About the job
As a Government Affairs and Public Policy Manager, you will shape Google's policy efforts in Poland related to regulatory topics and public affairs projects. You will coordinate with the global Government Affairs and Public Policy team, business and product organizations, key cross-functional partners to execute our policy strategy, and lead outreach to key stakeholders. You will develop, organize, manage, and communicate critical plans, initiatives 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.

- Represent Google's interests by engaging directly with policymakers, industry players, think tanks, and key opinion formers.
- Work closely with Legal, Communications, Marketing, and other teams across Google both locally and internationally to execute outreach programs on policy priorities.
- Build and drive a network of trade associations, industry partners, non-profit groups, and other stakeholders to support policies that will help create/maintain a user-focused online environment and an open internet.
- Advise internal teams on the public policy implications of their products, collaborating effectively with a cross-functional global team.
