Development Coordinator Jobs in Pennsylvania: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a development coordinator in Pennsylvania?
Most development coordinator positions in Pennsylvania require a bachelor's degree, typically in nonprofit management, communications, public relations, or a related field. Pennsylvania does not issue a state license for this role, but employers across the state strongly favor candidates who hold credentials such as the Certified Fund Raising Executive designation or have completed coursework through AFP Greater Philadelphia or the Pittsburgh chapter of the Association of Fundraising Professionals, which offer local training and networking for emerging development professionals.
Which companies hire development coordinators in Pennsylvania?
Employers hiring development coordinators in Pennsylvania right now include Natural Lands, Genesis HealthCare, and American Heart Association, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Pennsylvania's dense network of research universities, major health systems, and regional nonprofits makes it one of the more active states for sustained development hiring year-round.
Which Pennsylvania cities have the most development coordinator jobs?
Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and Harrisburg account for the largest concentration of development coordinator openings in Pennsylvania. Philadelphia drives the most volume given its cluster of Ivy League-affiliated institutions, large hospital networks, and national nonprofit headquarters, while Pittsburgh's strength in academic medicine and community foundations sustains steady demand, and Harrisburg attracts openings tied to state government grantees and advocacy organizations.
Are there remote development coordinator jobs in Pennsylvania?
Yes, and more than many comparable roles, since development coordinators spend much of their time writing, researching prospects, and managing databases rather than working on-site. About 53% of development coordinator openings tied to Pennsylvania are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, reflecting how well-suited the desk and communications side of fundraising is to flexible arrangements. Grant writing and prospect research positions tend to post as remote most often, while event coordination and major gift roles are more likely to require regular in-person presence.
How can I get hired as a development coordinator in Pennsylvania with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is through a development associate or development assistant role at a Pennsylvania university or health system, where institutions such as Temple University, Drexel University, and large UPMC affiliates regularly hire candidates without prior fundraising experience and provide structured onboarding. Lateral moves from alumni relations, communications, or program coordination also convert well because the writing and relationship management skills transfer directly. Earning an AFP membership and completing their entry-level Fundamentals of Fundraising certificate course signals seriousness to Pennsylvania hiring managers and provides an edge over candidates with similar experience levels.
Where can I find and apply to development coordinator jobs in Pennsylvania?
You can find and apply to development coordinator jobs in Pennsylvania on Migrate Mate, which lists current Pennsylvania openings updated regularly.
