Please read about our company, mission, and core values below:
Harkla has one mission: Help families raise happy and healthy children with special needs.
This mission is at the core of everything we do. Every decision is centered around the question of “how does this help our customers?”
We try to accomplish this through:
The way we differentiate ourselves from our competition is by always asking, how can we be more helpful? In customer service, our blog, or post-purchase information, we want to be more helpful.
Harkla's Core Principles:
Harkla is a highly autonomous, hard-working group of people trying to change the world of special needs for the better. This is a great environment for hungry, self-starters who want the ability to learn, grow, and make a large social impact.
This is not a great environment for people who want a comfortable, repeatable, straightforward job, and don’t want the responsibility that comes with a flexible, autonomous work position.
Make sure to explore our website and content so you are familiar with our company:
We’re hiring a Sales Development Representative (SDR) to drive revenue from our K-12 school channel. You’ll take ownership of Harkla’s school sales pipeline—from nurturing inbound leads to reviving past accounts to launching targeted outreach campaigns.
You’ll use tools like Pipedrive and Apollo to move deals forward and coordinate with our CEO to close high-value opportunities. If you’re detail-oriented, great at follow-through, and excited by mission-driven work that impacts kids across the U.S., this could be a great fit.
