Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
The Senior Corporate Policy Manager establishes and cultivates relationships with major food companies to promote animal welfare and environmental sustainability. They advise partners on best practices, manage account records, and contribute to the team's strategic planning and project execution.
Candidates must have a bachelor's degree or equivalent experience and at least 3-5 years of work experience in a related field. Strong relationship management, communication skills, and a commitment to the organization's mission are required.
As Senior Corporate Policy Manager, you serve a critical role in Compassion's central objective to improve animal welfare and environmental sustainability in our food system: your core responsibility is to establish and cultivate strong relationships with major food companies. Leveraging internal expertise and resources and drawing upon your own professional experience and knowledge of the food industry, you advise CIWF’s food company partners on animal welfare best practices for their supply chains and guide them through implementation.
Above all else, you’re a people person. You enjoy meeting new people and find it easy to connect in conversation. You’re ready to travel frequently for in-person meetings and to attend conferences to learn about industry and meet new corporate leaders and potential food industry partners. Whether or not you have a formal sales background, you are adept at providing helpful, compelling information to guide others to make business decisions and changes to fulfill their goals.
When you’re not traveling, meeting virtually with food companies, or maintaining relationships via email, you serve as a collaborative member of the Corporate Policy team, helping build strategies and leading or contributing to projects and resources to assist partner companies. Besides excellent verbal and written communication skills, you have a sharp eye for accuracy and keeping detailed company records updated in real time.
While collaboration is key to this role, it also requires a high level of self-motivation and independence. You have the experience and drive to set and follow through on your relationship-building strategy with minimal guidance. You’re also a quick learner when it comes to both the details of animal welfare issues and the broader industry landscape, staying up to date on industry news and taking the initiative to deepen your understanding of the nuances of farm animal welfare.

Ending factory farming. Ending animal cruelty. 🐖🐄🐑🐓🐟
Compassion in World Farming was founded in 1967 in England by a British farmer who became horrified by the development of intensive factory farming. Over 50 years ago he decided to make a difference and take a stand against this farming system. In his lifetime, Peter Roberts saw the demise of veal crates and gestation crates in the UK, and in Europe achieved recognition that animals are sentient beings and secured a ban on the barren battery cage and gestation crates for sows (except for the period up to four weeks into pregnancy). Compassion in World Farming is dedicated to reforming a broken food and farming system and introducing a more humane, fair, and sustainable one. Our US office is based in New York City and is headed up by our US Executive Director, Ben Williamson.
