You will collaborate closely with colleagues across Parliament, including Members of both Houses, Parliamentary departments and digital teams, to develop high-quality educational experiences and secure guest contributions. Working alongside the Secondary School Programmes Lead, Special Events colleagues and a Video Producer, you will contribute creatively to content development while supporting basic video production activities, digital content creation and the successful operation of the outreach programme.

In addition, you will manage an Outreach Officer, support key projects including the continued development of the Education Outreach Digital Suite, and take responsibility for programme reporting, stakeholder engagement and performance tracking through CRM systems. Working closely with the Participation Marketing Team, you will help promote the programme to schools nationwide, ensuring participation targets are achieved while contributing as an active member of the wider Education and Engagement Team.
