About Resonance
Resonance is a 24/7, artist-led community radio station based in Southwark, London, broadcasting on FM, DAB and online to audiences in the UK and internationally. The station supports experimental arts & culture and under-represented voices through community radio broadcasting, working with hundreds of volunteer broadcasters, artists and producers each year alongside a small staff team. Resonance is delivered by London Musicians’ Collective Limited, a registered charity (290236), and is sustained through listener support and grant funding.

Purpose of the Role
This role exists to increase Resonance’s charitable income, securing the funding that enables its artistic and community work to happen. It sits alongside, rather than within, artistic and operational delivery, with a specific focus on charitable fundraising and supporter engagement.

The Development Coordinator works across the organisation to draw out the charitable purpose, public benefit and impact of Resonance’s activity, and to communicate this clearly to funders and donors through funding applications, donor communications and impact-led narratives.

Key Outcomes

• Charitable income increases year on year, supported by a strong pipeline of trust and foundation applications and effective stewardship of funders.
• Individual giving grows, with donors and supporters receiving regular, credible communications that lead to stronger engagement and donations over time.
• Resonance’s charitable activity and public benefit are communicated clearly and confidently to funders and supporters, using evidence that is accurate, proportionate and well judged.
• Donor, funder and impact information is well-organised, up to date and actively used to support fundraising and stewardship.
• Charitable development activity is delivered reliably, supporting the organisation’s long-term financial sustainability within a small, collaborative team.

Role Context
This role is supported by grant funding from the Community Radio Fund, administered by Ofcom on behalf of the UK Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport (DCMS). The Development Coordinator focuses on resourcing Resonance’s charitable mission by translating artistic and community activity into clear, funder- and donor-facing narratives, working at the intersection of information, relationships and deadlines and exercising good judgement when priorities compete or information is incomplete.

Ways of Working

• This role will suit someone who enjoys working with focus and care, and who values seeing work through properly.
• You are comfortable taking ownership of defined areas of work, researching opportunities, shaping written material and keeping clear records.
• You understand how good systems, documentation and digital tools, including AI tools, support accuracy, efficiency and consistency in fundraising and donor communications, and you are motivated by seeing this work translate into tangible results, including increased charitable income.
• You are curious about Resonance’s work and the communities it serves, and willing to spend time understanding what makes its creative activity distinctive in order to communicate its public benefit clearly to others.

Working Hours
The post is full-time and based at our Southwark studios. Core hours are usually 10a.m - 4p.m, and time off in lieu is provided for agreed additional hours. Because Resonance operates around the clock, some early-morning, evening, or weekend work will occasionally be required to support fundraising activities.

Equity and Inclusion
Resonance is a small team serving a wide and diverse community of broadcasters. We particularly welcome applications from women, people from the global majority, disabled people, and those currently under-represented in fundraising roles within the audio and charity sector.
