Public Policy Manager, Strategy and Regulations, AMET (STE Contract - 12 months)

Meta is seeking a Policy Manager, Strategy & Regulations to join the Africa, Middle East and Turkey (AMET) Public Policy team. In this role you will be the first line of response for regulatory consultations across the region, rapidly assessing new and proposed regulation, identifying impact on Meta's products, services and business, and mobilising the right cross-functional teams.

The ideal candidate has a deep understanding of the intersection between regulation and technology, experience producing written policy analysis and drafting regulatory submissions, and the ability to coordinate consensus positions across a complex matrix organisation under tight deadlines. Familiarity with the AMET regulatory landscape is strongly preferred.

Responsibilities

• Rapid analysis and triaging: Act as the first line of response for AMET Public Policy regulatory consultations — conducting rapid reviews to identify key provisions and potential impact on Meta products, services and business; recommending the relevant cross-functional teams for involvement; and triaging submissions into the internal regulatory tracking system and related regulatory preparedness workflows
• Submission drafting: Work closely with subject-matter-expert central policy teams and the regional product policy stakeholders to gather inputs for regulatory consultations, hold the pen on draft regulatory consultation submissions in the region, and support regional Public Policy in finalising consultation responses by facilitating the approval process

• Regulatory mapping and trends: Lead collaboration with AMET regulatory cross-functional teams to map regulatory pressures, analyse trends, surface relevant policy positions, and compile policy positions and playbooks for AMET — supporting efforts to keep internal policy and regulatory tracking resources up to date for assigned domain areas
• Internal coordination: Coordinate internal support for regulatory processes, including collaboration with relevant subject matter experts in Central Policy, Regulatory Readiness and Legal
• Advocacy enablement: Support regional Public Policy with regulatory engagements across assigned domain areas by ensuring colleagues have what is needed to advocate Meta's position (talking points, briefs, toolkits)
