- Manage social media accounts and maintain consistent brand voice across platforms.
- Build online followers and increase engagement through community management and digital outreach.
- Develop and manage content calendars, ensuring a steady flow of relevant and high-quality posts.
- Monitor, analyze, and report on campaign performance using Google Analytics and other tools.
- Collaborate with designers, developers, and videographers on web, video, and design projects.
- Oversee website updates, copywriting, and addition of current assets or pages for school locations.
- Create surveys and collect feedback from franchisees and head office to assess marketing effectiveness.
- Conduct weekly social media and marketing meetings to plan, review progress, and share updates.




- Stay current on industry trends and emerging digital best practices.

Event Coordination

- School Open Houses
- Community Outreach Events
- Franchise Training Sessions and Onboarding
- Marketing Workshops and Conferences
- Create surveys for franchisees and staff to gather feedback before and after events.
- Promote events ahead of time through social media, email campaigns, and other marketing channels.
- Collaborate on the vision and creative direction for each event, working closely with designers to develop marketing materials, signage, and branded items.
- Attend events, including weekends, to participate and oversee on-site execution.
- Capture images and videos during events for content creation.
- Manage live social media coverage during events and post-event content sharing.
- Manage event logistics, including venue selection, vendor coordination, budgets, and timelines.
- Ensure event assets (videos, slideshows, marketing collateral) are current and on-brand.
- Develop and maintain an annual event calendar for all corporate and franchise events.

Collaboration & Brand Support

- Liaise with Franchise Field Officers and school owners to support their marketing and event needs.
- Assist with the onboarding of new franchisees, providing marketing and social media training.
