**Who We Are**

Hunting is an ancient tradition passed down from the earliest times of man to the present day. Hunters participate directly in the natural world and care enough to make sure that it continues in all of its awesome beauty and diversity.

Safari Club International is a U.S.based organization of more than 50,000 hunters and nearly 200 chapters worldwide, dedicated to protecting the right to hunt and to promote wildlife conservation. Between SCI and its sister organization, the SCI Foundation, we have put more than $70 Million on the ground for conservation since 2000. In the U.S. and abroad, hunters are part of a system that keeps the rivers, forests and fields intact and maintains the wildlife.

**Summary**

Serves as a key lobbyist for Safari Club International (SCI) and represents the priorities of SCI before the European Parliament, the European Commission, and the governments of European member and non-member states. The Liaison reports directly to the Executive Vice President of International Government & Public Affairs and collaborates with advocacy staff, European Committee and Government Affairs Committee, volunteers on legislative activities and priorities related to SCI and its members. Responsibilities also include advancement of SCI’s relationships with external stakeholders (both governmental and non-governmental) that influence public policy, provide counsel about possible courses of action, and identify key external engagement opportunities on policy. Provide direction and perspective for SCI’s political programs (communications and grassroots) and collaborate with other SCI departments in furtherance of SCI’s mission to be first for hunters. The liaison will be required to register as a lobbyist.

All applicants should demonstrate an understanding of, and commitment to, hunting as an essential part of biologically sound and ethically responsible international wildlife management.

**Responsibilities**
- Work to advance SCI’s policy agenda through extensive contact with the European Parliament, European Commission, member state governments and non-member state governments.
