At Rethink Mental Illness, we believe everyone should be able to live a fulfilling life, regardless of how severely mental illness affects them. Our services are growing — and so is our ambition. That’s why we’re looking for a passionate and skilled Business Development Manager to help us shape the future of our charity and the support we provide.

About the role

• Working collaboratively with teams across Rethink Mental Illness, building strong relationships and creating connected ways of working.
• Supporting and managing Bid Development Officers.
• Contributing to regional business development plans and helping shape sustainable, innovative service models.
• Writing high‑quality, insightful submissions that articulate our strengths, capabilities, and lived‑experience approach.
• Developing early-stage budget models and working with Finance and HR to finalise financials ahead of submission.
• Generating insight through data, evidence, and internal expertise to create winning proposals.
• Researching competitors and identifying what makes Rethink Mental Illness stand out.
• Supporting successful bids through structured handovers and mobilisation.
• Contributing to continuous improvement through feedback, learning, and maintaining our Bid Library.

Why Rethink Mental Illness?

When you join us, you’re not just taking on a role — you’re becoming part of a movement.
A movement committed to improving the lives of people severely affected by mental illness through high‑quality services, innovation, and compassionate support.

You’ll be part of a collaborative, supportive team where your growth and wellbeing matter, and where your work has a clear, direct impact.

For the past 8 years, Just Finance Foundation has been growing our LifeSavers programme, bringing financial education to life in primary schools across the UK.

In 2025 alone, 135,809 of children across 551 schools had the opportunity to build essential money skills. It’s something we’re really proud of. But we’re not done yet.

We believe every child deserves the chance to grow up with confidence about money and we’re looking for someone who can help us reach many more classrooms.

The role

This is a unique opportunity for an experienced, hands-on digital marketer to shape how we connect with teachers across the UK.

Over the next two years, we’ll be:

• Supporting primary schools in England as they prepare for a new curriculum
• Expanding our reach across Scotland and the devolved nations

You’ll play a key role in making that happen: leading digital marketing activity that grows awareness of LifeSavers and inspires more teachers to take part.

Working with a collaborative and ambitious team, you’ll turn insight into action: building smart, effective campaigns and journeys that make it easy for teachers to discover, sign up, and get started.

What you will be doing (a summary)

• Design and deliver digital customer journeys for teachers from first awareness through to sign-up and early engagement
• Grow teacher participation by increasing high-quality leads, enquiries and sign-ups
• Plan, run and optimise digital campaigns across channels, including paid ads
• Improve how our content shows up in search, helping more teachers find what they need
• Use data and insights to continuously improve performance and make strategic decisions

About you

You’ll bring:

• Experience building and improving digital customer journeys (from awareness through to conversion and onboarding).
• Confidence managing key digital channels like social, web and email.
• Hands-on experience running successful paid digital campaigns.
• Strong analytical skills, using tools like Google Analytics to track and improve performance.
• Great organisation and a focus on delivering against targets.

Most importantly, you care about the impact of your work. You’re motivated by the chance to help children build skills that last a lifetime.

Why join us?

You’ll be part of a team that’s supportive, ambitious, and genuinely cares about making a difference.

This is a role where your ideas matter, your work has real impact, and your growth is supported every step of the way.

Together, we can make sure financial education becomes an everyday part of growing up.
