Do your best work, for the right reasons.

We’re looking for an experienced partnerships manager to play a key role in driving Oak's growth and impact by increasing adoption of its resources across schools and Multi Academy Trusts. This is a highly collaborative role, combining strong education sector insight with a proactive, target-driven approach to partnership development.

You will work with colleagues across the organisation to generate and qualify opportunities through events, networks, referrals, and outreach, building a focused pipeline aligned to shared priorities. Through structured discovery conversations, you’ll develop a clear understanding of school needs, readiness, and strategic fit, helping shape how we engage and support partners.

You will assess and triage opportunities against agreed criteria, working closely with subject and curriculum leads to prioritise those with the greatest potential for impact and influence, and to determine where we focus our efforts.

Alongside this, you’ll build trusted relationships with educators, growing a network of 'champion' schools that support peer learning and community engagement.

You’ll maintain clear pipeline visibility through accurate CRM management and data-led insight, using this to inform decisions and drive continuous improvement. Working cross-functionally, you’ll share learnings from the field to influence messaging, product development, and how Oak delivers for schools.

Oak is a fully remote, mission-driven organisation offering high levels of flexibility, autonomy, and purpose. We’re a national not-for-profit organisation working in partnership with teachers to create high-quality, sequenced curriculum and lesson resources for pupils across all subjects and age groups.

• Build and nurture relationships with user schools to develop Oak champions, and organise in-person and online community events (e.g. webinars, group INSET, local cluster meetings), including representing Oak at relevant in-person events and school visits.

• As a member of the Oak Team, contribute to the planning and culture of the organisation.

• Work in cross-functional and product-oriented squads with colleagues from across the organisation, as required.

• Deputise for the Partnerships Lead and take on other general responsibilities as required.

�� What We’re Looking For

• 3+ years of experience managing direct relationships with schools and/or Multi Academy Trusts.

• Experience leading structured conversations with decision-makers to conversion in a business or product context.

• Strong organisational skills and CRM discipline.

• Practical understanding of product/service adoption processes in schools.

• Motivated by long-term adoption and impact.
