• Writing and designing digital and print content.
• Planning and delivering content for distribution across all our digital and social media channels, ensuring consistent presentation of the Northampton High School brand.
• Assisting with managing updates of our school website.
• Attending key events (some evenings/occasional weekends) to take and edit photographs and video footage for sharing on social and digital platforms.
• Creating promotional material such as school prospectuses and promotional adverts.

A successful candidate will have:

• Experience using Adobe Suite, specifically InDesign and Photoshop, and/or Canva, as well as WordPress, Mailchimp and native social media platforms.
• Knowledge of Premiere Pro video editing software would be an advantage.
• A cheerful, flexible approach with a ‘can do’ attitude is also important.

Benefits include:

• Use of the school fitness facilities.
• Professional training and development programme.
• Free school lunch during term time.
• 50% discount on fees for GDST schools, and a generous pension scheme.

Applications should be submitted by midday on Friday 9 May 2025; however, we reserve the right to interview candidates for this vacancy early if we receive sufficient applications for the role.
