Aula, UK. Ed Perryman has joined Aula as Engagement Partner, where he will work closely with senior leadership at their growing number of UK and global university partners. Leveraging technology similar to platforms such as WhatsApp, Messenger, and Slack, Aula is a communication platform for education that replaces learning management systems, reduces email communication, and drives student engagement in an institution’s ‘digital campus’. Ed joins a stellar team that has grown from six to over 40 in the past 12 months alone. He brings with him over 10 years of sales and management experience in education, having previously worked for OISE, Cambridge Education Group, and most recently Astrum Education, where as Sales & Marketing Director he spearheaded a successful change management program and led the launch to market of Kensington Park School. Ed states: “I’m so excited to have joined what I believe to be the most innovative company in EdTech, and to be part of Aula’s mission to improve millions of student experiences.”
