The Education and Training Foundation (ETF) is the workforce development body for the Further Education (FE) and Training sector. We work in partnership with others to deliver professional learning and development for teachers, trainers and leaders. We balance government priorities with sector needs to achieve our core charitable purpose to improve education and training for learners aged 14 and over.
We are now looking for an ambitious Executive Director of Membership and Sales to join our Executive team, and lead the membership and sales directorate that also encompasses marketing, events and our regional engagement team. The Executive Director of Membership and Sales will drive the growth of membership, increasing retention rates as well as setting the strategy for membership categories, products, services and partnerships, ensuring long-term sustainable membership income for ETF. They will develop a high-quality membership and marketing plan that aligns closely with our ETF strategy to deliver commercial benefits, but also implement the charity’s brand, so that our profile can be maximised to the best effect.
This is a significant role and a compelling opportunity to deliver to the next phase of development at ETF, with a strong platform to build on. Strategic and collaborative in your approach, alongside a growth mindset, you will bring experience of operating at a senior level in an organisation of comparable scale and complexity. Able to build personal credibility quickly and be comfortable working flexibly and at pace, you will bring commercial acumen and maturity of judgement. Having led teams through change, you will be skilled in creating and maintaining a high-performance culture, inspiring and influencing at all levels, and working collaboratively across teams.
If you believe you have the skills, qualities and attributes required, we would be very pleased to hear from you.
