The New York City Conflicts of Interest Board is seeking a Deputy Director of Enforcement. The Board’s Enforcement Unit is responsible for prosecuting violations of the City’s conflicts of interest law, which covers all current and former City public servants. The Deputy Director will work closely with the Director of Enforcement to manage the unit to ensure that reported violations are addressed in a timely, thoughtful, and consistent manner. The Deputy Director will also handle some of the most challenging enforcement cases—involving complicated fact patterns and high-level officials—from start to finish by: evaluating the legal and factual merits through the review of documentary and testimonial evidence gathered by the City’s Department of Investigation; presenting oral and written recommendations for proposed enforcement action to the Board at its monthly meetings; drafting pleadings; negotiating settlements; drafting settlement agreements; and trying cases at the New York City Office of Administrative Trials and Hearings. The Deputy Director must be able to engage in sophisticated and nuanced legal analysis and write in a clear, concise, and comprehensive way. The ideal candidate will demonstrate a knowledge of and interest in the workings of New York City government.
