EdWest is a Perth based educational company, owned by three WA teachers, that has been operating for the past 12 years, mainly in the areas of educational assessment. In recent years, the company has begun reselling a range of educational software and hardware. The key hardware range EdWest resells is the mimio range of portable IWB’s and accessories. We are looking to appoint a WA metro based sales representative.

MimioTeach is a portable low cost device that attaches to any whiteboard or to virtually any other surface, connects to a PC and when used with a data projector, allows users to control desktop applications and documents directly from the whiteboard. Users can save substantial money over the cost of fixed systems, retain existing board space and still have a device that is portable.

EdWest has several positions available to demonstrate our educational technologies to schools, colleges and training organisations. Primarily this will be using our mimio range of hardware, which include mimioteach and its associated document camera, voting systems and white board capture.

This position would suit a teacher who is retired, part time or on leave, as a requirement will be the ability to run demonstration sessions during school hours, for about 40 minutes, to small groups of teachers/trainers and also at various local educational conferences. No previous sales experience is necessary, but teaching experience is, as is an interest in and understanding of information technology. Both primary and secondary teachers are encouraged to apply.

 

Although it is not a requirement that teachers have any experience of the use of interactive whiteboards, it is highly desirable.

The position has a very broad brief as we are looking for someone that is friendly and outgoing and can engage others in our vision. Your role will be to demonstrate our products to retail clients. You will need to be mobile as all presentations will take place at the clients address, although there will be a great deal of flexibility in the timing of presentations. You will have the ability to maintain, implement and add your ideas to the presentations.

The successful applicant will enjoy building relationships and bringing new ideas to the role. A sense of humour would assist you in your presentations and exemplary communication skills are mandatory. Strong computer skills are essential and a working knowledge of MS Office is needed. You will require your own laptop computer. Applicants are encouraged to have a look at the mimio section of our website to familiarise themselves with mimio, as well as the mimio site in the US.

Remuneration is excellent and will essentially be on a commission basis with ta small retainer. For further information about the position, applicants can phone Reg Reberger on 0411 773804.

Applications, including a CV and covering letter can be emailed to Reg Reberger at regreberger@edwest.com.au as soon as possible. Interviews will be held in Perth.
