23 Sep Maksim Volkhin joins Tactical Tech!

Cutting through the lightspeed that is AI and technological feats of today, Tactical Tech are developing the skills needed by society to handle the social and political impact of AI and digital acceleration. Their focus is primarily towards the impact of technology on children and young people, equipping journalists and the media with the know-how needed to navigate a changing landscape, combat misinformation and develop critical AI literacy.

In partnership with Upsall International, the search for an Operations Director found its way to Maksim Volkhin. Maksim joins the team with in-depth experience supporting operations, finance and grants processes throughout his career. By building a strong foundation in operational systems, Maksim’s search for the right home to apply his skills within a non-profit that shares his values and vision, has come to life. He comments: “I am particularly looking forward to getting to know the team, familiarising myself with the organisation’s operational processes, and becoming effective in the role as quickly as possible.” 

Tricia Placido, Senior Recruitment Consultant at Upsall International, led the recruitment search for the new Operations Director role, ensuring a smooth and streamlined process throughout. Pleased with the outcome, Stephanie Hankey, Co-Founder and Co-Executive Director at Tactical Tech, commented: “Overall the quality was very high. Upsall International was also able to find and present candidates that we think we would not have been able to find alone. It was also a pleasure to work with Zoe and Tricia who were always kind, patient, supportive and responsive.”

Tricia and the rest of us here at Upsall International are thrilled to have helped! And we’re all looking forward to finding out more about Maksim and his new team.
