Now Brewing - advisor, West region government affairs and public policy! #tobeapartner

From the beginning, Starbucks set out to be a different kind of company-one that celebrates coffee and human connection, while striving to do business in ways that are thoughtful, responsible, and grounded in service to others. We are known for developing extraordinary leaders who share this purpose and are driven to protect and grow a brand that matters to millions of people around the world.

In this role, you will shape and execute Starbucks government affairs strategy and represent Starbucks before state and local governments in the West region.

· Provide internal cross-functional leadership to advise on compliance of legislative and regulatory actions.

· Collaborate with federal and global government affairs teams to coordinate initiatives or activities where policy and government affairs priorities intersect.

· Manage outside consultants as needed.

We'd love to hear from people with:

Five or more years' experience working in federal, state or local government affairs, preferably in Sacramento or the West region.

Industry experience in food & beverage, retail or related industries.

Experience executing successful Government Affairs programs.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills. Practiced facilitator with excellent interpersonal and analytical skills.

Knowledge and experience working with policymakers across state and local government.

Ability to work well independently and with others.

Partners have access to short-term and long-term disability, paid parental leave, family expansion reimbursement, paid vacation from date of hire*, sick time (accrued at 1 hour for every 25 hours worked), eight paid holidays, and two personal days per year.

Additionally, Starbucks offers 100% upfront tuition coverage for a first-time bachelor's degree through Arizona State University's online program via the Starbucks College Achievement Plan, student loan management resources, and access to other educational opportunities. You will also have access to backup care and DACA reimbursement. Starbucks will comply with any applicable state and local laws regarding employee leave benefits, including, but not limited to providing time off pursuant to the Colorado Healthy Families and Workplaces Act, and in accordance with its plans and policies.
