The Humane League (THL) is a global nonprofit ending the abuse of animals raised for food. THL fosters a high-energy culture of teamwork and mission-driven problem solving, and we have earned recognition as Top Charity from Animal Charity Evaluators for all of their rating periods. Over the past few years, we’ve grown to a staff of 100+ talented individuals dispersed across the country and around the world. At THL, how animals are treated in the food system is at the forefront of our everyday work.

As Associate Counsel, you will play an integral role in identifying and mitigating risks to the organization to ensure its continued operation as an effective advocate for animals raised for food around the world.

You are ideal for this position because you have strong experience providing counsel on employment law matters and are excited for the opportunity to use that expertise while expanding your practice into other areas of the law as needed. You are personable and intellectually curious, possess exceptional analytical, organizational, and communication skills, exhibit careful attention to detail, and can deftly manage multiple priorities with contending deadlines.

This is a full-time, remote position, involving occasional domestic travel (equivalent to approximately 1-2 week-long trips per year). 

We are only able to consider applicants who reside in the United States and possess United States work authorization.

We will be recording a webinar hosted by Ann Porter, General Counsel, and Emily Hoffman, Staff Attorney. You can submit any questions you would like answered regarding the role and The Humane League via this form. Please submit any questions by Thursday, February 22nd, and the webinar will be available to watch here after Tuesday, February 27th.
