Communications and Marketing Manager

Communications and Marketing Manager

The link between low income and low academic attainment is greater in the UK than almost any other developed nation. Children eligible for free school meals are less likely to get good GCSEs and go on to higher education. This makes it more likely they will struggle throughout their lives, widening social inequality. It’s a cycle that we’re determined to break.

We work with thousands of brilliant teachers, schools, universities and partners in England and Wales and we are seeking a fantastic Communications and Marketing Manager to join our team.

This role will have responsibility for increasing engagement with some of Teach First’s most critical audiences – our teachers, alumni of our programmes, and our funders. You will work closely with partner departments and Directorates – most notably Programme Delivery, Fundraising and Network Development. 

You will plan an overall strategy for communications for these audiences – identify the key moments within the year for each of them and how they can work in an integrated way to further organisational goals. In addition, and alongside the Creative and Content Team, you will provide frameworks to allow more bespoke communications to be developed by these partner departments themselves. You will help them speak to their audience with a brand and voice that is consistent with the charity’s brand identity.

You have a proven track record of developing communications and marketing campaigns and content strategies across a wide range of channels, and monitoring and evaluating these. In addition, you display strong planning and project management and written and verbal communications skills, and are adept at successfully managing relationships with content teams and creative agencies.  

Along with the satisfaction of knowing you are working for an organization who are making a real difference, you will also receive £37,544 per annum (with roles based in London receiving £3,000 London Weighting Allowance) & excellent benefits. 

The day when no child’s future is limited by their background is coming, yet, there is still more to be done. Join us and help us ensure every child in the UK has a fair shot at achieving their ambitions.
