Kieran is Programme Manager for International Migration Strategies at the RSO.

His work supports practical policy coordination between Member States through regional forums, including the Six Country Irregular Migration (SCIM) initiative, and targeted capacity-building activities.

Prior to joining the RSO, Kieran worked in the UK Government on immigration and border security, supporting the delivery of UK border measures during the COVID-19 pandemic, alongside upstream migration programmes and work on transnational organised crime. He later led programmes in the Cabinet Office on national security priorities, covering civil contingencies, critical infrastructure, and international security with a focus on the Asia-Pacific region.

Recommended book: The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini – A deeply human story set against conflict in Afghanistan, exploring themes of friendship, betrayal, and redemption. While not focused on migration policy, it offers insight into how conflict, displacement, and fractured communities shape people’s lives over time.
