Senior Manager, Public Policy & Government Affairs
Eventbrite
Remote job description
THE ROLE
As a senior-level Eventbrite public policy and government affairs advocate, you'll work with our Head of Public Policy and Government Affairs to stay immersed and ahead of pertinent legislative, regulatory, political, and social issues impacting our business or user community. Your work will include a combination of global, federal, state, and local-level government affairs opportunities as well as a ground floor opportunity to help build Eventbrite's small business creator mobilization program.
THE CHALLENGE
In the last decade, Eventbrite has grown from a small US company to a complex global business and leader in ticketing. Accompanying this exciting growth is any number of complex regulations and laws impacting, among others, commercial business dealings, payment services, privacy, and ticketing that challenge our day to day operations. Rather than simply react, we want to get out in front, advocate for Eventbrite's business objectives and our community of users, and form relationships that will propel our mission.
THE TEAM
Eventbrite's mission is to bring the world together through live experiences. Eventbrite's Impact organization works with creators, nonprofit partners, and government officials to advance social progress and public policies that enable this mission to flourish. We create and execute initiatives and partnerships that facilitate positive change for society, creators, and our employees, ranging from fostering social connection to promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. We also advocate for technology and business laws and regulations that are crucial to the success of the creators and customers we serve.
At Eventbrite, we strive to support our Britelings and their loved ones through different stages of life with robust and attractive benefits, financial and physical wellness options, and great perks. In addition to offering a competitive salary and company stock, we have other great benefits available. In the Briteland, you'll find great medical plans, fertility and adoption benefits, wellness reimbursement, generous parental leave, and much more.
We care about your mental health and wellbeing.
Our employees enjoy free coaching sessions with Modern Health. We also offer free therapy sessions with a psychologist. You'll also have access to private medical insurance for you and your family, that includes dental care. And our wellness program to pay for your gym expenses.
We work hard to cultivate a diverse, equitable and inclusive culture where Britelings feel like they belong.
Employees can participate in resource groups and we offer programming throughout the year to support a diverse and inclusive workplace.
We offer ongoing training and career development that meets people where they are in their careers.
We offer unlimited access to courses in Udemy, leadership coaching for all managers, Briteling led talks, and weekly company-wide town halls with our CEO. We take culture seriously and design programs with employee feedback in mind to make Eventbrite a great place to work no matter where you work from in the world.
Work-life balance & flexibility is extremely important to us.
Our employees can choose what works best for them: work in one of our offices, be fully remote or the best of both worlds! We believe in a flexible working environment to allow Britelings to perform at their best ensuring a healthy work-life balance. We have recently implemented Britebreak Fridays: all Britelings turn off their computers and take the first Friday of every month off to focus on their wellbeing.
