Job Description
Head of Marketing and Learner Recruitment
£54,961 - £58,210 per annum
We offer an excellent pension scheme, family friendly policies, opportunities for training and development and an employee discount scheme.
Leeds College of Building is the only further education college in the UK dedicated entirely to construction and the built environment. Since our founding in the 1960s, we have trained over 100,000 students and apprentices, and we are now on an ambitious drive to become the recognised national leader in our sector. Central to achieving that is growing our learner numbers — across 16–18 programmes, adult education, apprenticeships and higher-level technical qualifications — and we are creating a dedicated Learner Recruitment function to lead that effort.
To drive this ambition forward, we are looking for an experienced and outcomes-focused Head of Marketing and Learner Recruitment This is a pivotal new role at the heart of our College Leadership Team. You will build and lead a dedicated team of recruitment and admissions professionals, taking full ownership of our learner pipeline from first contact through to enrolment. You will set targets, manage performance and work collaboratively with faculty colleagues to ensure every classroom is full and every programme recruits to capacity.
You will be the driving force behind our relationships with schools, sixth forms, employers and community partners across Leeds and the wider West Yorkshire region. Your Schools Liaison Officers and Learner Recruitment Officer will be out in the community, and you will direct their activity with purpose and precision. You will also take ownership of all learner-facing recruitment events, including open days and taster sessions, ensuring every interaction reflects the very best of LCB.
You might not know much about LCB, but as the CTEC for Yorkshire and Humber and the only construction-specialist college in the country, we are uniquely placed to tackle the skills shortage that the sector faces. Construction is one of the most prosperous and purposeful industries in the UK, and we need someone who shares our passion for opening it up to as many learners as possible — particularly those who have traditionally been underrepresented. If you are ambitious, commercial in your thinking, and committed to making a measurable difference, we would love to hear from you.
In return, we offer a warm and welcoming college with an excellent benefits package that includes:
A 35-day annual leave entitlement, plus 8 Bank Holidays and 10 college closure days.
A well-respected pension scheme (West Yorkshire Pension Fund with an above average employer contribution)
Free parking at all our College sites (on a first come first served basis)
Family friendly policies and opportunities for flexible working
Superb opportunities for training and development
Discounted travel on public transport and a Cycle to work scheme
Discounts and offers at major High Street and Online retailers
Access to an Employee Assistance Programme.
So, if you’d like to make a difference and be part of a unique organisation that supports one of the largest and most exciting employment sectors in the UK, we’d love to hear from you.
