Conservation Law Foundation (CLF) is seeking an Associate VP of Strategic Litigation to join our team working for a healthy and thriving New England for all. CLF's Strategic Litigation team works on groundbreaking environmental law cases, currently including climate-change liability claims against the world's largest oil and gas producers and cases that will reduce nutrient pollution that fuels toxic algae outbreaks. Other cases may address the negative consequences of plastics in the environment, climate change related greenwashing claims, or hold parties responsible for release of emerging contaminants into the environment.
This is an exciting opportunity to work alongside and support the Vice President (VP) of Strategic Litigation to set and implement programmatic and legal direction and priorities consistent with the organization's strategic plan. Through excellent supervisory, delegation, and organizational skills as well as keen knowledge of litigation, you will support the Vice President in guiding the team.
The position is strongly preferred to be based in Boston, MA but being based in CLF's Providence, RI or New Haven, CT offices will be considered. There is also some opportunity for remote and flexible work within New England.

About CLF
Conservation Law Foundation (CLF) protects New England's environment for the benefit of all people. A non-profit, member-supported organization, CLF uses the law, science, and the market to solve the region's most challenging environmental problems, from climate change to ocean conservation to transportation. Every day, CLF advocates stand up for New Englanders-in statehouses, courthouses, boardrooms, regulatory hearings, and community gatherings-to forge innovative paths to environmental progress and economic prosperity for all in our region. To that end, CLF frequently works with communities of color, and those that are economically or otherwise disadvantaged, which often suffer disproportionately from the impacts of environmental degradation.
CLF is committed to diversity among our staff, volunteers, boards, and membership and creating a positive, inclusive workplace culture where all can thrive.
Compensation & Benefits
CLF offers a competitive salary, an extensive benefits plan, and an open, inclusive, and accepting work environment where differences are highly respected. The starting salary range for the position is $110,000 - $132,000 if based in Boston and $99,000-$119,000 if based in a CLF office outside of MA; actual salary will reflect experience, qualification, and where the selected candidate is based.
We recognize the value of work-life balance and also strive to create opportunities for growth for all employees through professional development.
CLF considers the health and safety of its staff members and their families, our guests, our visitors, and the community at large to be a top priority. All offers to work, intern, or volunteer with CLF are conditioned on the candidate complying with CLF's mandatory COVID-19 vaccination policy.
