Senior Account Director, Public Affairs & Government Relations
MikeWorldWide is seeking a well-rounded senior government relations professional in its Trenton-based office. This is a high-growth, high-visibility role for a client service-obsessed leader with experience leading multi-dimensional, multi-workstream accounts. Our ideal candidate is a modern, integrated thinker with a command of the rapidly changing environment of public opinion and public policy: well-versed in the use of digital and paid strategies, and rooted in active, hands-on management of government relations and public affairs. If you understand and live in the intersection of public policy, public relations and community relations and possess a deep understanding of these dynamics in New Jersey, this role is for you.
We are seeking candidates with a demonstrated ability to think critically and influence elected and appointed officials to move to action. A bias toward action and willingness to be hands-on with teams and client deliverables in fast-moving situations is highly valued.
Experience and background in campaigns, New Jersey Legislature, Governor’s Administration, or New Jersey’s Congressional offices are required. The position also will involve participation in comprehensive public affairs and legislative strategies, and direct outreach to pubic officials, community leaders, business organizations and other key New Jersey stakeholders and influencers.
Agency experience is preferred, but individuals with experience in New Jersey public policy at the federal, state, or local level is important and will be considerably weighted. Also, those who have engaged in direct government relations as in-hopuse counsel or lobbyists for New Jersey based entities are encouraged to apply. Those interested should be prepared to provide writing samples and case studies of programs managed and implemented by the candidate.
Candidates will be expected to operate in a client-facing capacity, including participation in regular meetings virtually and in person within New Jersey. There also will be involvement in client events, business development and campaign activities that include participation in forums outside of the home/office.
Experience in political campaigns and a strong understanding of legislative process – a strong plus.
