SUMMARY

The Sales Manager, Partnership Schools is the commercial owner of the East Coast Partnership Schools territory, responsible for opening new multi locations partner schools and growing revenue within an existing portfolio of partner accounts. Operating much like a Key Account Manager, this is a field-based selling role: the majority of time is spent on the road, in schools, in front of owners and decision-makers, and at industry events, building the relationships and executing the programs that make dermalogica the premier partner line in esthetic and cosmetology education.

This role owns the full commercial cycle for the region: prospecting and signing new partnership schools in collaboration with the local field sales team, driving consistent student kit and wholesale retail reorders in existing accounts, executing the promotional and education calendar, and representing dermalogica at tradeshows, conferences, and school events across the East Coast.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

New School Acquisition (Open New Doors)

• Own the full sales cycle for new partnership schools: from prospecting school owners and corporate decision-makers through pitch, negotiation, and contract signing.

• Deliver compelling in-person pitches using Dermalogica’s value proposition, new account opening packages, and partner engagement tools.
• Partner with marketing and education teams to align acquisition strategy with go-to-market execution and onboarding.

• Lead in-person Quarterly Business Reviews with top schools, presenting performance, opportunities, and joint growth plans.
• Execute the promotional and marketing calendar within the territory, ensuring schools activate programs fully and on time.
• Partner with the Partnership Schools education lead to align commercial goals with classroom training, ensuring schools successfully implement dermalogica protocols and concepts.

Field & Event Presence

• Spend the majority of working time in the field: school visits, prospect meetings, ride-alongs, and events, with a structured territory routing and call cadence.
• Represent dermalogica at East Coast tradeshows, beauty conferences, skin health panels, career fairs, and vocational school networking events to build brand presence and pipeline.
• Conduct field visits alongside Business Consultants and District Managers to strengthen local relationships and support post-graduation account conversion.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Coordinate with District Managers and field Business Consultants to maximize local brand visibility and ensure graduate placement converts into professional account growth.
• Maintain and update selling tools and resources for the field sales team related to the Partnership Schools channel.
• Share market, competitor, and school-industry insights with sales leadership to inform channel strategy.

Pipeline Management & Reporting
