The Company

We're partnered with a well-established UK education provider, currently expanding from maths into broader subject areas. The organisation creates high-quality teaching materials, digital tools, and training programs that support teachers from Early Years to GCSE and beyond. With strong adoption across schools nationwide and international growth into markets such as Australia and the UAE, it's an exciting time to join.

The Role

This Marketing Lead role has evolved from an SEO-focused position into a broader leadership role overseeing a team of three specialists. You'll bring hands-on expertise across key marketing channels while continuing to develop the organisation's SEO strategy, brand presence, and commercial impact. Reporting to the Head of Marketing, you'll play a pivotal part in shaping the marketing function during a period of rebrand and subject expansion.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and support a team of three marketing specialists across content, social, and general marketing.
  • Maintain and grow strong organic visibility (SEO) as the organisation expands into science education and international markets.
  • Oversee digital marketing activities across SEO, content, email, social, and paid channels.
  • Support ongoing rebranding efforts to establish a strong market presence across maths and science.
  • Build a content library that improves discoverability beyond current PDF-based resources.
  • Contribute to commercial growth strategies by aligning marketing with sales and product initiatives.
  • Explore innovative marketing applications of AI tools such as ChatGPT.
  • Collaborate closely with commercial teams to promote new and existing educational content.

Skills & Experience

  • Proven SEO expertise with experience managing large-scale organic visibility projects.
  • Broad digital marketing experience across multiple channels (content, email, social, paid).
  • Strong people leadership skills with experience managing and mentoring a small team.
  • Strategic thinker with ability to balance hands-on delivery and leadership responsibilities.
  • Experience in education or content-driven industries is desirable but not essential.
  • Familiarity with tools such as Google Search Console, Google Analytics, SEMrush, or Screaming Frog.

Benefits

  • £40,000-£50,000 base salary
  • Hybrid working - 1 day per week in Halifax, 1-2 additional days in either Halifax or Leeds
  • Opportunity to shape marketing during a pivotal rebrand and subject expansion
  • Autonomy to implement innovative strategies including AI-led initiatives
  • Collaborative, education-focused environment with real social impact
