Experience translating complex government rules and administrative code changes into actionable consulting opportunities and technical solutions.

Experience pitching to high-level government panels, writing compelling capture briefs, or negotiating strategic partnerships.

Preferred:

Experience managing a network of contacts among state and local elected officials, agency executives, procurement officers, and political stakeholders.

Experience leveraging specific government procurement vehicles and schedules (e.g., management consulting frameworks under NAICS 541611).

Background working within or directly advising regulatory bodies or administrative enforcement agencies.

The wage range for this role takes into account the wide range of factors that are considered in making compensation decisions including but not limited to skill sets; experience and training; licensure and certifications; and other business and organizational needs. The disclosed range estimate has not been adjusted for the applicable geographic differential associated with the location at which the position may be filled.
