Unifrog’s mission
 

We’re on a mission to level the playing field when it comes to young people finding and applying for their next step after school. We're achieving this by bringing all the available information into one single, impartial, user-friendly platform that helps students to make the best choices, and submit the strongest applications. We also empower teachers and counsellors to manage the progression process effectively.
 

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 hundreds of 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 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.
 

Employer partnerships at Unifrog

Unifrog provides employers with a comprehensive talent attraction and development offering, with a holistic approach to our partnerships. The Employer Partnerships team brings local and international employers closer to our Unifrog schools, students and teachers. We focus on three key areas:

1. Building brand awareness
2. Increasing talent attraction and/or diversity of hires for apprenticeship opportunities
3. Supporting corporate social responsibility 

This allows employers to centralise their engagement with the future workforce via one partnership. 

This is the newest element of the Unifrog team and since starting work with employers in March 2022, we’re now partnered with over 110 organisations from across all sectors and industries to support them with their talent attraction and brand awareness. 

We’re increasing growth through providing unique tailored partnerships for employers; from partnerships that centre around a virtual course to support students in developing their skills (while increasing brand awareness), to partnering with Unifrog schools in areas of high levels of disadvantage via our school sponsorship programme, which brings outstanding careers guidance and networking opportunities with employers and universities to the students, schools and parents/carers who need it most.

The role and your key responsibilities

As Employer Partnerships Manager, your role is to grow our employer partner numbers and support our existing employer partners to get the most out of their partnership with us. A fundamental element of our work with employers is to make sure they’re adding genuine value to our student, teacher and parent community. 

Your key responsibilities will include:

• Make sales to employers:
  • Working with our New Business Lead and the wider Employer team, you’ll secure and conduct meetings with employers in which you’ll listen to their needs, communicate our mission to them, demonstrate our offering and seek to secure their ongoing subscription. External events and conferences are a regular part of the role where you may also be required to deliver presentations and be part of panel discussions.

• Maintain excellent relationships with existing partners and secure their subscriptions

  • You’ll onboard new partners, conduct regular check-in calls and consultatively support our employer partners to make the most of their partnership with us. It’s crucial that you maintain a sky-high resubscription rate.

• Delivering our existing services for partner employers

  • As the partnerships manager for your employers, you would be responsible for delivering on the different aspects of the partnership, including:

• Matching campaigns

  • Support your partners to identify events and opportunities they’re running that will be of interest to students using Unifrog, and work with our Employer Engagement Coordinator to add them to our system.

• Webinars, online fairs and in-person events

  • These events are another way for our partner employers to interact with our community of students and teachers. From virtual careers fairs, skill development webinars to in-person insights days, we strive for all our events to be useful, impactful and enjoyable for everyone taking part.

• Help develop new ways for our employer partners to add and receive value

  • The employer offering is continually evolving, and we’re keen to keep adding more ways in which we can add value for students and teachers using the Unifrog platform, and value to our employer partners as well. At Unifrog, we innovate quickly, and it’s everyone’s job to be creative. We want you to play your part in coming up with new services we can deliver which add value to all parties. 

What we’re looking for

• Resilient, and motivated to exceed targets

  • Our sales and resubscription targets are ambitious but achievable. You’ll need to be determined to meet and exceed them.

• Active listening

  • Our employer offering is a bespoke partnership, based on the objectives of our employer partners and how their goals align with the needs of our student and teacher audience. You’ll need to be an outstanding active listener, and be able to facilitate consultative discussions with potential and existing partners. 

• 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 employers.

• Strong communication skills

  • 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, and prepared to speak on panels and present at conferences.

• Attention to detail

  • Whether it’s marketing collateral or an email to a partner organisation, it’s important you have the skills and discipline to carefully check our employer focused content and communications.

• 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.

• Data analysis

  • You will be expected to organise and interpret data to help employer partners make decisions about their partnership which will lead to securing new business and renewals. We also use Salesforce and Power BI; experience using these tools is desirable but not essential. You also need to be confident using google sheets, excel and powerpoint to create easy to understand visual representations. 

• Commercial awareness

  • We are more interested in people’s attitude and ability than their work history, but previous experience in Corporate Social Responsibility,  Emerging Talent, and/or Apprenticeships would be an advantage.

Working together

This is an exciting opportunity to join our growing Employer Partnerships team. You’ll work alongside several other teams at Unifrog too, including people on our marketing, data analysis, and school facing teams. You’ll be line-managed by the Head of Employer Partnerships.

Benefits

Inclusion and diversity at Unifrog

To this end we believe in open communication, celebrating successes, supporting each other, not being afraid to be wrong or to fail, and promoting good ideas wherever they come from.

• As a platform that supports teachers and students from a huge variety of backgrounds it’s important that our team and leadership reflects this diversity. This is something we are actively working towards and prioritising. We want to embed diversity, equity and inclusion across everything we do, continually evaluating policies and practices to make sure they are inclusive and equitable.

• To make sure everyone’s voice is heard and people have the opportunities to learn to be better allies in the workplace, we encourage the team to share what they’re celebrating, facilitate training and group discussions, and seek regular feedback about what more the company could do to help people feel included.

• To ensure that our recruitment process is consistent and fair, we anonymise your application and therefore do not see your name, personal, educational or professional background. We also randomise the order of responses so that it’s less likely that a candidate is advantaged or disadvantaged by where their answers appear compared to other candidates.

Our Mission

We're Tutors United. We're on a mission to end the attainment and employability gap through the power of community-based tutoring. We support young people to thrive at two key transition points – from primary to secondary school, and from university to employment.

What We Do 

Working with housing associations and other local partners, we run free tutoring programmes for primary school children and their families, providing access to vital educational support to those who need it most. We're proud to serve diverse, low-income, refugee, migrant, and multilingual communities across London, the Midlands, and the North West. We hire, train, and pay inspiring university students – most of whom also come from low-income households – as tutors, providing them with meaningful, paid work experience and support to boost their careers.

Each year, our work gives hundreds of young people, parents and carers the knowledge, skills and confidence they need to maximise education and employment opportunities. We have a brilliant Programme Officer position available for an ambitious, dedicated, and proactive person to join our team!

Job Purpose

This is an exciting time to join our small and impactful team, as we embark on a new four-year strategy, with goals to broaden and deepen our reach and impact, diversify our funding and delivery partnerships, and boost our programmes to support year 6 to 7 transition and tutor career development opportunities.

A major strategic priority is to grow geographically in Liverpool - which this role will play a pivotal role in achieving. Following the successful launch in January of our first ever face-to-face programme outside of London, in the Speke area of Liverpool, we hope to continue reaching more areas in Liverpool where there is great need and fostering new partnerships. We expanded beyond London during the pandemic with online tuition and have since grown across the Midlands and the North. This is our second dedicated role outside London, and the first in Liverpool. Working closely with our Manchester-based Head of Regions, you will help deliver contracts, build strong local relationships, and expand our reach in high-need areas.

The Programme Officer will be responsible for the management and overall delivery of their designated programmes. Over the next four years, we aim to scale our tutoring hubs to reach over 1,000 pupils per year in core cities and areas across England. This role will involve managing relationships with tutors, parents and clients, while collecting robust qualitative and quantitative data to measure the impact and build the success of our work. This is a critical role, leading on the delivery and evaluation of multiple programmes, managing key stakeholder relationships, and contributing to the development of our tutoring programmes in our newer delivery regions.

The Programme Officer will ensure high levels of quality assurance, particularly among tutors working in their hubs, so we achieve our intended outcomes. This is a multifaceted role, working across all parts of the organisation to ensure we deliver the best possible results for our pupils. You will have the chance to be creative in shaping and adapting our programmes to meet the specific needs of families in Liverpool City Region.

We are looking for someone who is enthusiastic about education, has strong stakeholder management skills and is familiar with the Liverpool area in particular but broader knowledge of North-West region is also beneficial. You should be able to adapt your communication style to effectively engage with clients, parents, tutors, pupils and funders alike, and have strong written and verbal presentation skills. You will bring brilliant project management skills and be comfortable working with data and using it to make informed decisions.

Location of candidate

Must be based in Liverpool.
