Ben Johnson

I work at the intersection between science, publishing and communities, developing new ways for researchers to communicate their discoveries and strengthening relationships within the scientific community using innovative technology.

I have extensive experience in:
• Online community management
• Communications
• Scientific research
• Budgeting
• Line management
• Academic journals
• Journal acquisitions

I am also very active in my local community in South London. I am a trustee of United St Saviour’s Charity, which operate almshouses and distributes grants to local organisations in Southwark, London.

From 2014-18 I was a Councillor in the London Borough of Southwark and vice-chair of several committees including Planning and Scrutiny, as well as a past chair of Bermondsey and Old Southwark Liberal Democrats.
