• Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with Product, Legal, and Engineering teams to align policy objectives with technical business goals.

• Proven experience in public policy, government affairs, or a highly regulated industry (e.g., tech, transport, or logistics).


• Subject Matter Expertise: Proven understanding of the regulatory environment surrounding transport, digital platform regulation, or the delivery sector.


• Funding Literacy: Experience identifying and navigating public funding landscapes or government procurement processes.


• Strategic Communication: Excellent written and verbal skills, with the ability to translate complex regulations into actionable business insights and advocate effectively to senior policymakers.


• Project Management: Strong ability to coordinate cross-functional teams and manage multiple high-stakes policy files simultaneously.

Experience is great, but what we really look for is drive, intelligence, and integrity. So even if you don’t tick every box, please consider applying!

• Accelerate your professional growth with unique career opportunities.


• Enjoy a rewarding salary and stock options, knowing that as Bolt succeeds, so do you.


• Take care of your physical and mental health with our wellness perks.


• Celebrate 5 years at Bolt with a 1-month paid sabbatical to recharge.
