About the role

Americans for Responsible Innovation (ARI) seeks a Vice President of State Government Affairs to create and lead a new nationwide state advocacy operation from Washington, DC. You will build a four-regional team, coordinate with federal staff, and defend against restrictive AI legislation while promoting responsible policy. You will drive ARI’s fifty-state strategy, supervise contract lobbyists, and engage with national bodies like NCSL, NGA, and state legislators to advance ARI’s mission.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
