Implement a structured agent engagement strategy, providing regular updates and campaign materials in collaboration with the Head of Marketing. Build and maintain effective relationships with alumni, engaging them in recruitment activities as appropriate.

Admissions

Lead the full admissions journey for international boarding pupils from first enquiry to arrival on campus, delivering a highly personalised and engaging experience. Work closely with the Head of Boarding and pastoral teams to ensure every new boarder feels welcomed and confident during their transition. Respond to enquiries and manage applications efficiently and sensitively, offering clear, timely and reassuring guidance throughout the process.
