About Perform
Perform was launched in 2000 as a new kind of drama school with child development at its heart. The founders, Will Barnett and Lucy Quick, both had a passion for the performing arts and wanted to create a unique organisation to help build children’s self-esteem and life skills.
With ‘Confidence Building Fun’ as its strapline, Perform uses the performing arts to boost children’s confidence. Classes for 4-7s and 7-12s use specially designed activities alongside drama, dance and singing, each with the aim of developing the 4 Cs - confidence, concentration, communication and coordination.
There are over 600 Perform classes running each week in over 300 venues - across London, the South East, South West and Nottingham.
REQUIREMENTS:
We are looking for a candidate with proven experience in content marketing or a professional communications role (agency or brand-side). The ideal candidate will excel at producing engaging content, from planning and filming to final edits and publishing.
You should be comfortable leading content projects independently, collaborating with a wider marketing team to ensure our brand message remains consistent across all channels (social media, website and email). You will also oversee social media as a key distribution channel, with a primary focus on crafting compelling content that resonates with our target audience.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Creativity, attention to detail and IT proficiency are essential, as is a high standard of written English. An understanding of arts marketing or marketing to parents would be advantageous, though not essential.
The Content Marketing Executive will join a small team and report directly to the Head of Marketing. Experienced applicants looking for part-time contracts may also be considered, at a minimum of three days a week.
RESPONSIBILITIES:

- With the support of the wider Marketing team, feed into and execute a comprehensive, on-brand content strategy that aligns with Perform’s overall marketing goals
- Support the creation of an integrated editorial calendar, encompassing social media, website updates and email campaigns
- Monitor industry trends and competitor activity to keep Perform’s content fresh, relevant and engaging
Content Creation and Production
- Produce high-quality content (written, visual and video) that reflects Perform’s identity and speaks to our target audience
- Become a brand expert, gaining a deep understanding of Perform’s classes, teaching style and unique selling points
- Liaise with Perform Area Partners and Producers to schedule on-site visits for filming and photography, ensuring all necessary staff and parental consents are in place
- Write and edit compelling copy for social media posts, email newsletters and website pages, ensuring consistency in tone and style
- When needed, brief and manage external photographers/videographers, reviewing outputs for brand alignment and high production values
- Maintain and organise the digital content library for easy access and re-use of assets
