  • From leading the adoption of tech products and policies to managing complex, corporate partnerships to driving multi-million dollar advertising campaigns to executing high stakes rapid response communications, Jennifer Helm has had a dynamic, challenging and meaningful career at the intersection of tech, media and politics for over 15 years.

    Since 2017, Jen has worked at Meta in Washington, DC. Currently, she is a Policy Manager within the Content Policy Team where she drives global policy education and stakeholder engagement with major advertisers, creators and industry trade associations where she and her team serve as experts on Meta's Community Standards, Advertising, Commerce, Monetization Content Policies and Virtual Reality Conduct Policies.

She helped to launch Facebook's Election Transparency efforts including the Ad Library, Political Advertising Authorization and Disclaimer Tools, and Social Issue, Election, and Political Ad Policies.

     

    While at Meta, she also managed the company's partnership with The Ad Council where she worked on the creation of 15 public service announcements for campaigns such as Love Has No Labels, Seize The Awkward and more. The Love Has No Labels campaign, "Fight The Virus. Fight the Bias" won a 2021 Shorty Award for Best Use of Facebook.

     

    Before joining Meta, Jen worked at digital marketing firm, Bully Pulpit Interactive (BPI), where she led client campaigns and managed the agency's marketing, communications and new business efforts. During her five years there, the agency quadrupled in size, acquired and incubated several companies and expanded from Washington, DC to New York, San Francisco and Chicago.

     

    Prior to BPI, Jen worked in New York where she directed digital communications strategy for TIME, FORTUNE, MONEY, CNNMoney and LIFE. She worked closely with the editorial and business sides of each publication to drive innovation, publicize news and launch online products.
