Job description
**About the Opportunity**
Syndeou is building Lrnsy EOS, a human\-led, AI\-supported education and human development operating system designed for schools, universities and corporate learning environments.
Lrnsy is not a standard EdTech tool, learning app or content platform. It is an institutional operating system that helps organisations understand learners, students and employees more deeply, structure development pathways, support human decision\-making and build long\-term capability in a world increasingly shaped by AI.
We are now looking for a senior fractional commercial leader to help convert our existing pipeline, warm contacts and strategic conversations into signed commercial outcomes.
**The Role**
We are seeking a **Fractional Chief Commercial Officer / Strategic Partnerships Lead** who can step into an active pipeline and help move opportunities forward quickly.
This role is not about building a pipeline from scratch. Syndeou already has school, university, corporate, and strategic partner conversations underway, supported by prepared commercial materials and target pipelines.
The priority is to assess what is already live, identify the strongest opportunities, support senior conversations, and move priority prospects toward clear outcomes.
**Ideal Candidate**
* We are looking for someone senior, credible and commercially mature.
* The right person should have experience in one or more of the following:
* Schools or school groups.
* Universities or higher education.
* Government or public\-sector education.
* Enterprise learning and workforce development.
* Institutional SaaS.
* Strategic partnerships.
* Channel partnerships.
* AI, cloud, workplace technology or digital transformation.
* Relevant previous roles may include Chief Commercial Officer, Sales Director, Strategic Partnerships Director, Enterprise Sales Lead, EdTech Commercial Lead, University Partnerships Lead or Channel Partnerships Lead.
* The strongest candidate will understand both education and enterprise, because Lrnsy’s long\-term opportunity crosses schools, universities and corporates.
**What This Role Requires**
* The person appointed must be able to:
* Understand a complex product quickly.
* Work with an existing pipeline and live relationship routes.
* Turn warm introductions into structured commercial next steps.
* Support founder\-led conversations at senior level.
* Help close LOIs, pilots, demonstration agreements or early commercial commitments.
* Protect the strategic positioning of Lrnsy.
* Work with discipline, discretion and commercial judgement.
* Operate without heavy daily management.
* This is a role for someone who can move from understanding to action quickly.
