Drive coordinated engagement across federal and state levels, aligning legislative and regulatory strategies to amplify impact and credibility.
Oversee key issue portfolios (e.g., chemical management and packaging).
Lead regulatory advocacy across agencies (e.g., EPA, FDA, OSHA, and others): shape rulemaking and guidance, lead comment strategies, track implementation, and coordinate multi-jurisdictional responses.
Direct advocacy planning, stakeholder mapping, and sequencing to secure durable outcomes.
Ensure compliance with all lobbying disclosure, ethics, and reporting requirements.
Issues Management & Rapid Response
Establish proactive horizon-scanning and issues-management capabilities to anticipate shifts and mobilize rapid responses.
Lead coordinated responses during high-stakes moments and drive scenario planning and risk assessment for leadership and the Board.
Coalitions & Public Positioning
Participate in and help steer pragmatic coalitions that align stakeholders behind shared policy objectives.
Shape visibility strategies in partnership with Communications to reinforce the association's reputation as a science-based, trusted voice.
Deliver compelling testimony, comment letters, and thought leadership that influence substance and narrative.
Team Leadership & Organizational Integration
Lead, coach, and grow a high-performing Government Affairs team and manage external advisors.
Drive a collaborative, inclusive culture; embed effective operating rhythms, clear KPIs, and continuous improvement.
Ensure seamless integration with all internal teams to amplify impact for members.
