Capitol Hill, CPG Industry Vet to Lead Consumer Brands Association Advocacy Efforts

The Consumer Brands Association announces that Jen Daulby is joining the organization’s senior leadership team as senior vice president, government affairs. Daulby most recently served as the minority staff director for the Committee on House Administration and previously held multiple 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.”

A skilled government affairs and communications strategist, Daulby has extensive legal and policy experience and has provided analysis of complex federal issues for committees and members of Congress. In her role as minority staff director for the Committee on House Administration, she drove a proactive minority party agenda and coordinated high-profile operations with a commitment to bipartisan outreach. She also served as chief of staff to Rep. Rodney Davis (R-IL-13), counsel for Congressman Steve Chabot (R-OH-01) and counsel for the Committee on Agriculture. 

Daulby also brings to this role an understanding of consumer-facing industries, having served as a director of government affairs for both Monsanto and Land O’Lakes. 

“The Consumer Brands Association is at the forefront of some of the most significant policy matters facing leaders today, and I am excited to be joining this innovative team,” said Daulby. “There is a tremendous opportunity to strengthen the voice of Consumer Brands and tell the stories of its members here in Washington and beyond, and I look forward to advocating for solutions that unite the entirety of CPG.”

In addition to leading the organization’s integrated approach to advocacy, Daulby will oversee federal government affairs and state government affairs. Her first day at Consumer Brands is April 26, 2021.
