Eduardo Pitts Araujo

Recent masters graduate in globalisation, business and development who is looking to start a career in Impact Investment. I am highly adaptable, multilingual and a quick learner. Furthermore, I am eager to carry out a career that is rewarding, impactful and that I can be proud of. 

I currently work as the Political & Communications Intern at the British Embassy in Santo Domingo. This dynamic multifaceted role consists in writing political briefs on stakeholders and occurrences as they pertain to British interests and dealings in the Dominican Republic; aiding embassy event planning and execution, translation and interpreting during events and receptions, high-level political and business stakeholder engagement for special visa requests; project management for embassy development projects. 

Recently completed Masters in Globalisation, Business and Development. A course which surveyed the contemporary state of global business with the aim of exploring current and possible methods for harnessing the private sector for developmental purposes. Encasing global governance, global value chains and business models with positive impacts. 

I also hold a joint honours undergraduate degree in International Development and Sociology. This course explored current global challenges, their historical origins and the anthology of development efforts to solve them; including explorations of current international political systems of aid and international development missions and theory. During my sociology degree I focused on political economy and on divulging the prominent theories of this subject matter. I also took particular interests to the manifestations of micro-sociological observations as a result of overarching macro-sociological ones.
