Position Overview
Director of US Government Strategy & Engagement is responsible for leading Metrea’s development and execution of strategy to engage with U.S. government stakeholders, particularly U.S. Congress. Government Strategy and Engagement supports engagement with stakeholders, decision-makers, and influencers that cut across multiple areas of focus in the U.S. government. The role includes the market layers of legislative, policy, regulatory, and requirements. U.S. Government Strategy and Engagement is a subset of Strategic Engagement. U.S. Government Strategy and Engagement includes mapping, networking, collecting, and shaping the U.S. federal and, where applicable, state and U.S. territory, environment to identify or create new business opportunities (prospects) as well as to mitigate risk to existing business (programs), particularly in terms of identifying, developing, and maintaining key relationships with legislative branch staff of the U.S. government to advance Metrea’s objectives.
D/USGE will be a senior member of the Strategy team and is expected to contribute across the Strategy team and wherever relevant to the enterprise. Must be willing and eligible to register as a lobbyist. Direct experience with legislative oversight, authorization, and/or appropriation of U.S. defense policies and programs is desired.
D/USGS RESPONSIBILITIES
(1) Engaging with U.S. Government (“IN”)
Mapping
Work to develop a detailed understanding of the influencers, stakeholders, and decision-makers in the legislative and executive branches of U.S. government, particularly those who influence Department of Defense and related agency policy, authorization, and appropriation decisions. Provide understanding in particular of the relationship between the legislative and executive branches of U.S. government with regard to funding the U.S. military across key phases of the budgeting and legislative fiscal year cycles. This includes all the market layers, formal and informal decision makers and influencers, and the processes for determining requirements, making acquisition decisions, providing funding, and monitoring implementation.
Networking
Using the customer and market maps, D/USGS will be responsible for managing the broader Metrea engagement with federal government communities, particularly U.S. Congress, as well as conducting engagement directly with relevant stakeholders and influencers, all with the goal of increasing Metrea’s access and understanding. In particular, D/USGS will lead Metrea consideration of how to build and maintain relationships with key elected officials of U.S. government.
Collecting
Using the mapping and networking above, D/USGS will be responsible for collecting, collating, and sharing information related to business opportunities and market intelligence emanating from U.S. Congress, DoD, and other federal government stakeholders, with the goal of identifying or creating new opportunities, and identifying and mitigating risk to current programs.

Support decision-making processes
Contribute to the development of investment briefs and memos and participate in the decision-making process used to assess organic and strategic opportunities, with a particular focus on whether the opportunity properly accounts for policy and political trends and dynamics and how to approach engagement with U.S. Congress, DoD, and other U.S. government stakeholders.
