Employment Special Counsel - EEOC
EEOC Special Counsel - Fully Remote | Reduced 1,500 Billable Hours
My client, a globally recognized leader in labor & employment law representing management exclusively, is seeking an experienced EEOC Special Counsel to join their innovative, technology-driven charges practice. This is a unique opportunity to do sophisticated, high-impact employment work - without the demands of a traditional shareholder-track role.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Fully remote - based anywhere in the United States, as long as you reside in the state where you are barred (California-based candidates strongly preferred)
- Reduced billable requirement of just 1,500 hours - real flexibility, real balance
- No required business travel and no business development obligations
- Access to cutting-edge AI-driven tools and proprietary technology that streamline workflow and elevate client service
- Backed by the resources of a global platform with 1,900+ attorneys across 100+ offices worldwide
- Sophisticated, substantive work defending administrative agency charges from investigation through resolution
- Salary range: $140,000 - $165,000, plus performance-based bonuses and a top-tier benefits package
What You'll Do
As EEOC Special Counsel, you'll manage the full lifecycle of administrative agency charges and attorney demand letters on behalf of leading employers nationwide, including:
- Drafting persuasive position statements
- Responding to agency requests for information
- Representing clients in settlement negotiations and remote mediations
- Communicating directly and frequently with sophisticated clients and administrative agencies
This is challenging, intellectually engaging work - designed for attorneys who want to focus on practicing law, not chasing origination credits.
What You Bring
- Minimum 6 years of employment defense law experience on the management side
- Demonstrated experience with administrative agency charges at the federal and state levels (EEOC and state agency exposure strongly preferred)
- Proven ability to draft persuasive position statements and represent clients at hearings and/or mediations
- Strong time management skills and the ability to juggle multiple deadlines with precision
- An active bar license in your state of residence
- Comfort with - and curiosity about - AI and emerging legal technologies, with the aptitude to leverage them to enhance efficiency and client outcomes
The Benefits
A generous package including comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage; a superior 401(k) plan; ample PTO; mental health and wellness programs; family-building and caregiving support; generous paid parental leave; life and disability insurance; flexible spending accounts; and an employee referral bonus program.
