Bancroft’s has a remarkable story to tell. We’re looking for someone exceptional to make sure it’s heard.
There is much to build on in this new role. The establishment of the Bancroft’s Family of Schools marks a significant new chapter in our history. Alongside national recognition and a new website in development, it gives us fresh opportunities to nurture our narrative. You will help turn that momentum into marketing and communications that further strengthen our reputation and give families clear reasons to choose Bancroft’s.
As Head of Marketing and Communications, you will work as a strategic partner to the Director of Admissions, Marketing and Communications. You will bring professional judgement and an understanding of our audiences, helping set the direction and taking responsibility for delivery.
We want someone who sees possibilities, asks great questions and brings ideas to the table that we haven’t considered. You will have the trust and space to challenge familiar approaches, create work that makes people take notice and use data to understand what works. There is real ambition here, shared by colleagues who care about the School and want to see it succeed.
You will lead and support the Marketing Officer, collaborate with specialist creative partners and play an active role in creating content that brings School life to the fore.
Working closely with Admissions, you will develop distinct approaches for marketing our Prep School, Senior School and Sixth Form. The role is focused on Bancroft’s, with opportunities to share expertise and contribute to selected projects across our Family of Schools.
Few marketing roles offer the joy of getting to know young people, watching them discover what they are capable of and sharing the moments that make the whole community so proud. Helping curate those stories is one of the most rewarding aspects of the job and calls for authenticity, innovation and care.
