Meta is seeking a Policy Planning Manager to support central operations and special projects for the policy organization. In this role, you'll be a member of the Policy Planning team, a globally focused central team that supports Policy through strategic planning, coordination, and operational excellence. You will serve as the operational backbone of the team — managing logistics and coordination for major executive engagements and events, running day-to-day program operations, and ensuring that the team's workstreams move forward on time and at a high standard. You will work closely with Policy Planning leadership to support a growing portfolio of policy programs and cross-functional initiatives. Additionally, you will champion AI adoption across the policy org, helping teams integrate AI-native workflows into their operations. The candidate will manage executive-level deliverables across planning, coordination, and content development. They can manage complex workback plans independently, taking ambiguous inputs and distilling them into clear, concise briefing materials for board-level and C-suite audiences. They bring intellectual curiosity about AI and technology, with the ability to drive tool adoption and workflow transformation to increase the team's efficiency and impact. They will demonstrate independent judgment, cross-functional influence, and the ability to drive projects forward independently, proactively identifying risks and escalating decisions as needed.
