ORGANIZATIONAL BACKGROUND
Founded in 1908, the National Governors Association is the bipartisan organization of governors from the 55 states, territories and commonwealths. NGA's mission is to share best practices, address issues of national and state interest, and drive innovative solutions that improve state government and support the principles of federalism.
NGA's Center for Best Practices is the policy and research arm that helps governors develop and implement solutions to public policy challenges. NGA's State-Federal Affairs group assists in ensuring the voice of governors is heard in Congress and the Executive Branch, and NGA's Communications team collaborates with governors' offices to amplify bipartisan messaging and strategy.
Throughout the year, NGA convenes governors and senior advisors for meaningful discourse, problem-solving and thought leadership.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE POLICY ANALYST (WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT AND ECONOMIC POLICY)
The Policy Analyst's primary responsibilities will be to support governors on a range of policy issues related to workforce and economic development, including work-based talent strategies (such as apprenticeship, service-to-career pathways, and short-term education and training), the impact of AI on the workforce, workforce pathways for diverse populations (such as youth or those disconnected from the workforce), workforce program quality and accountability, entrepreneurship, and cross-system alignment across workforce and economic development.
Other important responsibilities of the Policy Analyst include:
  • Organize and facilitate state learning opportunities including virtual, in-person, and hybrid events such as workshops, seminars, meetings, and presentations;
  • Facilitate panel discussions, state strategy sessions, and other events for governors, senior state policy staff, and key stakeholders on state program and policy issues;
  • Provide state technical assistance for multiple program and policy issues;
  • Provide "best practice" information and consultative support to governors and their senior advisors in response to requests for assistance;
  • Develop blog posts, white papers, issue briefs, presentations, and memos on policy issues and best practices of relevance to governors and senior state policymakers;
  • Build and maintain relationships with high-level policymakers and key stakeholders;
  • Demonstrate a commitment to NGA's mission and goals to constructively serve the needs of all governors; and
  • Other duties as assigned by supervisor, Managing Director or President, Center for Best Practices.

  • Have foundational content knowledge in federal and state policy in the issue area;

  • Manage competing project deadlines and responsibilities;

  • Work independently, set priorities and problem-solve multiple issues at the same time;

  • Demonstrate strong analytical skills and experience interpreting and re-purposing research and best practices for policymakers in a timely and effective manner;
