Join Colgate-Palmolive, a caring, innovative growth company reimagining a healthier future for people, their pets, and our planet. Guided by our core values—Caring, Inclusive, and Courageous—we foster a culture that inspires our people to achieve common goals. Together, let's build a brighter, healthier future for all.
Are you a passionate educator with a flair for scientific storytelling? Do you thrive on building meaningful connections and shaping the next generation of dental professionals?
At Colgate-Palmolive, we are more than just a global leader in oral care; we are a science-first partner dedicated to a healthier future. We are looking for a Education Manager to be the face of our brand within the academic community. This is a high-impact, autonomous role where you will bridge the gap between classroom theory and clinical excellence, fostering lifelong brand advocacy from a student’s first day at university through to their professional career.
As our Education Manager, you will be the "Voice of the Student" and a critical scientific partner. Your mission is to drive trust and behavior adoption for Colgate’s Professional portfolio through world-class education.
Key Responsibilities:
Strategic Partnerships: Identify and nurture long-term collaborative relationships with key faculty and student stakeholders across 44 Dental Schools in the UK and Ireland.
Dynamic Education Delivery: Lead engaging, hands-on workshops and high-impact scientific presentations that bring our product innovations to life.
Community & Advocacy: Design networking events and community oral health initiatives that build authentic brand ambassadorship among dental students and young professionals.
Content Innovation: Collaborate with cross-functional teams and external agencies to create "best-in-class" educational assets for our Professional Education Hub and social media channels.
Market Intelligence: Act as a local expert, providing insights on market dynamics and student needs to our Scientific Affairs and Marketing teams.
Operational Excellence: Manage the Advertising & Promotional (A&P) budget and leverage our digital ecosystem to track engagement and ROI.
You are a self-motivated leader who enjoys the "theatre" of public speaking and the strategy behind relationship management. You are as comfortable analyzing data as you are facilitating a room full of aspiring dentists.
Your Toolkit Includes:
Exceptional Communication: A natural ability to simplify complex scientific data into engaging, persuasive narratives.
Relationship Mastery: A proven track record in stakeholder management and the ability to influence at all levels.
Commercial Acumen: You understand the "why" behind the "what," ensuring every educational touchpoint drives value and measurable growth.
Autonomy: You love the freedom of a field-based role and have the organizational skills to manage a territory spanning the UK and Ireland.
Analytical Mindset: Comfortable using digital tools and LMS data to refine strategies and report on performance.
You’ll be part of a collaborative, inclusive team that values your unique perspective. We offer the opportunity to work with cutting-edge oral care science and a brand that is a household name worldwide. This role offers incredible visibility within the business and the chance to truly own the student engagement strategy for a global leader.
