3. Deepen relationships with external stakeholders (including governments, regulators, and energy policymakers) and experts to identify opportunities and risks arising from policy and regulatory developments.
4. Facilitate meetings between AWS and key stakeholders, including senior government officials, regulators, industry associations, and alliance partners to promote AWS advocacy positions.
5. Work closely with internal business partners to craft and contribute to policy submissions and engage in consultations with relevant regulators.
6. Contribute to energy policy advocacy efforts within AWS including coordinating and developing public policy collateral such as policy position papers and talking points.
7. Provide expert advice to internal business partners and assist them in developing their respective business strategies.
8. Other duties as assigned.
