Big opportunity: Work with us on transportation policy!

Do you want to play an integral part in helping the Washington region solve tricky transportation challenges, improve transit service, make roads safer, reallocate scarce curbside space, prepare for new technologies, and make our transportation systems more inclusive, equitable and sustainable? Are you great at taking complicated problems and making them simple, and steering a room full of important stakeholders to actually get some things done?

Greater Greater Washington is seeking a Transportation Policy Advisor to lead coalitions of transportation stakeholders and support our other thriving transportation policy and advocacy initiatives. The Transportation Policy Advisor will work with the rest of the GGWash transportation policy team to develop our agenda and expand our profile in the region.

We’re pretty excited to be able to post this position. We’re looking for a responsible, self-motivated, entrepreneurial, organized professional with excellent communication skills and experience working on transportation policy issues with the ability to work constructively with stakeholders in government, advocacy, business, and more. And we want someone with a demonstrated interest in sustainability and equity as essential considerations in transportation policy.

This person will be helping our growing transportation team to lead and support coalitions and figure out the best ways to really move things forward on the issues we all work on. That includes bus priority, Metro hours and budgets, congestion pricing, curbside management, safety, bicycles and scooters, walkability, autonomous vehicles and more, with a special focus on how we do so equitably and sustainably.
