You will handle school enquiries, maintain CRM data, manage user accounts, and support the delivery of school communications and helpdesk services. You’ll also contribute to the systems that underpin our delivery, bringing order, insight, and efficiency to the heart of our operations
This is a full-time, home-based role (35 hours per week), but we are open to applications on a job-share basis. Whether full-time or part-time, you’ll work closely with our collaborative and mission-driven team, combining independent responsibility with shared support.
We’re looking for someone who thrives in a remote working environment - highly organised, people-focused, and committed to excellence in service. If you’re proactive, adaptable, and inspired by Ten Ten’s mission to support Catholic education, we’d love to hear from you.
Responsibilities
As Schools Support Officer, you’ll play a vital role in supporting schools and ensuring the smooth running of our operations. Your key responsibilities will include:
Client Support
-
Act as the first point of contact for school enquiries across email, phone, voicemail and webchat.
-
Respond to queries, resolve user issues, and provide quotes for subscriptions and trials.
-
Triage communication to the relevant team member, where needed.
CRM & Data Management
Maintain the accuracy and integrity of our CRM (HubSpot), including:

Place of Work
This is a home-based role, open to candidates based in the UK. The successful candidate will work remotely as part of Ten Ten’s home-based team.
The role is full-time (35 hours per week), typically worked across Monday to Friday. However, we are open to applications on a job-share basis, where two individuals work together to fulfil the responsibilities of the role. While there is some flexibility in working hours, availability is expected during core daytime hours to ensure collaboration with colleagues and timely support for schools.
We meet weekly as a team on Zoom to share updates, collaborate on projects, and pray together. In addition, we gather in person at least three times per year - typically once per term - for planning, training and team-building. These in-person gatherings usually involve overnight stays and are held at various locations around the UK.
We welcome applicants from across the UK who can commit to regular online engagement and travel for termly in-person meetings.
Person Specification
At Ten Ten, we believe that the Schools Support Officer isn’t just another role - it’s a vital presence that helps knit together our mission across hundreds of schools. We’re looking for someone who thrives in a remote working environment - someone who takes pride in being highly organised, attentive to detail, and ready to solve problems before they arise. You enjoy connecting with others through digital channels, build rapport easily, and are committed to providing exceptional support to both colleagues and partner schools.
The kind of person we’re looking for:
Essentials – you are:
Warm, welcoming, and professional – You have a friendly and reassuring tone in all interactions. You make people feel heard and supported.
Highly organised and detail-oriented – You keep multiple plates spinning and ensure nothing gets dropped. You catch the typo, notice the missing email, and follow up before anyone else does.
A proactive problem-solver – You take initiative. You investigate, ask good questions, and make things happen. You know when to act independently and when to consult others.
Resourceful and adaptable – You navigate new systems and shifting priorities with ease. You find solutions, even when no manual exists.
Strong communicator – You write clearly and speak confidently. You know how to communicate with school staff, teachers, and your internal team with warmth and clarity.
Tech-comfortable and willing to learn – You’re already confident with basic digital tools and eager to learn new ones. You might not know HubSpot or our CMS yet, but you’re curious, capable, and ready to learn.
Able to prioritise effectively in a busy environment – You can spot what’s urgent versus what’s important, and you keep things moving forward while staying focused on the big picture.
Desirable – it’s a bonus if you:
-
Have experience supporting schools, education settings or customer service environments.
-
Are familiar with project management tools, content management platforms (CMS), or customer relationship management (CRM) systems.
-
Have experience supporting content updates, light marketing tasks, or school-facing comms.
-
Have worked in a small, fast-paced organisation where self-direction was essential.
We’re looking for someone who:
-
Is observant and engaged – spots the detail, the discrepancy, or the quiet ask behind the email.
-
Has a ‘get stuck in’ mentality – you’re not afraid to roll up your sleeves and help out wherever needed.
-
Is confident taking the lead when needed – actively shaping processes and offering support.
-
Values teamwork and collaboration, but can also work independently and manage their own time well.
-
Understands that while systems are important, people always come first—how they feel in their interaction with you matters.
Your cover letter should be a max 1.5 pages and include:
Why you are interested in the role.
How your experience and qualities align with the Person Specification.
Any preference or proposal regarding a job-share arrangement (if applicable).
We nurture spiritual growth, personal development and social responsibility by sharing inspiring, creative media content through a Catholic lens.
