• Enhancing accessibility, usability, and learner journeys.
• Developing and managing multimedia content, including short-form video.
• Coordinating and quality assuring resources created by programme teams.
• Using analytics and user feedback to drive continuous improvement.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone with experience in digital learning, educational technology, or platform development who is motivated by our charitable mission.

The Bell Foundation was established in 2012 and has grown significantly to become a leading authority on English as an Additional Language (EAL) in education. Our vision is to create opportunities, change lives, and overcome exclusion through language education. We deliver this through strategic work with schools and adult education that aims to achieve system change and improve outcomes for vulnerable groups, including refugees, asylum seekers, and learners from disadvantaged backgrounds.
