About the Role

The Company is seeking a Managing Director to establish and oversee its Criminal Conflict Offices and support effective, client-centered criminal defense representation. The role supervises office leaders and senior trial counsel, sets clear expectations for performance and case management, and promotes collaboration among attorneys, investigators, and social services advocates. Responsibilities include addressing operational and systemic issues, monitoring caseloads and case-related data, supporting hiring and staff development, and ensuring culturally competent representation. The Managing Director also coordinates with legal and operational teams, responds to conflicts and ethics concerns, maintains relationships with local legal stakeholders, and contributes to policy, strategic planning, and budget development. Candidates must demonstrate a commitment to representing people with limited financial means, have at least eight years of criminal defense experience—including significant trial, appellate, or equivalent experience—and at least four years of management experience. Applicants must be eligible to practice law in Massachusetts and committed to serving a culturally diverse, low-income population. Strong organizational and communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple projects are required. The role also requires reliable transportation for work-related travel and dependable internet access for remote work.
