About this team and role:
Mozilla’s mission is to champion the internet as a global public resource, measured through a double bottom line: advancing that mission while succeeding in the market. The global public policy team enables this by shaping laws and regulatory frameworks that support our open source technologies, strengthen user choice and privacy, and ensure fair competition to create the conditions for responsible innovation and long-term growth.
In this role, you will engage with government stakeholders, industry partners, and civil society, advocating for public policy positions that align with our mission and support responsible innovation in technology. You will be responsible for raising the profile of Mozilla and Firefox in the UK, ensuring consistent engagement with our stakeholders, and coordinating input from subject matter experts on the global policy team. As such, you will lead end-to-end policy campaign development and execution across key issues such as privacy, competition, and AI in the UK, while contributing to and supporting related efforts at EU level.
What you'll do:
- Engage with UK policymakers, regulators, and other stakeholders to advocate for policy frameworks that support the open web and Mozilla’s product initiatives.
- Build public policy campaigns from the ground up and drive their execution to raise Mozilla’s profile in the UK and shape ongoing policy discussions.
- Represent Mozilla in external forums, industry groups, and other public venues on policy issues.
- Monitor, analyze, and communicate internally about emerging policy issues, regulatory developments, and global trends affecting Mozilla's products across the UK and the EU.
- Translate complex technical concepts into clear, concise, and actionable policy insights and recommendations.
- Lead and manage policy-related projects end-to-end, including coordination of timelines, stakeholders, deliverables, and external partners.
What you'll bring:
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience with at least 5 years of experience working on technology policy.
- Demonstrated experience working in the UK policy environment (e.g. UK Government, Westminster, CMA, ICO), with familiarity and exposure to EU policy processes and stakeholders.
- Ability to manage multiple priorities, external policy agencies, and drive projects to successful completion.
- Excellent cross-functional skills with experience working with international teams and a variety of collaborators.
- Strong policy writing, research, and analysis skills attuned to communicating key information to decision makers.
- Experience in competition and privacy policy, and/or exposure to civil society, or non-profit technology environments is strongly preferred.
