Consumer Brands Association Hires SVP, Gov’t Affairs
The Consumer Brands Association has hired Jen Daulby, who will join the organization’s senior leadership team as SVP, government affairs on April 26. Daulby’s most recent position was minority staff director for the Committee on House Administration and previously held various roles on Capitol Hill and with two consumer-facing Fortune 500 companies.
“Jen is a smart, pragmatic and results-oriented professional with profound experience navigating the most complex regulatory, legal and political issues,” said Consumer Brands President and CEO Geoff Freeman. “As we unite the CPG industry around our focused advocacy agenda, Jen brings leadership, expertise and a deep knowledge about the intersection of business and government I know will benefit Consumer Brands and our members.”
Daulby brings extensive legal and policy experience to her latest role, having provided analysis of complex federal issues for committees and members of Congress. As minority staff director for the Committee on House Administration, she led a proactive minority party agenda and coordinated high-profile operations with a commitment to bipartisan outreach. She was also chief of staff to Rep. Rodney Davis, R-Illinois, counsel for Rep. Steve Chabot, R-Ohio, and counsel for the Committee on Agriculture.
Daulby also has an understanding of consumer-facing industries, gained during her stints as director of government affairs at Monsanto and Land O’Lakes.
