Job opening at Open Data Institute: Community Engagement Manager

Hi all,

I thought this position may be of interest to some members of this list:
http://theodi.org/jobs/community-engagement-manager
(2 yrs fixed term, £40-45k, based in Shoreditch, East London, home of
"Silicon Roundabout")

>From the job advert:

"In this role you’ll be instrumental in strengthening the ODI’s
relationship with the open data community, from developers to policy
makers, researchers and executives. You’ll be based at the ODI’s
offices in Shoreditch, at the heart of the London startup scene, but
connected to the latest developments in open data across Europe and
beyond.

Reporting to the Head of Research, the main focus of your efforts will
be managing the dissemination and outreach activities of EU-funded
research projects. These collaborative projects will bring together
teams of researchers and companies from across Europe to explore the
latest challenges in the field of open data and create technology
platforms to help policy makers, developers and startup companies
understand the open data landscape and build new
applications/businesses. The ability of these projects to reach and
engage their target audiences will be central to their success, giving
you a prime opportunity to demonstrate and develop your community
engagement skills.

A key factor in your own success in this role will be your ability to
work closely with colleagues across the ODI team (from membership to
communications, training and events) to help ensure all our work has
the greatest possible impact."

Cheers,

Tom.
