Doug joined UWC International in June 2021 and worked on National Committee Capacity Building until August 2023. In his current role as Funded Programmes Coordinator, Doug now manages various scholarship programmes which enable students from diverse backgrounds to attend UWC.

Since studying Mechanical Engineering at Strathclyde University in Glasgow, Doug has worked closely with volunteers in various NGOs and social enterprises in Thailand, UK, Germany and Greece. In his role before UWC, Doug was Volunteer Coordinator at Samos Volunteers, an NGO that provides psycho-social support for people living in the refugee camp on Samos, Greece. Before this he worked for Benefacto, a social enterprise that worked with companies to help get their staff volunteering in the UK.

Doug loves being part of organisations, like UWC, that bring people who would never usually meet together to share ideas, form friendships and learn from each other. Outside of work, he is happiest when reading, cycling, listening to podcasts, going to concerts or sitting in a beergarden on a sunny day. He is based in Berlin and speaks German and English.
