Senior Fellow (Federal Focused) - Remote

Overview

FGA is hiring a Senior Fellow to support and activate the federal agenda of one of the nation’s leading public policy organizations. If you aim to spend your time at the intersection of good ideas and real-world policymaking, if you’re mission-driven and team-oriented, and if you prefer to be in the middle of the action, not watching from the sidelines, you might be the right person for the job.

The Senior Fellow will play a key role of coordinating policy support for our federal policy priorities in Washington, D.C. On a given day or week, you may provide remote or in-person policy support in meetings on the Hill, help draft federal legislation and regulations, or develop policy memos and provide rapid-response policy analysis in coordination with our federal Outreach Team. For the right candidate, this is an opportunity to use your talents to make a real and lasting impact on the future of our country. This is a mid- to senior-level role that requires strong communication, policy analysis, legislative drafting, research, and presentation skills. To be clear: This isn’t an abstract “think” job with a think tank—this is the “doing” part.
