About the Role

~3 min read

Betr is looking for a driven, entrepreneurial Head of Government Affairs to shape and execute our public policy strategy. Our business spans fantasy sports, social sportsbook and casino, skill games, prediction markets, and digital rips. We need someone who can stay ahead of developments across these categories, protect our existing products, and help create opportunities for growth.

Reporting to the General Counsel and working closely with executive leadership, you will turn political intelligence into clear recommendations and action. You will set priorities, build relationships, manage outside lobbyists, and recommend where we invest our advocacy resources. This is a hands-on role for someone eager to take ownership, move quickly, and deliver results with limited oversight.

Location: Strong preference for candidates based in Miami, Florida, or willing to relocate. Exceptional candidates elsewhere in the United States may be considered. Regular domestic travel is required for government meetings, legislative sessions, conferences, and other engagements.

Own our policy strategy. Develop and execute a coordinated state and federal government affairs strategy across our product categories.

Stay ahead of developments. Track legislation, rulemaking, enforcement trends, and political shifts affecting our products. Maintain an actionable view of priority jurisdictions, key decision-makers, deadlines, and next steps.

Build relationships and represent Betr. Develop credible relationships with legislators, governors’ offices, attorneys general and their staff, regulators, and other policymakers. Represent Betr at meetings, hearings, conferences, and industry events.

Manage lobbyists and the advocacy budget. Select, direct, and hold outside lobbyists and consultants accountable. Set objectives, evaluate performance, coordinate messaging, and recommend how to allocate spending across jurisdictions and initiatives.

Build coalitions and make our case. Work with trade associations, peers, and other stakeholders to advance shared priorities. Develop policy briefs, talking points, testimony, and proposed legislative language with internal teams and outside advisers.

Keep leadership informed and drive execution. Provide concise updates on material developments, recommended actions, and progress. Partner with internal teams to align advocacy with business goals and carry initiatives through to completion.

7+ years of relevant experience in government affairs, public policy, lobbying, legislative or executive branch roles, or political campaigns, with demonstrated responsibility for strategy and execution.

Strong understanding of state legislative and regulatory processes, sound political judgment, and a track record of building relationships across party lines.

Experience managing outside lobbyists or consultants, prioritizing across jurisdictions, and making effective use of a government affairs budget.

A self-starter with urgency, initiative, and persistence. You spot issues, propose a plan, and follow through without waiting for detailed direction.

Excellent writing and communication skills, including the ability to translate complex policy issues into clear business implications and practical recommendations.

Strong organization, discretion, and judgment, with the ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-moving business.

Law degrees and legal experience are welcome but not required. We value substantive expertise, political instincts, and demonstrated results.
