About the role

The State of New York's Department of Environmental Conservation seeks an Associate Counsel for the Region 4 Schenectady Headquarters to enforce environmental violations and protect natural resources in the nine-county Capital District region. Under the Regional Attorney, this supervisor-level role leads Senior Attorneys and staff, handles significant enforcement matters, and represents the agency in hearings and compliance actions.

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.
