Join Voice 21 and amplify every child’s voice!

Voice 21, the UK’s leading oracy education charity, is on a mission to transform lives through talk, ensuring every child thrives in school and beyond. We’re seeking a dynamic Head of Growth to drive our ambitious goal of partnering with 1,800 schools by 2030, with a focus on schools serving disadvantaged communities.

Remote Working

Salary - up to £50 000 p/a

The Role

As Head of Growth, you will be at the forefront of shaping our sales, marketing, and events, developing our business development strategy to expand our reach and impact. 

Responsibilities will include:

• Lead with vision: Set ambitious sales and marketing goals to deliver our 5-Year Strategy, targeting 600 Centres of Excellence and 1,200 annual members.

• Drive growth: Build high-impact sales funnels, oversee multi-channel marketing campaigns, and optimize our HubSpot CRM to create seamless buyer journeys.

• Inspire teams: Lead our Growth team (Sales, Marketing, Events) with passion, fostering their development and collaborating across departments to launch innovative offers.

• Make an impact: Focus on engaging schools in high-need areas and secure multi-year partnerships with Multi-Academy Trusts and Local Authorities.

 

Who You Are

• A proven leader with expertise in sales or marketing (ideally both) and a track record of managing high-volume, complex sales funnels.

• A digital expert with advanced CRM experience (HubSpot preferred) and a knack for data-driven decision-making.

• Passionate about education equity and comfortable in mission-driven or public sector settings.

• A collaborative, empathetic communicator ready to inspire teams and stakeholders.

• Bonus but not essential: Experience in education, MATs, or event-driven organisations.

Work from Anywhere

This is a home-based role with occasional travel to our London office (near Victoria station) and schools nationwide. Travel and accommodation expenses are covered.

Voice 21 is proud to be a diverse, inclusive workplace. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds to join our mission to ensure every voice is heard.

The Education Access Coordinator will equip young asylum seekers and refugees to access further (FE) and higher education (HE) through advice and guidance, 1:1 casework and training for other professionals. 

This role sits within the Education Access team: everything we do is focussed on supporting young refugees and asylum seekers into an appropriate form of education from primary school right the way up to university.

The team is separated into three work streams: access to schools, access to FE and access to HE. We also run a national email and telephone advice service through which young people, their families and the professionals who support them, can receive timely and accurate advice and support about any aspect of accessing education in the UK.

This role straddles the access to FE and HE streams of work and, although it would be helpful to have some experience of working in these sectors, our experience is that this knowledge can be taught and is not as important to us as other qualities and experience.

The successful candidate will, however, need to be able to understand and retain a great deal of complex information and then clearly articulate this to others both verbally and in writing. The ideal candidate would be someone who would relish becoming an expert in refugee access to FE and HE and would enjoy the problem solving element of navigating complex regulations to find the right solution for an individual struggling to access education. 

The successful candidate will also need to have experience of and enjoy working with vulnerable young people both individually and in groups. A key element of this role is ongoing casework with individuals - where you will need to build a supportive and trusting relationship over the long term - alongside running one-off workshops for large groups where the priority is to quickly gain young people’s confidence and attention. 

Finally, the successful candidate will be responsible for representing REUK’s access pillar externally.  You will co-deliver training to a high standard as well as maintaining relationships with key stakeholders including local authorities, FE colleges, universities and other NGOs - it is therefore imperative that you have excellent people skills.

This role can be done 4 or 5 days per week, depending on preference (salary would be pro rata for 4 days).
