Original job description

SUMMARY:

Northwest Immigrant Rights Project (NWIRP) seeks an experienced, bilingual Policy Director.

The Policy Director, in collaboration with the Executive Director and Deputy Directors, will develop and advance the organization’s public policy strategy. This full-time role will be based out of NWIRP’s Seattle office. Applicants must be practicing attorneys and fluent in English and at least one other language, and additional languages are encouraged.

The Policy Director will be part of NWIRP’s management team and will contribute to supporting NWIRP’s mission, vision and values and strategic planning across the organization. The policy director will report to the executive director and work closely with the deputy, legal, and communications directors, and other members of NWIRP’s management team and staff, as the primary bridge between internal goals and external partners.

The Policy Director is expected to travel across Washington State for legislative and executive advocacy, community outreach, and partnership events, with occasional out-of-state travel. This director is also expected to maintain a limited caseload and travel to Immigration Courts in Seattle and Tacoma and USCIS offices in Yakima, Spokane, and Seattle. A valid driver’s license will be required to meet these expectations. The position may involve some evening and weekend work hours.

This position is expected to begin as soon as possible but no later than the end of 2026.

Founded in 1984, Northwest Immigrant Rights Project (NWIRP) is a nationally-recognized legal services organization on the front lines of defending and advancing the rights of immigrants. With over 200 employees, NWIRP provides direct legal representation and assistance in immigration matters to thousands of people with low incomes who come from over 145 countries and speak over 80 different languages.

NWIRP challenges unjust policies through high-impact lawsuits and advocates for laws and policies that respect the rights of immigrants. NWIRP is also a trusted provider of immigration-related community education for immigrant communities and social service providers.
