Center on Budget and Policy Priorities
Vice President for State Network Strategy
Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, Washington, District of Columbia, us, 20022
The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities (CBPP) is a nonpartisan research and policy institute that advances federal and state policies to help build a nation where everyone — regardless of income, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, ZIP code, immigration status, or disability status — has the resources they need to thrive and share in the nation’s prosperity.
CBPP combines rigorous research and analysis, strategic communications, and effective advocacy to shape debates, affect policy, and inform effective implementation both nationally and in states. It works closely with a broad set of national, state, and community organizations to design and advance policies that promote economic justice; improve health; broaden opportunity in areas like housing, health care, employment, and education; and lower structural barriers for people of color and others in communities that continue to face systemic barriers to opportunity.
To support this work, CBPP seeks a Vice President for State Network Strategy. The ideal candidate will be a strategic and equity-focused leader with strong advocacy skills and successful fundraising experience. The Vice President will collaborate with network leaders to implement a clear vision and strategy for the Partnership and lead teams that support network governance, strengthen state organizations, actualize the network’s commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion, cultivate and expand funding sources to sustain and transform the Partnership’s power, and prepare the next generation of state fiscal policy leaders.
Responsibilities:
Collaborate with the Partnership’s steering committee and funders, as well as SFP’s fundraising team, to increase the Partnership’s financial sustainability and promote its work to funders, partners, and other stakeholders.
Collaborate with SFP’s two other Vice Presidents to ensure that team goals and cross-team efforts align with the Partnership’s vision and direction and advance CBPP’s mission.
Promote and help fundraise for a wide array of equity and inclusion-focused network initiatives.
Serve as a national spokesperson for both the Partnership and CBPP at events involving some of the nation’s leading advocacy organizations, policymakers, and philanthropic leaders.
Engage in strategic conversations across SFP, CBPP, and Partnership leaders around the Partnership’s crucial tax and budget advocacy work.
Provide strategic leadership for SFP’s efforts to strengthen policy and advocacy leadership pipelines.
Contribute to the vision for the Partnership’s marquee convenings, including the biannual Impact and Connect conferences.
Manage up to three sub-team leads and support them in managing their staff.
Qualifications:
At least ten years of relevant experience in a combination of policy impact work, partnerships, movement building, fundraising, and/or national network engagement.
Understanding of policies and programs that dismantle structural barriers to equity and opportunity.
Exceptional leadership skills and a highly collaborative management style that centers equity and inclusion.
Demonstrated experience cultivating philanthropic relationships.
Experience working in a network/federated environment; strong commitment to collaboration and partnership.
Exceptional ability to effectively navigate misunderstanding and conflicts.
Excellent writing and public speaking skills.
Ability to communicate clearly and directly with funders, national partners, and others.
Exceptional ability to respond to multiple demands and competing priorities in a complex, fast-paced policy environment.
CBPP currently operates on a hybrid work schedule that includes at least two days per week in-person at our Washington, D.C. office. We will consider remote candidates for this position, but all candidates should expect to travel at least four times a year for SFP and/or Partnership events.
Terms of Employment: full-time, exempt.
Compensation: The salary range for the role is $175,000 to $200,000 annually, with the exact salary to be determined based on total relevant experience. Excellent benefits are included.
