Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolSamuel Kenny is an energetic public servant and AI policy specialist with 14 years of professional experience, currently serving as SEO Policy Adviser on the Civil Service Policy Fast Stream at the AI Security Institute. He led international AI safety reporting and advises on AI security while completing placements across DSIT and DWP focused on stakeholder engagement, communications, and employment policy for disabled people. A Fast Streamer with hands-on Whitehall experience from the Home Office internship to senior advisory roles, he combines practical policy delivery with cross-government coordination at G7-level forums. Trained in History and Politics at Oxford and studying Public Policy Analysis at King’s College London, he brings academic rigour to complex regulatory challenges. Not obviously public-facing, he also has a knack for revitalising neglected projects—his GitHub note, “blow the dust off...,” hints at a willingness to modernise and reinvigorate legacy work. Based in London, he blends political insight, stakeholder diplomacy, and a growing specialty in AI safety to shape pragmatic, evidence-led policy.
