What You'll Need
- Experience: Ideally 7 + years of experience in Government, Parliament, public affairs or consultancy. We are open to candidates from other areas that have a deep understanding of politics and policy issues and/or experience navigating complex topics who may be looking for a career change.
- A self starter: All of us at Uber seek to work with people who enjoy solving problems and building things from the bottom up. Projects can change fast and you need to be highly adaptable, as well as calm under pressure.
- An exceptional advocate: We're looking for people who can distill complex ideas into simple, clear points. You'll need to write well and be comfortable speaking to a range of senior stakeholders - about our products, people and the ways we're working to improve life for customers, earners, partners and cities.
- An expert negotiator: An ideal candidate will know how to navigate complex partnerships in both the private and public sector spheres, creating outcomes that are respectful of everyone's needs
- A positive teammate: Success at Uber depends on your capacity to coordinate with different teams (internally and externally) around shared goals. It's why we're seeking well-organized people that enjoy working with others to get stuff done - and who can deal with the ambiguity that sometimes comes from working cross-functionally.
We welcome people from all backgrounds who seek the opportunity to help build a future where everyone and everything can move independently. If you have the curiosity, passion, and collaborative spirit, work with us, and let's move the world forward, together.
