Alex Schlotzer’s Summary

My expertise has been in the areas of online organizing and activism and the mechanisms needed for this work to be of most benefit to issue-based and election campaigns. This expertise also includes providing advice and detail on political strategies and messages, including media and online components. The skills and knowledge I have gained have given me the ability to provide advice, information, analysis and guidance on all aspects of issue-based and election campaigns

I have spent a predominant part of my working life working in and for not-for-profit organisations, both community-based and student organisations. I have held a range of paid and voluntary positions at all levels within such organisations. In my various capacities I have provided advice, direction, research, information, analysis and briefings; as well as personal commitment and support.

Throughout my working life I have continued to be a volunteer in a range of areas of personal interest, as well as maintained an active interest in local issues and affairs. In addition I have worked on a number of issue-based and election campaigns, providing advice, direction and analysis based on significant research and access to a range of networks.
