Policy Manager

Position Description:
The Society for Research in Child Development (SRCD) is a professional research society established in 1933 by the National Research Council of the National Academy of Sciences. Our diverse membership of more than 4,000 scientists contributes to the child development field. Within our Policy Department, we advance our members interests in science advocacy, we implement a federal, Congressional and state-level Fellowship program, and we advance evidence-based policymaking.
We are looking for a motivated and skilled Policy Manager to join our Policy Department and help us improve the lives of children and families. You will be joining us at an exciting moment for our policy work. We have just announced the Child Policy Hub, a new suite of policy programs that have come out of our strategic plan for policy. In the Hub, programs will connect policymakers with researchers, train researchers on policy skills, and produce policy briefs on pressing issues facing children and families.
You will help drive forward this new Child Policy Hub, building our members’ capacity to engage on policy issues and playing a crucial role in advancing evidence-based child and family policymaking. You will report directly to the Director for Policy and work collaboratively with colleagues in the Policy Department and across the organization to achieve these goals. You will be an ambitious policymaker with an understanding of basic research methodologies, and a passion for evidence-based policymaking. You will have several years of experience in federal policymaking. You will be driven to make children and families’ lives better, and be passionate about diversity, equity and inclusion. With exceptional communications skills, both written and oral, you can also work independently and collaboratively. This work is dynamic, creative, collaborative, and has real-world impacts on child development.
Join us at the ground floor and help build a new and exciting policy program.
Major Duties and Responsibilities Include:
- Build and maintain relationships with key stakeholders on issue areas, including federal and Congressional staff, think tanks, advocacy organizations and coalition groups, and others.
- Help build new Child Policy Hub programs at every stage: contribute ideas, project manage new content creation, oversee the delivery of Congressional Hill days, train members, and more.
- Consider how diversity, equity, and inclusion is built into all of our activities.
- Connect and support our members to engage on child & family policy issues, including designing, writing, editing, and delivering trainings, and connecting members with relevant advocacy and policy groups
- Author and co-produce policy briefs and other materials (e.g., fact sheets, blogs, memos, briefings, presentations, website content).
- Monitor science and child & family policy advocacy activities in relevant agencies, in Congress and at the state-level.
- Develop targeted dissemination plans for policy-related products tailored to key policy audiences.
- Supervise a Policy Associate(s) and/or Policy Intern.
- Look for continuous improvement by tracking and analyzing performance metrics for our policy goals.
- Coordinate SRCD’s other policy-related activities and events, as needed.
**Required Skills**:
We strive to use diversity, equity and inclusion best practices at SRCD. This means we will use a skills-based interview system. This system looks for that spark of potential, based on concrete examples of the skills you need to do this job. We will score you on the following four skills:
- Communication: Excellent written and oral communication skills. Communicate in a straightforward, honest and engaging manner, adapting communications for different audiences to maximize understanding and impact. Be able to translate and summarize research studies into plain English. Encourage the use of different communication methods, including digital resources, icons and visual displays. Ensure communication has a clear purpose and adapts to people’s individual needs. Share information as appropriate and check understanding. Ensure that important messages are communicated with colleagues and stakeholders respectfully, taking into consideration the diversity of interests.
- Decision making: Analyze and use a range of relevant, credible information from internal and external sources to support decisions. Understand your own level of responsibility and empower others to make decisions where appropriate. Invite challenge and where appropriate involve others in decision making. Consult with others to ensure the potential impacts on end users have been considered. Display confidence when making difficult decisions, even if they prove to be unpopular. Present strong recommendations in a timely manner outlining the consideration of alternative options, costs, benefits and risks.
- Leadership and management: Promote diversity, equity, and inclusion, respec
