About us

At Arbor, we’re on a mission to transform the way schools work for the better.

We believe in a future of work in schools where being challenged doesn’t mean being burnt out and overworked. Where data guides progress without overwhelming staff. And where everyone working in a school is reminded why they got into education every day.

Our MIS and school management tools are already making a difference in over 12,500 schools and trusts. Giving time and power back to staff, turning data into clear, actionable insights, and supporting happier working days.

At the heart of our brand is a recognition that the challenges schools face today aren’t just about efficiency, outputs and productivity - but about creating happier working lives for the people who drive education everyday: the staff. We want to make schools more joyful places to work, as well as learn.

About the role

We are looking for a Brand and Content Marketing Manager to turn our high-level brand and content strategy into high-impact campaigns that drive demand, awareness, and brand love across Arbor and the full School Management Suite. This role isn't just about managing output; it's about holding the line on voice, identity, and premium quality as we aggressively scale into new and adjacent markets.

You will own the day-to-day operations of our multi-brand ecosystem, balancing creative storytelling with commercial rigour. On one hand, you will hold a direct stake in our pipeline, using content as a strategic lever to hit termly lead and SQL targets. On the other, you will lead our brand enablement, defining the intake processes, guardrails, and asset libraries that empower the wider business.

As we look to the future, you will help shape the workflows of an AI-native content team and orchestrate a world-class network of freelance designers, videographers, and photographers. Partnering deeply with Demand Gen, Product, Customer Success, and Sales, you will also support the Head of Brand and Content on critical integration work streams as our group continues to expand through organic growth and M&A.

We need an operational engine who can execute at pace and an inspiring cross-functional collaborator to unite our story.
