CRM Data Manager

Cognita is a global family of 86 schools across 21 countries, with more than 100,000 students, 22,000 colleagues, 14 curricula and 9 languages of instruction. Our strength lies in our diversity. There is no single model of a Cognita school because education is inherently local. When families choose a school, they are making a deeply personal and community-based decision, and our schools reflect this.

What unites us is a shared ambition to deliver consistently high-quality education, alongside an exceptional experience for students and parents. We define this clearly through group-wide standards that articulate what “great” looks like, while allowing schools the freedom to express their local identity.

We have recently launched a new vision and strategic plan. It is ambitious and sets a clear direction for the years ahead.

Make sureevery number in our CRM can be trusted

Cognita is aglobal community of schools committed to making a lasting difference ineducation. We believe great schools are built by great people, and as we moveour schools onto HubSpot, we need someone who can make sure the data behindthem is clean, well governed and trusted.

That starts with migrating schools cleanly onto HubSpot and continues with setting the standards that keep data reliable in everyday operations. It’s a hands‑on role at the heart of our commercial data foundation, and the people who rely on it, from Principals to central teams, will be counting on you.
