Education Counsellor

Role

Academic Sales

Cinema Factory Academy is Chennai’s premier launchpad for the next generation of filmmaking, cinematography, direction,acting, editing, and media professionals. We bridge the gap between creative passion and industry reality. As the media and entertainment industry booms, our courses are in high demand—and we need a high-performing sales engine to turn passionate aspirants into enrolled students.

The Role

We are looking for a relentless, high-energy Inside Sales & Admissions Specialist who thrives on a target-driven environment. This is not a passive counseling role; this is a fast-paced sales position with target based from Day 1. Your primary mission is to convert inbound leads, handle walk-in inquiries, consult with aspiring artists/parents, and close admissions to hit our monthly batch targets.

If you are motivated by money, love the thrill of closing a deal, and want to sell something people are genuinely passionate about (Cinema!), this is your playground.

What You’ll Do

Drive Conversions: Actively call high-intent inbound leads (generated from our social media and ad campaigns) to pitch our premium film and media courses.

Consultative Closing: Guide aspiring students and their parents through the curriculum, handle objections smoothly, and create a sense of urgency to lock in admissions.

Pipeline Management: Maintain a clean, daily follow-up pipeline. Move leads aggressively through the funnel from initial contact to fee payment.

Hit Targets

Consistently meet or exceed weekly and monthly admission quotas set by the academy.

Walk-In Management: Host prospective students at our academy campus, giving them a compelling tour that builds value and drives immediate on-the-spot enrollment.

What We’re Looking For (Requirements)

The Closer Mindset: Proven track record in EdTech sales, course admissions, insurance, or premium inside sales where you consistently hit targets.

Communication Powerhouse: Flawless negotiation and persuasive communication skills in Tamil and English. You must know how to connect with young creatives as well as convince traditional parents.

Objection Handling

Ability to confidently handle price resistance, timing objections, and career anxieties to close the sale.

Resilience

A thick skin and a positive attitude. You treat a "No" as just a stepping stone to a "Yes."

Media Savvy (Plus): A general interest in cinema, media, or television is a massive advantage, as it helps you speak the students' language effortlessly.

Achieving Target From Day 1

What’s In It For You?

Uncapped Incentives: A secure base salary paired with an aggressive, performance-linked incentive structure. The more admissions you close, the more you earn.

Dynamic Environment

Rub shoulders with filmmaking professionals, directors, and artists in a highly energetic academy atmosphere.

Career Growth

Fast-track your career into Sales Management as we expand our course offerings and academy footprint.
