful service. New hire training will be held in‑person at our Phoenix, AZ campus.

Grand Canyon Education offers a generous benefits package, including 100% tuition‑free education for employees through the Master’s degree program level and 75% coverage at the Doctorate degree program level. In addition, an employee’s spouse, children and dependents are also offered generous tuition benefits.

Who You Are You’re a goal‑getter who is passionate about the power of education. Over the past 3+ years, you’ve demonstrated success in outside business development, consultative sales, or account management. You know it’s not all about achieving your goals. While that gets you excited, what you really thrive on is using your exceptional communication and coaching skills to help non‑traditional Grand Canyon University students level up in their lives through quality education.

As an Account Executive, a typical week might include the following:

Strategy and execution: consistently identifying and implementing event/activity plans for your territory, building awareness of our online academic programs for education, healthcare and business, and driving inquiry generation. Shape high‑impact partnerships for your territory and execute your daily work through informational presentations, calls and emails, iterating as needed to maximize value.

Partner and influencer: through a variety of mediums, use your passion for serving others to provide exceptional counseling to prospective students, their families and partners. Champion the GCE mission, promoting Grand Canyon University student success and institutional growth.

Heart and hustle: this is a remote role with ambitious targets! Working independently, use your out‑of‑the‑box critical thinking skills to support prospective Grand Canyon University students through the admissions process, guiding them on the right path toward a successful online learning experience.

The role might be right for you if you have:

A bachelor’s degree is required. No delinquent or in‑default federal student loan. If in a rehabilitation program, your credit report must reflect current payments.

Outstanding time‑management skills. Prioritize competing priorities even while traveling.

Clear communication skills. Explain anything to anyone and be comfortable communicating in person, in writing and on the phone. Possess well‑developed listening skills.

Self‑motivation and drive to succeed. Volunteer for new challenges without being asked. Take ownership of your time spent with Grand Canyon University students.

High emotional intelligence. Coach a diverse range of students with unique circumstances. Demonstrate empathy.

A valid driver’s license, reliable transportation and a flexible schedule. Clean driving record and ability to use your personal vehicle. Some events may require evening or weekend availability.

Computer literacy. Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite is required.

Bonus Points If You Have

Relevant industry‑related professional experience.

Experience working with CRM tools.

What We’ll Offer In Return

A career where your work makes a difference.

A stable income with a good salary.

Opportunity to own your part of the business without the risks of owning your own business.

Ongoing professional development and growth.

Outstanding benefits and work perks.

Collaborative and supportive work environment.
