📋 Description

• Sit at the center of ESIL’s legislative and advocacy work. • Operationalize ESIL’s priority campaigns by translating strategy into clear plans, timelines, and targets. • Coordinate legislative outreach with staff, champions, and contract lobbyists. • Track fast-moving political dynamics and ensure follow-through across staff, lobbyists, and partners. • Strengthen ESIL-led coalitions by clarifying roles, securing commitments, and ensuring partners are moving in sync toward shared legislative goals. • Represent ESIL in coalition spaces, legislative hearings, and partner meetings.

🎯 Requirements

• Hands-on experience running or supporting legislative or advocacy campaigns, ideally within Illinois. • Understanding of how policy moves through the legislature, including how targets are identified, champions are cultivated, opposition is navigated, and pressure is applied. • Comfortable tracking bills in real time, coordinating with lobbyists, and adjusting tactics quickly as political conditions shift. • Ability to break complex campaigns into executable steps, assign responsibility, track progress, and close loops relentlessly. • Strong judgment in assessing what is urgent, what is sensitive, and when to escalate. • Ability to operate in ambiguity and make smart calls with imperfect information. • Skills in building trust quickly across diverse partners, navigating power dynamics, and moving organizations toward action.
