Who are we?
Art Fund is the national fundraising charity for art. With over 142,000 members, we are leading the way in pioneering support for an inclusive and welcoming museum and gallery sector across the UK.
We work closely with a network of 900 museums and respond to their needs and aspirations. We're excited to see how they want to develop: to expand and diversify their collections and workforce, develop curatorial skills, make ambitious acquisitions, and create a welcoming, inclusive space for communities. With the support of over 140,000 members who buy a National Art Pass, patrons, and donors we can provide grants, encourage visiting and advocate for museums' essential role and value.
We have diversity, inclusion, and sustainability central to our thinking and the opportunity to be a force for good, galvanise support and help change things for the better inspires our team.
The role
Art Fund is seeking an experienced marketing and brand leader to start immediately, providing senior leadership and continuity for our youth-focused membership programmes, Student Art Pass and Teacher Art Pass, supporting the Head of Youth Programmes as we enter a busy year with the development and implementation of a new CRM (Salesforce).
As Youth Marketing Lead you’ll support a strategic marketing programme designed to connect a diverse new generation with UK museums and galleries.

As a leading voice in the membership team, you’ll help drive the growth and evolution of the Teacher Art Pass and Student Art Pass, shaping future products and propositions — including our ambition to expand the pass to wider youth audiences.
You’ll also play a key leadership role across Art Fund — guiding a talented team, collaborating with colleagues across Digital, Programmes and Development, and contributing to major organisational projects including our CRM transformation.
The responsibilities of the role will flex over the contract period in line with organisational priorities and the availability of the Head of Youth Marketing. The postholder will take a lead on agreed areas of work, while ensuring that strategic oversight and continuity are maintained.

- Build sustainable business models and manage budgets, reporting and forecasting
What you’ll bring
- Proven success delivering multi-channel campaigns for youth, student, membership or subscription audiences
- Experience leading product development or evolution, from insight gathering to proposition refinement, and contributing to long-term strategic planning that delivers sustainable audience and income growth
- Experience using data, insight and segmentation to drive marketing decisions and optimise customer journeys
- Strong understanding of CRM, lifecycle marketing and retention strategies
- Experience managing budgets, forecasting and building sustainable programme models
- Confident leadership skills with experience developing teams and managing agencies
