Would you like to #hire me? I'm looking for an employer in #Berlin

I do #research, #training, #comms, and #policy. I know about how #technology, #society, and #politics interact

I’m looking for work that does social good – beyond that I’m #opentowork in all sorts of roles🧵👇
I’ve helped create #datapolicy, #counterdisinformation, and #digitalskills functions in the UK #civilservice (including No10 Downing Street & DCMS) - e.g.

webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ukgwa/20200203…

gov.uk/government/pub…
I’ve done social media research with the prestigious UK think-tanks @Demos and CASM Technology, and have a PhD in sociology of social media with @stsucl.

See e.g. this on Ukraine and disinfo: files.casmtechnology.com/message-based-… or some academic writing jcom.sissa.it/author/oliver-…
I’ve written about tech platforms for the Tony Blair @InstituteGC and government modernisation for the @BennettInst for Public Policy (I was a runner up in their Prospect Prize)

files.casmtechnology.com/message-based-…
I’ve also set up a small business The Data Skills Consultancy @DataSkillTweets with the aim of spreading and supporting data skills. Website has resources inc. fun data explainer cartoons dataskillsconsulting.com/training
I get lots of compliments for my writing, presenting, and training. I’m passionate about team culture and wellbeing. I speak German to B1 level and am actively improving. I can code in Python and MySQL a bit, and I’m very handy with Excel/Googlesheets, and can use dataviz tech.
I read very widely, closely follow news and politics trends, and do a bit of superforecasting. I’m enthusiastic, and people say I’m fun to have around.

If any of that sounds appealing, I would love to chat. And please do RT & share with your contacts!

In new year mode, here’s some thoughts on my 2021 experience of leaving employment, going #freelance, and starting a business. I’ll do 4 good things, 4 bad things, and 4 bits of advice.
Context: In Aug I started The Data Skills Consultancy @DataSkillTweets. Goal = helping people/teams bring together data skills & soft skills.

I've worked a lot in that overlap (inc. doing a govt comms training programme on it out of No10) & think it's increasingly important.
Good #1: Was one cog in big machine -> now I see whole machine.

When I look at e.g. data skills cartoons I’ve made – I know design decisions behind them, how they fit into business plan, performance metrics, etc. It’s v satisfying.

(e.g. of cartoons )
