  • Design and deliver digital customer journeys for teachers from first awareness through to sign-up and early engagement

  • Grow teacher participation by increasing high-quality leads, enquiries and sign-ups

  • Plan, run and optimise digital campaigns across channels, including paid ads

  • Improve how our content shows up in search, helping more teachers find what they need

  • Use data and insights to continuously improve performance and make strategic decisions

what success will look like in 12 months

  • Digital customer journeys for teachers developed, approved, and executed across relevant channels.

  • More teachers discovering, engaging with, and signing up to our programmes (realistic targets aligned with available budget).

You’ll bring:

  • Experience building and improving digital customer journeys (from awareness through to conversion and onboarding).

  • Confidence managing key digital channels like social, web and email.

  • Hands-on experience running successful paid digital campaigns.

  • Strong analytical skills, using tools like Google Analytics to track and improve performance.

  • Great organisation and a focus on delivering against targets.

Most importantly, you care about the impact of your work. You’re motivated by the chance to help children build skills that last a lifetime.

why join us?

You’ll be part of a team that’s supportive, ambitious, and genuinely cares about making a difference.

This is a role where your ideas matter, your work has real impact, and your growth is supported every step of the way.

Together, we can make sure financial education becomes an everyday part of growing up.
