Job description

Description
We strongly encourage people of color, transgender and non-binary people to apply. HRC is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes everyone, including non-LGBTQ+ people, to join our team. Don't meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that people from marginalized communities are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single qualification. At HRC, we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive and authentic workplace, so if you're excited about this role but your past experience doesn't align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
Position Summary:
The Deputy Director, Government Affairs is a regular, full-time position reporting directly to the Senior Director of Government Affairs in the Federal and State Affairs Department. The Deputy Director works with a team of colleagues throughout the organization to represent HRC's policy positions on Capitol Hill and with federal agencies. The Deputy Director also works with the boards, coalition partners, and consultants to develop, implement, and coordinate legislative strategies to advance the federal policy work of HRC. Advocates have issue-specific responsibilities and are expected to play a leadership role in these areas. One of the main portfolios of this role will be health care, including HIV policy.
This role requires regular, on-site attendance of at least two days a week to promote the overall work culture and environment of teamwork, personal interaction, and supervision to efficiently achieve the organization's mission of ending discrimination against LGBTQ+ people and realize a world that achieves fundamental fairness and equality for all.
Please submit a cover letter with your application for the position.
Position Responsibilities:
  • Work with the Government Affairs team to develop and execute comprehensive strategies to lobby members of Congress to secure pro-equality protections for the LGBTQ+ community;
  • Develop and maintain relationships with offices on Capitol Hill to advocate on behalf of the LGBTQ+ community;
  • Develop and maintain relationships with executive branch officials in assigned issue areas;
  • Work closely with external partners in coalitions and help manage and strengthen coalition relationships, including providing leadership in HRC-led coalitions;
  • Be responsible for a portfolio of issue areas, including health care and HIV, which entails developing subject-matter expertise, tracking legislative and administrative developments, participating in relevant coalitions, and working with congressional and administrative staff to advance priorities in these areas;
  • Plan events and briefings for Members of Congress and congressional staff;
  • Communicate to, and coordinate with, other Federal and State Affairs Division staff, Communications, Equality Programs, and other divisions of HRC to leverage the resources of HRC to support our public policy goals;
  • Attend events, including events on behalf of the HRC Political Action Committee.
  • Additional duties/responsibility as requested in accordance with the overall legislative and administrative strategy of HRC.

Position Qualifications:
  • At least eight years of experience in federal policy and demonstrated knowledge about the legislative process required.
  • Demonstrated expertise in one or more of the major issue areas on HRC's legislative agenda, particularly health care policy.
  • Must be a team player and have outstanding written and verbal communication skills.
  • Strong commitment to and interest in the rapidly changing LGBTQ+ equality movement and a working knowledge of LGBTQ+ issues and racial justice issues.
  • Must be dedicated to the values of HRC: responsibility; equity and intersectionality; learning and openness; boldness; resilience; heart; respect; and community and teamwork.
