@hamzahislam
I am an Economics graduate focused on public policy analytics.
What I'm looking for
I am an Economics graduate with hands-on experience in policy evaluation, data analysis, and public service operations. I am mission-driven and committed to evidence-based decision making and social impact.
At the Department for Transport I evaluated bids, created Excel dashboards, and identified critical inconsistencies that were adopted across the department. I also averted data loss during a system failure, saving thousands in taxpayer funds.
I have supported court operations, managed finances for 150+ pupils, raised over £6,000 for charity deployments, and volunteered extensively in youth and community programmes. I seek opportunities to apply analytics and impact evaluation to public policy to deliver measurable social outcomes.
