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.

  • 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.

  • 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.
