Qualification
Required
3+ years of experience in account management, product management, political strategy / lobbying, business development, policy, or similar role
Be a proactive problem solver. We're looking for someone quick to try to solve new problems they come across, rather than hoping someone else will get it — whether it's a missing template for a recurring meeting or spilled cereal in the office
Have an understanding of how to make progress in challenging environments. You have a successful track record of stakeholder engagement and relationship management. You have a boundless commitment to the combination of creativity and persistence. Former colleagues describe you as the person who makes sure the changes that matter actually get implemented
Bring experience working in or with state governments. You've worked in or alongside Massachusetts government agencies, and have existing relationships you can leverage. You're able to hit the ground running and deepen engagement quickly by building on those trusted relationships
Be a process leader. Good ideas are nothing without excellent implementation. You're excited about building replicable, clear processes internally and externally. You're a clear communicator and documentation wizard with a successful track record of managing cross-functional teams
Open-minded, humble, and curious. You are eager to learn and especially capable of active and empathetic listening, particularly with our partners, who are often subject matter experts in their own right
Be comfortable with, and excited by, technology: You are eager to supportively guide data analysis and technology products. You're excited to work with a fast-moving team, helping it bring order and prioritization to complexity, while also respecting—and enjoying—the need to be flexible
Preferred
Have a connection to the criminal justice system and/or passion for doing work that matters: You have either lived or working experience with the operations and consequences of America's criminal justice system. You don't need to know everything about the field, but it is helpful if the design and efficacy of our criminal justice processes feel like issues that you cannot choose to ignore
