Candidates with practical experience delivering policy consulting, academic research, project management, intelligence analysis, or lobbying and consulting services for the aforementioned institutions are highly preferred.

- Demonstrated ability to synthesize complex information into decision-ready briefings for senior legislative and executive authorities, covering politics, security, defense, economy and technology domains.

- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, capable of delivering rigorous, executive-level strategic counsel for corporate and institutional stakeholders.

- Adaptable to fast-paced, high-stakes working scenarios, with outstanding cross-team coordination, rapid research synthesis and project execution capabilities.
