About the Team

Airbnb is hiring an Advocacy Associate to join the well-established Advocacy & Policy Media team within the Public Policy department. The Advocacy team at Airbnb is the rapid response, political activation, and policy advocacy team within Public Policy, dedicated to engaging our host and guest community in the regulatory conversation around short-term rentals. The Advocacy team maintains an integrated approach to organizing, utilizing both digital tactics and proven best practices of low-touch community organizing, to inspire our hosts and guests to take political action.
