Job description

Role: Partnerships Director

Location: Hybrid - London/home - regular travel to London office and client events across the UK. 

Salary: £65k-£80k

Demand for our specialist tutoring programmes for Children Looked After, those with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and Unaccompanied Asylum Seeking Children (UASC) continues to increase and we are seeking an excellent addition to our team to support the increased demand for our provision and to support the continued scaling of our organisation.

The Organisation

Equal Education is a social enterprise working to improve outcomes and narrow the attainment gap for disadvantaged and vulnerable learners, including Children Looked After, those with SEND, and unaccompanied asylum seeking children. We have 12 years’ experience delivering 1:1 tuition, working with hundreds of schools and Local Authority partners across the country, reaching hundreds of pupils annually. 

As a member of the Fair Education Alliance, we believe in providing meaningful educational provision to students whose needs may not be best met within a traditional classroom environment, those who aren’t currently accessing education, or who benefit from additional 1:1 support. We work with qualified teachers to provide academic, subject specialised and individual tutoring and mentoring for children of all ages. Tutors provide pastoral care and work with pupils to increase engagement and attainment. Our programmes allow students to overcome barriers to learning, help them build trusted relationships, increase their aspirations, and fulfil their potential. We are passionate about our cause and are looking for people who are motivated by a strong desire to address educational inequality and improve outcomes. 

This role will be suited to those who have held roles such as: Headteacher, Assistant/Deputy Head Teacher, Inclusion Team Manager, Head of Service, Virtual School Head, SEND Manager, Commissioning Manager, Educational Consultant. 

The Role

As our Partnerships Director, you will be at the forefront of driving organisational growth, leading our sales and procurement strategy, and positioning Equal Education as a thought leader in the education sector.

We are seeking an innovative and strategic Partnerships Director to lead our sales, procurement, and thought leadership strategy as we scale our impactful programmes for Children Looked After, students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), and Unaccompanied Asylum-Seeking Children (UASC). This pivotal role is suited to an experienced professional with deep expertise in public sector procurement, tendering, and B2B/B2G sales, alongside a passion for addressing educational inequality.

A natural communicator, the post-holder will understand the challenges faced by our School and Local Authority Partners. They will be quick to pick up the phone or meet with our valued clients face-to-face, in order to find solutions that work for all and ensure we can deliver our high-quality programmes to students. 

Key Responsibilities:

  1. Strategic Leadership

    • Develop and execute the organisation’s sales, procurement, and partnership strategy to align with growth goals.

  2. Tendering and Procurement

    • Collaborate with internal teams to align service offerings with market needs.

  4. Thought Leadership

    • Represent Equal Education at conferences, panels, and events as a keynote speaker or panellist.

    • Position the organisation as a leader in education innovation and policy through public engagements and publishing thought leadership pieces.

  5. Operational Oversight

    • Work closely with programme delivery teams to ensure partnership agreements translate into impactful services.

    • Provide strategic oversight on the commercial aspects of partnership agreements.

Key Deliverables:

Within 3 Months:

  • Develop a clear, actionable sales and procurement strategy aligned with organisational goals.

  • Lead the submission of multiple high-quality tenders, achieving at least one significant new contract win.

  • Represent Equal Education at a minimum of two key conferences or industry events, positioning the brand as a thought leader.

  • Strengthen B2B and B2G partnerships, expanding the organisation’s network and influence.

Within 12 Months:

  • Achieve measurable growth in revenue and programme delivery through new partnerships.

  • Expand Equal Education’s presence into at least one new region or territory.

  • Build and implement a long-term thought leadership strategy, including regular speaking engagements and published insights.

Skills and Experience Required:

  • Expertise in Public Sector Procurement: Proven experience in writing and winning tenders, with a deep understanding of procurement frameworks in the education sector.

  • Sales Leadership: Extensive experience in B2B and B2G sales, with a track record of achieving growth targets.
