• Agree in partnership with business leaders where legislative and regulatory change presents risk or opportunity and determine appropriate company response
• Identify government contacting opportunities and connect the firm’s business leaders with key decision-makers in charge of relevant global procurement projects
• Ensure coordination of the company’s positions through understanding different and potentially conflicting perspectives and interests across the businesses

• Proven experience of influencing the legislative and regulatory agenda
• Understanding of business issues and content across business segments
• Demonstrated ability to handle conflict and have difficult conversations
