Job Description
Job DescriptionSalary: $55,000-$60,000Who We Are
NDIA, comprised of its Affiliates, Chapters, Divisions, and more than 1,700 corporate and 65,000 individual members, is a nonpartisan educational association that has been designated by the IRS as a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization—not a lobbying firm—and was founded to educate its constituencies on all aspects of national security. For more than 100 years, NDIA has provided a platform through which leaders in government, industry, and academia can collaborate and provide solutions to advance the national security and defense needs of the nation.
NDIA works to strengthen government-industry partnerships through dialogue, education, and interaction with all three branches of government. Through the Strategy & Policy Team, NDIA educates its members on legislative and regulatory activity important to the defense industrial base. NDIA also actively participates in several industry working groups and coalitions to coordinate the defense and government contracting communities' positions on important issues.
Position Summary
Reporting to the Senior Director of Strategy & Policy, the Strategy & Policy Associate supports priority legislative and regulatory policy activities, internal cross-functional strategic initiatives, and external engagements with industry and government through research insights, quality written products, and stakeholder coordination. This includes supporting the Strategy & Policy Team on various aspects of defense industrial base strategic and policy priorities, coordinating with NDIA member Divisions, Chapters, and policy working groups, preparing and disseminating initial drafts of documents, preparing readouts and briefs for NDIA leadership, and supporting both virtual and in-person NDIA events. This position routinely engages at the highest levels of industry, the U.S. government, and outside stakeholders and provides an opportunity to work with an experienced and dedicated team to strengthen public and private partnerships in support of national security.
