About the job

As a member of Google’s Government Affairs and Public Policy team, you'll be part of a global government affairs team, working across regions, product areas, and functions. You’ll combine creativity and intellectual excellence with the organizational skills to manage various campaigns, projects and initiatives. In this role, you’ll advocate for Google to bring external perspectives back into the company to inform our perception and direction. You're passionate about the opportunity to shape the future of how we use and build technology for everyone.

Google takes its responsibilities seriously, including engaging with government and other stakeholders on important public policy challenges. The Government Affairs and Public Policy (GAPP) team leads the company’s engagement with executive branch officials, legislators, regulators and third-parties in the formation of public policy. Working closely with Google leaders, GAPP seeks to identify key policy issues, listen carefully to others’ views and opinions, and distill and share the company’s perspective on those issues with external stakeholders. While we focus on challenges affecting the internet, our issue areas are increasingly broad and encompass many areas where public policy, business, and technology intersect.

Responsibilities

Drive the development and execution of Australia’s strategic public affairs direction, owning end-to-end workstreams for high-priority policy programs and advocacy campaigns.
Achieve Government Affairs and Public Policy (GAPP) objectives through seamless cross-functional collaboration with marketing, communications, and Google organization to amplify our impact.

Represent the region in key cross-functional forums, ensuring that strategy is grounded in credible external policy dynamics and research insights.
Craft strategic messaging and high-impact content for executive engagements and public platforms, elevating Google’s presence at forums, workshops, and summits.
