About the role

The Office of the General Counsel at the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission provides legal services to ensure that agency actions comply with the Commodity Exchange Act and related regulations. It represents the Commission in federal courts and before administrative bodies in enforcement appeals, challenges to actions, bankruptcies, employment matters, and other proceedings. Applicants must hold a J.D. and be actively admitted to the bar in good standing in any U.S.

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.
