Job Opportunities

We are looking for a proactive, ‘sparkly’ and down-to-earth individual to join the Lucy Sparkles team as a Business Development Manager, helping to grow our Early Years and Franchise businesses.

This is a flexible, freelance role that can be carried out from the comfort of your own home. You’ll work closely with our Company Director and Head of Brand to drive growth across both areas of the business, from generating new leads to building long-term partnerships.

You’ll be responsible for developing and delivering our franchise marketing strategy, from initial research and positioning through to lead generation, nurturing and conversion. You’ll also support our recruitment and onboarding team to turn high-quality candidates into successful franchise partners.

Alongside this, you’ll grow our client base across nurseries, schools and early years settings. This includes generating leads, arranging trial sessions, securing new contracts, and managing client relationships from onboarding through to retention and growth. You’ll also support and train our franchisees in nursery business development, helping them build successful local businesses.

We are always on the lookout for energetic, talented and ‘sparkly’ actors, dancers and musicians to join the Sparkles team as music, dance and drama teachers and children’ entertainers.

Our Sparkles teachers run music, dance and drama classes every week at several open venues and at over 70 nurseries and early years settings throughout Greater London and Surrey. Our Sparkles entertainers entertain at weekends at children’s parties for boys and girls aged one to six. You can apply for a job as a music, dance and drama teacher, a children’s entertainer, or both!

We’re based in London and Surrey, but always looking to broaden our horizons – so if you’re interested in a job as a music, dance or drama teacher or as a children’s entertainer working outside these areas, why not talk to us about becoming a sparkles franchisee.
