Team UK Team
Seniority Mid-level
Our outlook is global - we work with schools and universities all over the world, from the US to New Zealand, and from Italy to Hong Kong. We want to make it so that young people can compare every opportunity taught in English, wherever it is in the world, and have all the support they need to make successful applications.
We have a clear social purpose, and we're hugely ambitious. We already work with over half of UK secondary schools, and over a thousand international schools. We are growing rapidly in terms of the number of our customers, in terms of how much they use our platform, and in terms of the breadth of products we offer (check out this video to hear more about the Unifrog platform).
Our next exciting step is to start working with primary schools, helping them to deliver careers and the PSHE curriculum across all year groups in primary school. Together, we'll work to break down barriers, challenge stereotypes, and inspire children - especially those who may feel certain pathways are out of reach - when it comes to what their future might hold.
Our team is at the heart of our business and is integral to our success. We work hard to foster a culture of openness, happiness and innovation, and we commit to helping every individual learn and grow so that they can reach their full potential. We want to hire talented people, whatever their background. If you are excited by our mission and are ready to work hard, please don't hesitate to apply. We look forward to hearing from you!
We believe in the power of diversity. If you are from an ethnic minority background, we would like to strongly encourage you to apply. In advance of applying, if you have any questions about working at Unifrog, please contact .
What you'll do As one of our first Primary Schools Partnership Managers, you'll play a key role growing our newest partner base and supporting primary school partners to make the most of the Unifrog platform and resources. Excellent customer service is at the heart of what we do, and you'll make sure that all interactions with Unifrog are positive and successful.
Your key responsibilities:
Sell Unifrog subscriptions to primary schools
Design and deliver impactful prospecting campaigns and marketing collateral aimed at engaging potential new partners, tracking campaign performance and continually improving your approach to secure demonstrations and drive partnership growth.
Meet with potential partners on video calls (and sometimes in-person). Understand their priorities, demonstrate the Unifrog platform and resources, and secure their subscription.
Identify and attend conferences and events to promote Unifrog to primary school audiences, while networking and cultivating relationships for future partnership opportunities.
Develop a sound awareness of Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance (CEIAG) and the PSHE Association Framework within the UK. You'll need this to confidently navigate conversations with relevant contacts at primary schools.
Support primary school partners to make the most of Unifrog
Set up new partner schools for success. Help them to embed Unifrog across their staff, student and parent community. You'll deliver an initial staff training session then provide ad-hoc support.
Proactively work to foster a sense of community amongst our primary school partners and think of ways to promote the sharing and embedding of Unifrog best practice across between partners.
Achieve sky-high resubscription rates by securing partner renewals when their subscriptions come to an end.
What we're looking for Resilient, and motivated to exceed targets
Our sales and resubscription targets are achievable but ambitious. You'll need to be determined to meet and exceed them.
You'll be responsible for meeting sales targets so sales experience is desirable but not essential.
You'll be in frequent communication with lots of different people, both within Unifrog and externally - this will be in person, written, over the phone and via video call. You'll need to be an outstanding communicator.
Strategic and innovative
You'll be strategic in your approach to driving growth within the newest team at Unifrog, and be innovative and creative in your solutions to any barriers along the way.
Personable, with a track record of excellent relationship management
At Unifrog we're known for our excellent customer service. You'll need to provide fantastic support for your partner schools.
Sector insight
You will be working with schools that have different contexts and priorities; you'll need to be quick to understand how we can support them.
It's important you have the skills and discipline to carefully check your communications to schools, your prospects and contacts in your network.
Proactive attitude and willingness to get stuck in
You need to be excited about going beyond the core responsibilities detailed above to improve what we do and make it a success.
You will be one of the first members of our newest team at Unifrog, with the opportunity to be at the forefront of building an exciting and impactful offering for primary schools across the UK. If this excites you and you're an energetic person who is willing to learn, we'd love to hear from you.
Working together You'll work alongside one other Primary Schools Partnership Manager and be line managed by our Partnerships Director (UK schools and Employers). You will also have daily contact with the wider Unifrog team, including our Marketing, Content and Finance teams.
