Jazz FM, which had previously been limited to only London, the North West and West Midlands on DAB, has now launched nationally. Jazz FM originally launched in 1990 as a station for London before being re-launched as a digital-only station in October 2008 under the Guardian Media Group.

This change is another in a series that began with the restructuring of its sales team with Jo Coltman being promoted from Head of Client Development to director of sales and the appointment of Yoel Kenan as the station’s first Managing Director.

Kenan said: “These are exciting times for Jazz FM as we expand our audience and the way they connect with the station. We have restructured our sales department under the leadership of Jo Coltman to assist our advertisers and brands in implementing a range of services so they can engage with our distinctive audience.”
