About LearnTechNow

LearnTechNow is building an accessible digital skills education platform that helps people develop practical digital skills and move towards employment, career growth, and entrepreneurship.

About the Role

We are looking for an EdTech Growth Specialist who understands how education businesses grow.

You will develop and execute strategies across learner acquisition, conversion, partnerships, referrals, community growth, and retention.

We are not simply looking for someone who can run campaigns or post content. We want someone who can identify growth opportunities, test ideas, analyse results, and build repeatable systems that drive measurable growth.

What You’ll Do

• Develop and execute LearnTechNow’s growth strategy.

• Identify and optimise learner acquisition channels.

• Improve the journey from awareness to registration and enrolment.

• Develop and test growth experiments across marketing, referrals, partnerships, and community.

• Develop strategic partnerships with schools, universities, companies, communities, and organisations.

• Explore referral, ambassador, affiliate, and community driven growth strategies.

• Analyse growth data and identify opportunities for improvement.

• Research the African EdTech market, competitors, and learner behaviour.

• Work closely with the leadership and marketing teams to execute growth initiatives.

• Build repeatable growth systems rather than relying only on one off campaigns.

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience growing an EdTech, education, SaaS, community, marketplace, or other digital product.

• Strong understanding of growth strategy and user acquisition.

• Understanding of the EdTech customer journey, from acquisition to retention.

• Experience running and analysing growth experiments.

• Experience with partnerships, business development, community growth, or referral strategies.

• Strong analytical and problem solving skills.

• Ability to turn data and insights into practical decisions.

• Strong communication and collaboration skills.

• Ability to work independently and take ownership.

Most importantly, you should think in terms of growth and outcomes, not just activities.

What Would Make You Stand Out

• Experience growing an EdTech business in Africa.

• Experience growing an education product from an early stage.

• Understanding of the Nigerian and African digital skills education market.

• Experience with B2B or B2B2C education partnerships.

• A track record of measurable growth results.

How Success Will Be Measured

Your success will be measured by your ability to drive sustainable growth in learners, enrolments, partnerships, community, and revenue.
