Vice President of Public Policy
Mississippi | $80,000–$100,000
Service Specialists recruiting agency is seeking a Vice President of Public Policy for a highly respected, mission- driven organization focused on advancing meaningful policy solutions that create greater opportunity for Mississippians. This is a senior level opportunity for a strategic, relationship-driven public policy professional who understands how ideas become policy—and how relationships, research, communication, and coalition building come together to create lasting change. The position offers flexibility to be based anywhere in Mississippi; however, regular travel to the Jackson area and a strong presence at the Mississippi State Capitol, particularly during the legislative session, will be essential.
In This Role
About you
We are looking for someone who combines policy expertise with exceptional relationship-building ability. You understand that meaningful policy change requires more than knowing legislation—it requires credibility, trust, diplomacy, persistence, and the ability to bring people together.
The Ideal Candidate
This role could be particularly compelling for an experienced government affairs professional, legislative staff leader, public policy executive, association leader, advocacy professional, attorney with significant legislative experience, or private-sector government relations professional ready to have a meaningful impact on Mississippi’s future.
