Schools Marketing Executive

Are you a creative marketer fizzing with ideas that you can turn into campaigns that connect with schools and parents? Do you love understanding what makes your audience tick and then crafting copy and visuals that inspire action, while keeping a close eye on what delivers results?

Then our new Schools Marketing Executive role could be a great fit for you.

Scholastic is the home of reading. For over 100 years, we’ve been building readers across the globe through our Education, Book Fairs and Book Clubs businesses.

We have a brilliant opportunity for a marketing executive to join our team working across Scholastic Education and International School Book Clubs.
