Vice President of Government Affairs

The Company is seeking a senior legal and government affairs executive to lead its U.S. federal and state advocacy strategy. Responsibilities include directing legislative advocacy and lobbying, guiding engagement with policymakers and executive-branch officials, and overseeing teams focused on public policy and government relations. The role also involves building relationships with elected officials and coalition partners, shaping legislative proposals and policy materials, and representing the organization in hearings and other public forums. The executive will coordinate advocacy priorities across functions, set team goals and resource plans, and mentor legal and policy professionals. Candidates must hold a Juris Doctor from an accredited law school and an active license to practice law in at least one U.S. jurisdiction. They should have at least 10 years of experience in legislative or executive-branch environments, including four years in federal legislative work, and five or more years managing attorneys and multidisciplinary teams. A sophisticated understanding of legislative processes, advocacy strategy, government relations, and public policy development is required, along with strong communication, relationship-building, judgment, and stakeholder-management skills. The role also requires willingness to travel as needed and to sign a statement of faith.
