**About the job**:
As a member of Google’s Government Affairs and Public Policy team, you'll be part of a diverse 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.

As a Government Affairs and Public Policy Manager you'll help shape Google's policy efforts in Austria relating to platform regulation and economic policy. You will coordinate with the European and the global Government Affairs and Public Policy team, the business and product organizations, and key cross-functional partners to execute our policy strategy, and lead outreach to key stakeholders. You'll develop, organize, manage, and communicate critical plans, initiatives and campaigns, and strategy, while tracking various regulatory proposals and analyzing their potential impact on Google’s business.

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**:

- Work closely with international and regional teams and cross-functional colleagues from Legal, Communications, Marketing as well as other teams across Google to execute outreach programs on policy priorities.
- Develop and lead public policy campaigns across the full range of policy areas that impact Google and the web.
- Engage with industry players, think tanks, and key opinion formers to shape policy and dialogue on Google’s policy efforts.
- Monitor and research current and relevant emerging public policy issues.
- Build and drive a network of trade associations, industry partners, non-profit groups, and other stakeholders to support policies that will help create and maintain a user-focused online environment.
