What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an entry-level policy, administration, public affairs or communication role in Edinburgh.

I am a multilingual graduate with a background in compliance-sensitive administrative work and direct experience handling members of the public professionally in busy festivals, political events, and cafés.

At Enlighten Think Tank, I researched Scottish and UK policy for a dissertation project on political cooperation, collective governance, and corporatism. I also wrote blog content which was published, making my research accessible to a public audience.

At Enlighten’s political events, I built relationships with stakeholders and guests, and organised a discussion panel at the University of Edinburgh.

At Les Impressions Nouvelles, I gained experience in the book industry. I proofread publications and corrected layouts, and supported the team at the Brussels Book Fair and Angoulême Comics Festival. I also managed social media activity and correspondence with prospective authors.

At the Centre des technologies de l'information de l'État (CTIE) in Luxembourg, I supported the digitalisation of legal and administrative processes and produced content for Guichet.Lu. I contributed to trilingual translation and learned basic HTML in under a month.
