We’re looking for a creative and data-driven Product Marketing and Engagement Manager to strengthen how schools and staff connect with our products, particularly the Boxall Profile® Online and our wider nurture-based professional learning and recognition product offerings.
You’ll lead campaigns and engagement strategies that grow adoption and retention across our user base, working closely with product managers, the communications team, and partners. This role sits at the heart of translating our mission into action and helping schools see, use, and value nurtureuk’s evidence-based tools.

With increasing numbers of children and young people affected by social, emotional and behavioural difficulties inhibiting their progress and limiting their life chances, nurtureuk has developed a range of interventions and support to give vulnerable children and young people the opportunity to be the best they can be.
With the continued school attendance crisis, rise in exclusions and misunderstood behaviour support, the need for our work has never been greater, and the potential is clear. We have a dedicated team, trustees, and a CEO who is passionate about education and the development of young people.
Reporting to the Director of Products and Services, you’ll take ownership of developing and delivering marketing and engagement strategies that strengthen our product portfolio and deepen relationships with our customers.
You’ll work closely with Product Managers and the External Relations team to plan and deliver targeted campaigns, design engaging content, and improve how our products are positioned, experienced, and valued by schools and practitioners.
Your main duties will be in five main areas:
- Designing and delivering regular marketing activity and campaigns
- Product positioning and messaging
- Content and collateral development
- Designing and delivering email and other engagement activity for existing and new customers
- Customer engagement and retention
