About the job
The Knowledge and Information (K&I) Government Affairs and Public Policy (GAPP) team is at the center of the high-stakes conversations shaping the future of technology today, engaging with policymakers to serve as a catalyst for responsible innovation.
The Search Government Affairs pod acts as the vital policy bridge for core Search products. We coordinate strategically between external policy discussions and internal teams, working shoulder-to-shoulder with Product, Engineering, Legal, and Trust and Safety to translate fast-moving global political developments into actionable product guidance.
As a Public Policy Manager for Search, you will address the most complex issues facing the technology industry. The GAPP team manages the company's political and policy strategy, driving external engagement with policymakers, regulators, and civil society. In this role, you will focus specifically on the intersection of Search technologies and highly sensitive areas, including personalization, health, and finance.
You will ensure that Search products are built responsibly and reflect a sophisticated understanding of the global regulatory landscape. You will help navigate evolving user expectations and dialogue with policy experts regarding the impact of generative AI-powered features and age-appropriate access to information.
This role requires an individual who thrives in emerging policy discussions about technology and global regulations. Success requires not just political acumen, but the determination and communication skills necessary to navigate deeply matrixed internal stakeholders and align engaging priorities.
Google takes its responsibilities seriously, including engaging with government and other stakeholders on important public policy challenges. The Government Affairs and Public Policy (GAPP) team leads the company's engagement with executive branch officials, legislators, regulators and third-parties in the formation of public policy. Working closely with Google leaders, GAPP seeks to identify key policy issues, listen carefully to others' views and opinions, and distill and share the company's perspective on those issues with external stakeholders. While we focus on challenges affecting the internet, our issue areas are increasingly broad and encompass many areas where public policy, business, and technology intersect.Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
US: $141000 - $205000 (USD) + 15% bonus target + equity + benefits
