  • Ability to litigate on both policy and technical issues, with emphasis on those involving economic, financial, and accounting issues.
  • Demonstrated ability to learn previously unfamiliar technical concepts and material quickly and successfully preferred.
  • Effective research, writing, editing, and oral communication skills required.
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment.

The successful candidate will be able to demonstrate a connection to the people and communities we serve and an interest in supporting a respectful, diverse, equitable, and inclusive work environment.
