The money management giant is looking for a new Washington, DC-based head of US government affairs and public policy as well as a new head of state government affairs, wrote John Kelly, BlackRock's global head of corporate affairs, in a previously unreported company memo last week. The overhaul, which includes reshuffling positions and a renamed government affairs and public policy group, reflects the tremendous pressure BlackRock is under in the public eye. Reshaping the key policy groupA string of roles in the public policy group are changing to meet this new reality. The firm's public policy group has about 40 people, some 25 of whom are on Cound's team focused on international policy. Novick launched the firm's public policy efforts in 2009.

At least nine people have left or are transitioning out of BlackRock's communications group. The corporate communications team has some 90 employees globally, up from 48 in 2019, a BlackRock spokesperson said. "We're fortunate the BlackRock communications team includes some of the most talented professionals in the industry and that we have continued to attract top talent as the team has grown in recent years," Badenhausen said in a statement to Insider. Jonathan Posen, a veteran speechwriter who worked as former Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner's chief writer on the financial crisis and other economic matters, joined BlackRock's communications group in 2013. The criticism reached new heights in 2022 as Republican state officials coordinated attacks on Fink and BlackRock and some pulled their investments.
