State Policy Network is a nonprofit network that partners with state-based policy organizations to advance state-level public policy solutions and strengthen federalism. It provides strategy support, targeted grants, leadership training, research and communications resources, and facilitates peer-to-peer collaboration across its affiliates to implement long-term, legally resilient reforms. SPN focuses on empowering state leaders, influencing public policy debates, and building durable organizational capacity across its network of state and national partners.

📋 Description

• Build and lead proactive, multi-state issue campaigns. • Assess policy landscapes, including affiliate activity, legislative and regulatory fights, opposition strategies, and key stakeholders. • Design multi-state campaign strategies and secure leadership approval and stakeholder alignment. • Build trusted relationships with affiliates and coalition partners and align their strengths around shared policy goals. • Establish regular coordination with Communications and the Center for Practical Federalism. • Partner with the Senior Director of Policy and Vice President of Programs to develop compelling funding narratives from research and campaign plans. • Review and manage contractor scopes, deliverables, and execution. • Redirect contractor capacity as campaign priorities evolve.

🎯 Requirements

• At least eight years of relevant experience in issue advocacy, policy, or government affairs, with a strong understanding of how state-based organizations achieve policy wins. • Strategic judgment: ability to read political dynamics, identify key opportunities, and turn complex landscapes into practical campaign plans. • Relationship skills to earn trust across organizations, align competing interests, and influence people who do not report to you. • Entrepreneurial self-starter who takes initiative, follows through, and owns outcomes. • Experience with an SPN affiliate or another state-based advocacy organization. • Political strategy, campaign experience, or work with elected officials is a plus. • Availability to travel, as requested in the application instructions.
