Marketing Specialist

We are thrilled to offer an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic, creative and dedicated individual to join our Contour MedPrep team as a Marketing Specialist! At Contour, we take pride in delivering exceptional and innovative marketing strategies that drive growth and elevate our brand.
Until now, our founders have largely projected our voice and vision to students, parents, and the world.
However, as Contour MedPrep continues to expand rapidly, the need for a dedicated and creative powerhouse to take charge of marketing has become increasingly apparent.


As a Marketing Specialist, your role will be pivotal in ensuring that Contour MedPrep reaches and engages students across Australia, building a trusted brand in medical preparation.
From lead nurturing through email campaigns to creating seamless marketing funnels, your contributions will play a crucial role in attracting students to our programs.
You'll also be involved in developing and refining our website and social media advertisements, as well as overseeing marketing for all of our in-person events.
We strive to establish our brand as Australia's Leading Medical Preparation Program, and as a Marketing Specialist, you will be instrumental in shaping our outreach and engagement strategies, ensuring we are able to help as many students as possible in their journey to become a doctor or dentist.
Who Are WeContour MedPrep is a leading medical preparation program that currently specialises in comprehensive UCAT and Interview preparation, aiming to empower and support the next generation of healthcare professionals in the highly competitive yet often daunting process of gaining entry into medical school.

Our UCAT course aligns itself with the objective of the UCAT, rigorously training students in the mental abilities and skills of a successful doctor or dentist, through engaging group lessons, comprehensive and abundant resources, live mock exams, 24/7 student support and so much more!
We are extremely committed to innovative and results-driven medical preparation, with industry-first initiatives such as our Live UCAT Testing Centre and student accountability system propelling our 2023 students to an industry-leading median UCAT score of 3040+, one student even setting the world record score of 3590!

Over 3500 students and 100 staff have joined our tutoring services since our founding in 2020.
This year, we have successfully expanded our in-person Live Testing Centres to Brisbane and Sydney, with over 1000 bookings, and hundreds of new enrolments from all over Australia.
Our growth is a testament to our dedication to providing ALL our students and parents with a high-quality tutoring experience (from 24/7 personal support to on-demand resources) and our commitment to helping them achieve their goals.
We were listed as the 17th Fastest Growing Startup by the Australian Financial Review in 2022, and we're continuing to multiply year over year!
It's our vision to reshape education, starting with tutoring.
The RoleAt Contour MedPrep, we are passionate about transforming the way students prepare for medical and dental school.
As we continue to grow rapidly, the importance of creating a strong and effective marketing strategy to engage with students, parents, and the education industry has never been greater.
We are looking for a highly skilled and creative Marketing Specialist to take the lead in managing and nurturing our online presence, as well as overseeing our promotional efforts at in-person events.
As the Marketing Specialist at Contour, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the way we connect with aspiring medical and dental students.
Your responsibilities will range from executing targeted email and text marketing campaigns, to managing leads from our free online resources, and creating comprehensive marketing funnels to ensure maximum engagement.
You'll also oversee our website's development and improvement, optimising it as a hub for information and lead generation.
As part of the role, you'll collaborate closely with our core leadership team, ensuring that our campaigns reflect our values, goals, and the vibrant energy of Contour MedPrep. This role will require you to coordinate the creation of marketing materials for both digital and physical campaigns.

Your work will be instrumental in promoting our events and offerings, while deepening our relationship with students and parents.
This role offers both flexibility and the opportunity for growth.
With a hybrid arrangement, there is the flexibility of working remotely but also the opportunity to work in-person with our young and hard-working team at our new Melbourne CBD Office.
