Sophie L Parker

Online Safety Supervision Manager
Ofcom

I’m a dual UK/US citizen with deep expertise at the intersection of technology, regulation, and public policy. I’m a strategic leader with a strong track record of advancing trust and safety initiatives, shaping digital governance, and driving global regulatory strategy. I work directly with some of the world’s largest tech platforms, giving me a clear understanding of their challenges and how they can improve online safety outcomes. I excel at building high-impact relationships across government, industry, and civil society to support safer, more accountable digital ecosystems.

At Ofcom, the UK’s digital and communications regulator, I led the development of multi-year strategic roadmaps and external engagement strategies. I’m skilled at convening expert communities, translating complex regulatory insights into actionable frameworks, and managing high-performing, cross-functional teams. I bring a global perspective and a nuanced understanding of UK, US, and EU digital policy landscapes. I hold a Master’s in Government and Regulation and an MBA Essentials certificate from the London School of Economics.
