Many Associates have gone on to other positions within Earthjustice and with other public interest organizations.</p><p>
This is a hybrid position based in our New York City office and requires regular in-person attendance.</p><p><b>

Strong work ethic and initiative, and sound yet creative judgment.</li><li>
Strong desire to fight for the right of all to a healthy environment.</li><li>
Ability to work constructively and in a highly professional manner in a diverse, dynamic, and hard-working team-oriented atmosphere.</li><li>
Commitment to public interest work and a passion for the role of Earthjustice and its mission, including a desire to fight for the right of all to a healthy environment.</li><li>
Emotional intelligence and sensitivity to the needs and concerns of individuals associated with diverse cultures, backgrounds and orientations.</li><li>
Ability and willingness to travel as needed for case work, court appearances, and presentations.</li></ul><p>
We offer a mission- and employee-focused work environment and a competitive compensation package, including excellent benefits. Earthjustice is an equal opportunity employer and highly values diversity.
