Summary
Tim Kuijsten is a policy professional with 11 years of experience at the intersection of housing, politics and communications, currently serving as (Senior) Beleidsmedewerker Koop & Kapitaalmarkt at the Ministry of Housing and lijsttrekker for ChristenUnie Amsterdam. He combines rigorous academic training in political science from Universiteit Leiden with hands-on campaign, advisory and research roles—most recently as strategic adviser to the ChristenUnie Tweede Kamerfractie—where he shaped communication strategies and coordinated high-profile political profiling. Tim is skilled in qualitative research, public-facing writing and stakeholder management, having led projects that link civil society, media and policymakers. Comfortable both in the policy machine and on the campaign trail, he brings a practical nose for implementation and a network spanning politics, journalism and social organisations. Colleagues describe him as diligent and willing to take on heavy lifting to deliver results, with an uncommon background that includes field research into radicalization and direct volunteer coordination.
