This role is ideally suited for a candidate who has some pre-existing experience in government and external relations and who has a vital interest in international trade, business, and the transatlantic corridor. You should bring a good understanding of the interplay between governments and key stakeholders; related prior experience such as in a government office, advisory firm, think tank, or a trade/business association would be a plus. Most importantly you should have a keen interest in transatlantic policy issues, be passionate about shaping policy, and be excited, curious, and proactive in helping us to make BAB a visible and relevant organisation in the field of policy and trade. To be successful in the role you should possess a variety of skills ranging from being able to conduct concise research independently, drafting policy texts in all forms, planning and delivering policy briefings and meetings, as well as liaising with internal colleagues and external stakeholders at all levels.

This role will provide a great opportunity to quickly become a key player in transatlantic policy making and our community. You will be able to grow and prove your skillset in areas such as policy writing, stakeholder management, project management, external affairs, and business development. There is great potential for progression within this role for a driven and enterprising post holder.
