About the role

Human Rights Campaign, Inc. seeks a Director of Legal Policy (Senior Director level possible) to lead the legal policy program and develop advocacy strategies. You will supervise the Legal Policy team, craft legislative and regulatory input, and coordinate with campaigns, communications, and equality programs. Ideal candidates are JD-licensed with 8+ years in legal policy, strong coalition experience, and a proven leadership record.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
