About Enko Education

Enko Education is an international school network with Africa at heart and the world in mind. We are building a network of African International Schools in 10 African countries, offering an education accessible to more Africans that gives them the world's best universities through innovative programmes leading to globally recognised qualifications.

Since 2014, Enko Education has helped thousands of students secure admission to top universities such as Yale College, Sciences Po, Ecole Polytechnique, and the University of Toronto. Backed by leading development finance institutions, we are on track to reach 20,000 students by 2028.

We are looking for a sharp, data-driven marketer who is equally at home strategising on digital acquisition and rolling up their sleeves to implement, measure and optimise. You will own the full growth funnel, from the first impression to a signed enrollment, working across the central team and the network of schools, orchestrating agencies and internal stakeholders to drive results.

Do you thrive at the intersection of data, technology and marketing? Do you have a strong bias for action and a passion for impact? Then we want to hear from you.

Apply now and embark on a journey of transformation with Enko Education.
