Reporting to the CEO and serving as a member of our leadership team, the Policy Director will supervise Policy team staff members and will leverage a deep understanding of systemic community and economic development challenges affecting Black neighborhoods to drive our piloting and advocacy agendas and approaches. In coalition with relevant stakeholders—including leaders from grassroots, movement, public, academic, and capital sectors—the Policy Director will be responsible for leading ongoing initiatives and exploration of new models for place-based wealth- and power-building that can be scaled for system adoption to prevent displacement and support existing communities to flourish in place.
This is a great opportunity for a community leader who cares deeply about creating a just and thriving St. Louis and building precedence for similar communities around the country. You will have the opportunity to help expand the impact of a well-respected and growing organization; to develop and implement a bold policy strategy for systems change; and to cultivate and grow a team of dedicated professionals.
