All successful applicants would need a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) or Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) check that is enhanced, checked for children's and adult's barred lists, and is registered on the Update Service. Counsellors on placement provide emotional and therapeutic support to children and young people aged 4-18 in Place2Be partner schools.

Senior Account Manager
Zen Educate Inc.
Senior AM Location: London (Oval), United Kingdom Type: Full-time Salary: £45,000- £60,000 OTE If your salary expectations do not meet our banding, please do still apply, as there is flexibility for industry experience Hi, I'm Bill, Head of Account Management at Zen Educate, and I'm looking for Account Managers who want to tackle a very real, very important problem: helping schools get the teachers they need, when they need them, without wasting millions on old-school recruitment agencies. If you're someone who loves building relationships, solving meaningful problems, and being part of a mission-driven team this might be your thing. What we're building and why Here's the challenge: UK schools spend over £2 billion a year on temporary staff. But £600 million of that goes straight into the pockets of recruitment agencies, money that should be going back into classrooms and teachers' pay. So we're doing things differently. Zen Educate is an online platform that gives schools instant access to fully vetted teachers and support staff. Since launching in 2017, we've already saved schools over £30 million, that's gone straight back to where it matters most. We've just closed a $37 m Series B (the biggest EdTech round in Europe last year!), and we're scaling fast in the UK and the US . It's an exciting time to join, have a huge impact, and grow alongside us. What this role looks like in practice Own the relationship with key accounts school accounts including retention, expansion, and new business Build and develop relationships with Senior Stakeholders across networks within your region e.g. Executive Headteachers, MAT CEOs Take the lead on operational and commercial projects within your team Lead school leaders through successful recruitment processes using a consultative approach Call schools and build pipeline Work collaboratively with the sales, operations, and the technology team to continuously improve efficiency in delivering value to schools Get your hands dirty. Like any true start up, no two weeks will be the same and a general interest in mucking in and just getting the job done is crucial Who you are Naturally enthusiastic and curious (we'll train you on everything else!). Confident picking up the phone, handling objections, and building trust fast. Someone with a proven track record of hitting sales targets (or smashing similar KPIs). A team player who loves being part of a close-knit group. Passionate about having a positive social impact (bonus points if you care deeply about education). Someone with a growth mindset is always looking to learn and improve. What you might like or dislike You might love it if: You want a role where your work has a tangible social impact. You like fast paced environments where things are always evolving. You're excited about the idea of working in a mission driven startup that's scaling rapidly. You might find it tricky if: You prefer highly structured corporate environments with fixed processes. You don't like ambiguity. Sometimes we're building the plane while flying it. Picking up the phone and having conversations with decision makers feels uncomfortable. What's in it for you? Meaningful work - this isn't just another SaaS tool; you're literally helping schools save money and pay teachers more. Competitive salary + ownership in the company. 25 days holiday + all the usual UK public holidays. A central London office with perks like fresh fruit, bike parking, showers, an on site gym, and a café. 1 1 coaching to keep you growing personally and professionally. Life & Health Insurance, Cycle to Work Scheme, Electric Car Scheme. How we hire Quick chat with our recruiter - to get to know you and cover the basics. Role focused conversation - we'll talk about how you approach account management, building relationships, and hitting targets. Practical Task and role play - to see how you'd think on your feet with a realistic school conversation. Culture chat with the team - making sure it's a good fit both ways. We're direct and transparent. If it's a yes, great! If it's a no, we'll let you know quickly. Diversity & inclusion At Zen, we strive to build a culture of equity and inclusion, where everyone is respected, valued and appreciated for their unique traits, experiences and perspectives. We are committed to creating a safe, inclusive and equitable environment where our team can thrive, regardless of age, ethnicity, race, gender identity, sexual orientation, socio economic status, disability, religion or beliefs. We value our differences and believe that practices of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion help us create a fairer, more compassionate environment for all. We welcome applicants with diverse backgrounds and different experiences and perspectives, just like the staff who teach through Zen and the children at the schools we work with. We believe in hiring the best people from the widest pool and creating an inclusive culture where people's voices are heard and all our team can look forward to coming to work. We are committed to building a team that reflects the diversity of our community and promoting an equitable and inclusive environment for all. We seek out diverse opinions, beliefs and experiences because they collectively make us stronger; we've had former teachers, pilots, fundraisers, engineers, lawyers, marketers, social media experts and more join our team. Ready to make a difference? If you've read this far and you're excited (maybe even a little nervous) about the opportunity, apply now! We'd love to chat.

Over time, this circle of support has increased to include a whole range of professionals that children and foster parents can tap into, whenever they need to. This includes social workers, fostering advisors, teachers and therapists, who all work with our foster parents and the children they look after, helping them understand and manage even the most challenging situations. This is what's known as a'therapeutic approach' to fosteringand it's something that we pioneered.

The device helps children and teachers get creative with digital technology, with a specific focus on broadening the diversity of students passionate about computing. This is a broad role in a small organisation, working predominantly on open source projects, in collaboration with other organisations like Lancaster University, Arm and Microsoft. Current projects include: The micro:bit CODAL - the abstractions on which the primary, web-based editors for the micro:bit are built ( , ) DAPLink - the micro:bit's firmware that enables the seamless experience in classrooms so the micro:bit can be programmed from the browser MicroPython for the micro:bit and pxt-microbit , from which MakeCode is built. We want to enable a diversity of people to create amazing and creative things with the micro:bit, so empowering them to do as many different things, as easily as possible, is a key goal. The successful candidate will help us push the limit of what can be done with the micro:bit hardware, with an emphasis on writing expandable, efficient software, with user friendly interfaces. Essential qualifications More than 4 years experience developing C/C++ drivers and software to run on embedded devices (ideally Arm Cortex-M). Experience debugging software in embedded systems using electronic lab tools. Familiarity with test methodologies for embedded systems, including automated and manual tests.
