My Future Dream Job

🔥Finalist Dutch Podcast Awards 2022 🔥

I developed and produced the podcast series My Future Dream Job for the University of Twente. In this 10-part series, I dive into jobs that are just beginning to take shape or don’t exist yet but could be on your radar in 2030. Each episode introduces a new profession!

I explore roles like a Hypothesis Extractor, Data Security Detangler, or Battery Materials Sourcing Engineer—careers that will make an impact and drive progress. In this English-spoken podcast, I interview scientists about their visions for the future and construct together a future job offering. We cover topics like cybersecurity, climate adaptation, and energy transition. They paint a picture of the essential jobs of tomorrow, roles we can’t even imagine today.

In 2021, this podcast was nominated for a Dutch Podcast Award, marking the first time a podcast from the academic field made it to the shortlist. Dutch newspaper Het Parool even featured an article about My Future Dream Job.
