Salary: £30,000 | Annual Leave: 39 days | Hours: Full-time | Term: Ongoing

As the Swimming Sales & Operations Manager, you will have responsibility for leading all aspects of Woodrow’s Swim School. Your principal focus is developing the strategic plan to secure new business sales of circa £350k p.a. You will be responsible for ensuring high quality experiences for all our swimmers, including local community groups which hire the pool. Customer relationship management will be key for you in this role.

With your hands-on experience of managing a busy Swim School operation, you will ensure that your swimming teachers are fully enabled to teach effectively and that everything runs smoothly.

You are passionate about swimming and will take a great interest in the quality of these experiences for young people, including those with additional needs. We expect that you will bring your own ideas as well as consult with your team – all with the aim of enhancing the swimmer’s experience. A high-quality operation is also one that is compliant with the health and safety and safeguarding standards required of a swimming pool and swim school environment.

You will lead the team of Swimming Teachers, Duty Managers and Lifeguards. You will also work with colleagues covering sales and marketing, outdoor learning operations, facilities, and finance. This role is also a member of the Woodrow senior management team, who are essential in supporting the Head of Woodrow to deliver our strategic objectives.

Our commitment to anti-racism

In July 2020, we issued a statement committing to become an anti-racist organisation and to actively tackle racism. Since then, London Youth has worked with our staff and trustees to understand first the issues within our organisation, collaboratively developing a Theory of Change to define our areas of focus, approach and plan of action moving forward.

We have a Race Equality Action Stakeholder Group which is chaired by a London Youth member and trustee. This group includes representatives from across the organisation and oversees the implementation of our Race Equality Action Plan.

At the heart of youth work is the drive to level the playing field for all young Londoners to succeed, regardless of their backgrounds. Over two thirds of the young people we work with are from racialised communities and we know that without the opportunities which youth organisations provide, there would be limited experiences open to them.

London Youth embraces equality, diversity and inclusion. We are committed to the ongoing development of an organisation that values and represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives and skills and welcome applications that reflect this.

RSPH is recruiting for a motivated, experienced and talented senior marketing professional to lead the development and growth of our marketing and communications output.  We are looking for an individual with experience across the marketing mix who is able to successfully harness insight to deliver commercial success and impact in our influence and voice. You will be equally at home leading on marketing strategy as you are focused on the delivery of the tactical detail.

In return you will have the opportunity to work for an organisation driven by purpose, values, passionate people and impact.

The Challenge

RSPH is the world’s oldest public health organisation, with 170 years of history and a Royal Charter.  We are currently developing our strategy and are at the beginning of a change process.

Our income is generated across a number of income streams including:

• Qualifications – we are an awarding body, working with over 600 Centres across the UK
• Our membership – over 6,000 members, with a quarter based outside the UK
• Our education products including journals, digital learning , conferences
• Corporate memberships
• Commissioned programmes in public health

Some of these income streams work across multiple markets, both B2B and B2C.  A number of these markets are challenging, both in the context of the pandemic and over the longer term.

You can find more details in our Annual Report

Job Purpose: To build and lead our marketing function

To do so, key activities will be:

• Develop and lead the marketing function for RSPH, working with the Commercial Director to drive growth in profitability that supports the impact we seek.
• Drive the development and implementation of the marketing communications strategy that supports the Business Plan (developed by the Commercial Director). 
• Lead the marketing communications, developing our brand messaging, manage our social media, advertising and SEO, driving our outbound campaigns.  Testing, measuring and analysing will allow you to develop insight into what works and what doesn’t for RSPH.
• Spearhead the development of our website, driven by customer and stakeholder need.  This will involve working across the organisation and, in particular, with the IT Manager and relevant suppliers.
• Support the development of our market, competitor, customer and business insight.
• Coach and develop one or two new Marketing Executives, supporting them to deliver successful collaterals and campaigns.

What you will bring:

• You will have a proven track record in marketing communications preferably, but not essentially, within the not-for-profit sector. 
• You will understand both B2B and B2C marketing and whist you may have specialised in one, you will be able to apply the marketing principles.  You will enjoy analysis and results as much as creativity.  You can balance the science and art that good marketing demands.
• Your diplomatic skills will help you succeed in a matrix environment.
• You will demonstrate an excellent understanding of the testing, reporting and analysis of marketing campaigns and be happy to be judged by your results.
• You will have designed and developed a database driven website which has multiple integrations.
• You will understand the responsibilities of a Manager, and will have developed or be developing leadership skills.
• You will relish the challenge of an underdeveloped marketing function, and have the drive, resilience, ambition to deliver strong results
• You will be able to test copywriting and creative approaches. You are able to undertake basic copywriting.  You are also likely to bring a contact book of copywriters and creatives.
• Ideally, you will have had success in qualifications, membership or education and an interest in public health.  We know you are unlikely to bring all of this – so an ability to learn quickly is a requirement.

In return we offer:

• Pension contributions
• 25 days annual leave
• Organisational commitment to supporting the health and wellbeing of our employees
• Flexible working hours and remote working opportunities
• Most importantly, the opportunity to change the world whilst working in a friendly team

RSPH values and actively strives to have a diverse and inclusive workforce in a working environment free from discrimination.

Your job description is a box for you to stand on rather than fit inside; on a weekly basis, you can be expect to be doing the following in this role:

Product Leadership

• Working with internal and external experts on potential solutions
• Creating and managing product roadmaps and prioritizing backlogs
• Using agile methodologies to manage project and product development

Stakeholder Management and Relationship Building

ESSENTIAL SKILLS

We are looking for an open and adaptable individual who has a background in internet technologies and user driven design and development. We’re looking for a generalist, someone who can spin a lot of plates and communicate well with the rest of the team. You should be a self-starter and a team player.

You’ll have a technical and conceptual understanding of technology generally. You think both strategically as well as tactically. You have a proven ability to work with technical staff and understand the details of their work. You have experience working in international and culturally diverse environments. We are looking for someone fluent in English, both verbal and written. An additional language would be a bonus for the work we do with European partners.

You are able to manage the full lifecycle of product development and can explain technical terms to less-technical people. If you’ve ever been told that you’re good at explaining and translating things between groups of people, this role will be perfect for you!

Nice to haves

Infrastructural understanding and experience — it would be great if you understand technical diagrams and can translate them into plain English.

Understanding of application and data integration — perhaps you’ve used APIs before to connect different services together.

Arts and culture enthusiast — we’re environmentalists and lovers of music, theatre, galleries, museums, and other cultural forms.

Age UK Bexley is in a period of growth and development, and is looking for someone with skills, knowledge and enthusiasm to help us build brand identity and resilience behind our digital and information services.

Who we are

We are charity with 30 staff and 70 volunteers, specialising in support to older people in the London Borough of Bexley. The charity has undergone considerable change in the last three years, with further development likely. Older people constitute a substantial part of Bexley's population and our mix of services and support are geared toward reaching as diverse a proportion of that population as possible.

We are an organisation that has worked hard to increase the diversity of those who work for us, volunteer for us and lead us as trustees. We continue to strive to challenge any barriers in the organisation that do not make us an inclusive and diverse one, particularly for those using our services.

To make us a more representative organisation we actively encourage those from Black Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds to consider us as a place to work and volunteer. This role is no different from any other within that context.

The Role

Information and digital development for the charity continues to be a prioirity in building brand, reaching new audiences and diversifying how people can access our services and support. Your role will be to build information and communications tools to improve audience reach and to widen the charity's use of digital technology to drive performance.

The charity also operates a volunteer-based information desk, which provides the principal information gateway into the charity’s services. You will work with the Administration and Office Systems Lead to ensure this service maintains its role at the principle point of access to the charity.

Who you are

You are someone who is enthusiastic about the contribution that older people play in creating a socially inclusive society. You will be someone who is able to think laterally about how a small charity can punch above its weight in how it uses modern media, communications and digital information tools to drive participation, acess and support

You may be a recent graduate looking for an opportunity to develop your skills and awareness of the sector and its demands.

You are a good communicator with an ability to turn over work quickly and interprete the needs of collegues who may not be as able as you in shaping ideas for a public audience.

On top of your salary, we offer a work-based pension and employers’ contribution of 6%. We also provide free access to independent counselling and a generous allowance for annual leave.
