The Role
Digital Communications and Content Manager
Ravensbourne University London is seeking an experienced and creative Digital Communications and Content Manager to lead the development and execution of our social media and digital content strategy.
You will be responsible for managing our main social media channels, growing our online presence and creating high-impact digital content that reflects our purpose, mission and values. This role is pivotal in enhancing engagement with key audiences including prospective and current students, staff, alumni and the wider Higher Education community.

You'll also be confident in analysing metrics to optimise performance and have experience managing and briefing external creatives, freelancers or agencies. Leadership experience and the ability to mentor and support others is essential.
This is a hands-on and strategic role, ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced creative environment and is passionate about making an impact through digital communication.
Key skills:
Proven experience in digital content creation and social media strategy, strong communication and collaboration skills, content planning, team management and analytics expertise.
