Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPete Masters is a humanitarian-focused program and community leader with 11 years’ experience blending digital mapping, innovation and communications to support crisis response and public health. As Special Projects Advisor at the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team and former Head of Community, he has stewarded large volunteer mapping initiatives and operationalised tools and workflows used by NGOs worldwide. His background at Médecins Sans Frontières spans medical innovation, field mapping and coordinating global communications—experience that combines technical coordination with on-the-ground training in countries such as Bangladesh and the DRC. Pete also brings project management and sustainability credentials through local renewable energy work and a Climatebase fellowship, showing a commitment to practical climate solutions. A former carpenter and long-time digital manager, he pairs hands-on problem solving with strategic community building, often translating messy field needs into scalable processes. Based in the Derbyshire Dales, he’s equally comfortable running community strategy meetings as he is training volunteers to map hard-to-reach places.
