WHO YOU ARE

Our ideal senior policy advisor believes deeply in our mission and that we must work quickly to realize it. Beyond that:

• You move fluidly from strategy to execution. You appreciate the big picture and feel inspired to set a bold vision, but you know it's

all in the details. You manage projects fluidly, fiercely prioritize, and track timelines, data, and information in an organized and
systematic fashion. You don't drop balls, miss deadlines, or forget to respond to someone's inquiry.

• You build trust and leverage meaningful relationships to get things done. Your colleagues trust you to accomplish tasks in a

mutually beneficial, non-transactional way. You are both warm and demanding. You do the things you say you will do, hold others to
account, and support the people you engage in the pursuit of shared goals.

• You excel on a small, nimble team, and are happy wearing lots of hats. Working on a fast-paced and quickly growing team is

familiar — and you love it. You are flexible, comfortable with ambiguity, know how to roll with the punches, can bounce right back
after a setback, and get energy from building the plane as you fly it.

• You’re a driver of results. You pursue ambitious goals and use your exceptional strategic, analytical, and critical-thinking skills to

make data-informed decisions and achieve impressive outcomes.

• You’re on a quest for knowledge and absorb it like a sponge. When the path forward is unclear, you’re quick to dive into research

and soak up everything you can. You find out what’s already been done, what’s working and not working, and what the science says
to do next. You’re able to distill complex information into a concise set of findings and recommendations and effectively incorporate
feedback from your team. You’re constantly looking to expand your skills and expertise.

• You’re high-impact, low-ego, and kind to yourself and others. You choose optimism, assume the best, and resonate with our core

values (see below).

You will also need:

• A proven track record (3+ years) working on federal policy, on or off the Hill

• Familiarity with the state of the field, with a strong intuition for where policy will be most impactful in advancing equitable climate

change solutions

• Strong knowledge of climate energy issues, including

• technical knowledge related to carbon removal, use, and storage;

• knowledge on federal legislation and agency action related to energy, heavy industry, and climate change; and

• at a high level, industry knowledge related to technology development and commercialization.
