Change lives in a life-changing career
When a child or young person is diagnosed with cancer, their whole world can feel like it’s falling apart. Independence is taken and confidence is stolen. Stability no longer exists. The future suddenly feels uncertain.

We remove barriers, solve problems and prioritise wellbeing. And we stop at nothing to make their voices heard and their unique needs understood, so they can get the right care and support at the right time

Collaborate with stakeholders, manage suppliers, and create engaging content to inspire and empower supporters to reach their fundraising ambitions. Ensure all activities are compliant with relevant regulations, contribute to organisational objectives, and uphold best practices in fundraising.

The Community Engagement Officer will play a key role in helping Symphony Studios become a place that young people, families, schools and local partners know, trust and use.
This is a practical, people-facing role for someone who is brilliant at building relationships, opening conversations and helping people feel that Symphony is for them. You will help connect young people to our programmes, strengthen relationships across Tulse Hill, Brixton, Norwood and wider Lambeth, and make sure the Studios are not just a building, but a place of welcome, access, creativity and opportunity.

Through Academics, Arts and Advocacy, we create platforms where young people can learn, make music, develop their voice, build confidence and imagine a fuller future.
This role will help us move that mission from intention into everyday connection. You will be a bridge between Symphony and the people we exist to serve — young people, parents, carers, schools, youth services, local organisations, creatives, volunteers and partners. You will help us listen well, communicate clearly, build trust locally, and make sure the right people know what is happening at Symphony Studios and how to get involved.
As Symphony grows, this role will also support the foundations for wider moments such as showcases, community events and TRIBE Festival of Hope. It is a chance to help build something rooted, generous and ambitious from the ground up.
