What are the responsibilities and job description for the State Government Affairs Director (Southeast Region) position at Foundation for Government Accountability?
You've watched it happen before: a good bill, a sponsor ready to carry it, momentum building, and then it stalls, because nobody got to the right people in time. The 2027 legislative sessions in Alabama, Arkansas, North Carolina, and South Carolina are going to be full of moments exactly like that. FGA needs someone who won't let them stall.
That's the job.
FGA is hiring a State Government Affairs Director for the Southeast to build the strategy, cultivate the relationships, and run the war room when a legislative fight heats up across four states. You'll become the person governors' offices, legislators, and agency leaders call first — the strategist who doesn't stop until the reform is signed into law.
This isn't a job you clock in and out of. It's relationship-first, boots-on-the-ground work, with real stakes: the 2027 legislative sessions, and the families whose lives change when commonsense reform wins.
If you've spent five-plus years fighting these battles — state capitols, campaigns, policy advocacy — and you're ready to own an entire region's strategy, we want to talk to you.
Apply now. The Southeast needs a strategist who's bought in to win.
