Jonathan Arnott Email & Phone Number

I've always been driven by success: from becoming the youngest person ever to study Mathematics at Sheffield University (aged 15), to being a member of the European Parliament 2014-2019. I've appeared on media across four continents, including flagship radio and television programmes. I've been interviewed live on BBC, ITV, Sky, and been quoted or had articles published in the Telegraph, Guardian, Independent, Express, Sun and various local and regional newspapers and radio stations.More recently, I've focused on projects I enjoy doing:1. I run the publishing company Steel City Press, which I've taken from a startup to publishing 20+ books in the last two years of varying print runs.2. I do lecturing/training/teaching/coaching and consultancy work. During the pandemic I've done everything from seminars for postgraduates on politics to chess coaching as a Level 3 (National) chess coach, and writing technical reports on international affairs.If you have a project which is different or unusual, please don't hesitate to get in touch - particularly if it is charitable in nature.My knowledge of current affairs is always bang up-to-date. I'm a speed-reader and work at a very fast pace; as well as UK and EU politics, I've focused on the USA and many of the technical and legal issues on future UK-EU trade negotiations. More recently, I've kept up with most of the academic literature on COVID-19 and analysed data from across the world.Other skills include:Event management (I've organised everything from large conferences and press launches to bringing the World Championships of the board game Stratego to Sheffield)Boardroom-level experience (I'm accustomed to presenting to, attending and/or minuting boardroom meetings)Project organisation (from running election campaigns in England and Northern Ireland to overseeing the installation of new databases or working to set up a new charity)Management (teams of staff in different contexts from Head of Department when teaching to administrative responsibility for a medium-sized Head Office and managing my own team of staff when a Member of the European Parliament)Writing (4 published books on various subjects, and ghost-written others; currently I write op-ed pieces for various publications on an ad-hoc basis).Foreign language (Spanish relatively fluent - done TV/radio in Spanish; French basic conversational)Consultancy (Support and advice to a range of organisations, both commercial and non-profit)
