Head of Partnerships (Sales and Marketing)

*Role Closed*

Teacher Development Trust

Salary: £50,000 - £60,000

Location: Flexible, from home or office in London

Hours: Full Time

Closing Date: 5th November 2021

Founded by teachers and school leaders in 2012, the Teacher Development Trust (TDT) is the national charity for effective professional development in schools and colleges. We are dedicated to improving the educational outcomes of children by ensuring they experience the most effective learning.         

Alongside the leadership development services we offer schools and school leaders across England, we also act as champions for Continuing Professional Development, advocating its importance, working closely with policy makers, politicians, think tanks and educational organisations across the spectrum, in order to emphasise the lessons from research as well as build on the great practice that already exists.

TDT has been going through a period of rapid growth and expansion, fuelled by recently securing major new programmes and contracts alongside the continued growth of our national community of members. We are ambitious to harness this momentum to further extend our reach and impact.

This recent growth has allowed us to expand our Senior Leadership Team with the addition of this pivotal new role. We’re looking for a Head of Partnerships who can help us grow further, capitalising on TDT’s solid business development foundations and a respected reputation across the education sector.

Playing an active role in both strategic planning and delivery, the role will support our growth ambitions through further building our internal infrastructure and capacity around sales and marketing, including leading and supporting a dedicated team of both direct and matrix reports, whilst personally building and securing new business opportunities. We have an excellent track record of staff developing within the charity, so there is plenty of scope for this individual to build their career within the role and organisation as we grow.

The successful candidate will bring experience of securing partnerships and new business opportunities with a wide range of audiences within the education sector. You will also ideally have some relevant insight or experience of developing marketing communications via a range of channels. A strong sense of collaboration and sound leadership experience will be essential, alongside a commitment to our organisational values and mission.
