Job Description

The U.S. Global Leadership Coalition (USGLC) is seeking a second Deputy Director of Government Relations to help lead a dynamic and high-performing Government Relations Team responsible for USGLC’s engagement with Congress on America’s role in the world and how strategic investments in diplomacy and international assistance, alongside a strong military, strengthen U.S. national security and our economic interests. The Deputy Director of Government Relations will be an experienced professional with the knowledge and connections to further enhance USGLC’s presence on Capitol Hill, build sustainable relationships with a broad array of Congressional offices, and advance our mission.

The position will report to the Director of Government Relations, work closely with the other Deputy Director of Government Relations, and reside in Washington, D.C.

Activities include engagement with Members of Congress and Congressional staff through direct lobbying; building relationships with Congressional caucuses and associations; planning and executing briefings, events, and advocacy days on Capitol Hill; convening and mobilizing national coalition partners; among others.
  • Serve as Expert Resource and Communicator. Play a lead role in USGLC’s legislative and budget analysis – staying up to date on the latest developments throughout the federal budget and appropriations process to maximize USGLC’s influence. Prepare written and oral communications for USGLC’s leadership, membership, and Congressional offices.
  • Represent USGLC. Effectively represent USGLC at public and private briefings, meetings, events, and community activities with Members of Congress, Congressional staff, and coalition members. Travel domestically on a limited basis to support USGLC’s national and state-based engagement with policymakers.
  • Government Relations Team Management. Help oversee a six-person Government Relations Team and other government relations consultants, as needed. Track metrics and progress in meeting deliverables and strategic objectives. Provide mentoring, coaching, and guidance to team members.

Position Requirements

The ideal candidate will have:

  • Minimum 5-8 years of relevant experience working with Members of Congress and their staff, including in government service, policy, advocacy, or government relations.
  • Extensive knowledge of Capitol Hill and Congressional processes and dynamics, including an understanding of the federal budget and appropriations process, foreign policy, and international development.
  • Relationships with current policymakers – including Congressional staff and relevant executive branch officials – and the ability to deepen and grow this network.
  • Ability to think strategically and create and execute multi-faceted advocacy strategies.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, exceptional attention to detail, and the ability to distill complex information into high-quality analytical written products.
  • Demonstrated ability to set priorities, meet deadlines, work under pressure in a team-based environment, and proactively anticipate and address department needs.

Compensation

A projected salary range of $90,000 to $120,000 will be offered, commensurate with experience and qualifications. The USGLC also provides a package of benefits, including health and disability insurance, retirement plan, paid annual and sick leave and federal holidays.
