Corporate Affairs & Public Policy Manager
Experienced professional to first-line manager
Protects and promotes the company's licence to operate in a market or region: monitors and analyses legislation and regulation that affect the business (nutrition and health, alcohol, packaging and waste, taxation, sustainability, workforce), builds relationships with policymakers, regulators, trade associations, NGOs and community stakeholders, drafts policy positions and briefings, runs issue-advocacy campaigns and coalitions with the industry and, in bottler systems, the franchise partners, and coordinates with communications, legal, sustainability and the brand teams on reputational risk. Success is judged on policy outcomes and risks anticipated early, the quality of the company's relationships and reputation with external stakeholders, briefings leaders can act on, and advocacy conducted within the company's integrity rules.
