Reporting to the Head of Supporter Engagement, the Supporter Journeys Manager is responsible for both managing our Dynamics 365 marketing platform (both processes and data) and working across all FundComm teams to create and support delivery of a cohesive automated Supporter Journeys Strategy.

Having recently moved to a new CRM Dynamics 365, which also includes a new email and SMS marketing platform, we now have access to improved functionality for automated Journeys. The Supporter Journey Manager is a new role to support our ambitious FundComm goals around growth, income and engagement, fully utilising the potential of the new platform, as well as overseeing the testing program on all our website and online conversion forms. 

Though primarily a digital focused role, the overall objective of the role is to ensure all journeys are designed to best meet FundComm overall goals while providing an optimal supporter experience. This will be done through creation of a Journey Strategy and plan for audience-led journeys across all channels, asks and platforms. As well as being responsible for design and delivery of some of the key journeys, it also involves an advisory and governance role for all FundComm automated journeys and online forms, ensuring they’re designed to maximise engagements, income and conversions along each stage in Brooke’s Engagement funnel 

Criteria 

The role requires working collaboratively across FundComm using Brooke’s project management principles, with line management of the Supporter Engagement & Experience Officer and Senior Journeys Officer who manages the online landing page and forms testing program. The role ensures all existing and future journeys are mapped and documented, and creating a cross-team process to test, share learning and optimise them on an ongoing basis.

We’re looking for someone who is organised and will enjoy coordinating workshops and ideas generation to recommend plans for which new journeys should be built, inspiring teams with training on best practice in journey design and copywriting.

We offer a variety of flexible working options to best support our staff and to ensure our working practices are as inclusive as possible. 

Closing date: 19th January 2025 (this role may close early depending on the response) 

Are you passionate about equality of access to education for people seeking asylum and refugees?

Yet refugees and people seeking asylum in the UK face significant challenges in accessing higher education, including restrictive policies, limited financial support, difficulty navigating the complex university system, and a lack of adequate information and guidance. 

We are looking for a dedicated and skilled individual to lead our work on improving access to higher education for refugees and people seeking asylum. In this role, you will empower activists, collaborate with universities, and drive sector-wide change to ensure that more refugees can access life-changing opportunities at university.

You’ll need excellent knowledge of the challenges facing refugees in the UK, particularly around access to higher education, as well as experience working in or with the higher education sector. You’ll also bring excellent communication and relationship-building skills, ideally a proven track record in policy or campaign work. Highly organised and motivated, you’ll be comfortable working independently and collaborating flexibly within a small, dynamic team.

If you’re committed to breaking down barriers to education and making a tangible difference, we’d love to hear from you.

Please feel free to use information and resources on their website which may help in preparing your job application.
