The Role

You will be a core part of our strategic advisory team, guiding technology companies as they navigate complex and fast-evolving regulatory frontiers - from AI governance to platform regulation to data policy. Whether you're analysing a new regulatory proposal, mapping a fragmented regional landscape, or building relationships with policymakers and the broader ecosystem, your work will directly inform how clients engage and navigate these issues.

​

This is a launchpad for ambitious, analytically rigorous operators ready to deepen and apply their expertise in technology policy, while operating in an integrated public affairs context - connecting regulatory analysis to narrative and stakeholder engagement as a trusted advisor.

​

Key Responsibilities

• Own and deliver discrete client workstreams end-to-end, spanning regulatory research, policy analysis, and intelligence gathering across AI, platforms, data, and other frontier technology sectors

• Monitor and interpret regulatory and legislative developments across key Asia-Pacific markets, distilling implications into clear recommendations for clients

• Lead the development of high-quality outputs including briefing notes, regulatory trackers, stakeholder maps, and policy submissions - aligned to clients' objectives

• Partner with senior team members to shape regulatory strategy and contribute meaningfully to internal and external discussions and presentations

• Collaborate across policy, narrative, and creative teams to produce integrated, coherent deliverables

• Support the development of junior team members through guidance, feedback, and quality control on outputs

​

What We're Looking For

• Demonstrated ability to drive workstreams effectively towards strong outcomes

• Developing expertise in tech policy domains (AI, data, platforms, emerging tech), with the ability to think and operate in an integrated public affairs context

• Sound judgement, professionalism, and intellectual rigour

• Comfortable operating in fast-paced, ambiguous environments with evolving priorities

​

Experience & skills

You should have:

• 4-6 years of experience in tech policy, government relations, regulatory affairs, consulting, or a related field

• Strong research, analytical writing, and critical thinking skills, with comfort interpreting regulatory and legislative texts

• Sound understanding of political, economic, or regulatory developments across Asia-Pacific

​

Bonus points

You’ll stand out if you:

• Have experience in technology, AI, or emerging technology policy specifically

• Have worked in government, regulatory bodies, industry associations, consultancies, or tech companies' policy teams

• Enjoy translating complex regulatory developments into clear, actionable strategy
