Contact Manager

Manage every external relationship in one connected place

Supporting prospective students and applicants is at the heart of what you do. But great recruitment also depends on maintaining strong relationships with the wider network that supports them; teachers, parents, partners, graduates, and employers.

The Contact Manager module brings all those connections together in one place. It helps outreach, alumni, and business development teams keep every contact organised, accessible, and ready for meaningful engagement.
