• Excellent judgement along with strong investigative planning and prosecution skills;
• Superb analytic, research, writing, editing and verbal presentation skills;

• Prior experience supervising and/or mentoring attorneys and support staff is preferred.

Applicants must reside in (or intend to soon become a resident of) New York State and be admitted to practice law in New York State.

Duties Description The New York State Office of the Attorney General (OAG) is seeking an experienced prosecutor to serve as the Deputy Bureau Chief of the Public Integrity Bureau (PIB). This position is located in New York City.

PIB investigates and seeks to vindicate the public's trust in honest government. When public servants engage in corruption, fraud or illegal behavior in the course of their public duties, the PIB may investigate or take enforcement action to restore the public's interest in honest government and the integrity of government officials at the state and local level. Specifically, PIB handles complex investigations into government contractors, public corruption, fraud and abuse of authority, from the initial allegation through final disposition. The Bureau consists of attorneys, investigators, auditors and analysts. Although PIB is part of the Criminal Division, PIB brings cases pursuant to both civil and criminal authority. The Bureau can also issue reports about its investigations and findings.

The Deputy Bureau Chief’s duties will include but not be limited to the following:
• Assisting the Bureau Chief with the day-to-day management of the Bureau’s operations and caseload;
• Providing detailed oversight of the Bureau’s active investigations;
• Coordinating with the law enforcement agencies across the state on active matters as well as continuing to develop/expand these strategic partnerships;
• Supervising, supporting and coaching PIB attorneys and support staff to enhance their skillsets and overall professional development; and
• Carrying an individual docket of matters, as the Bureau’s workload requires.

Additional Comments Applicants from diverse backgrounds are encouraged to apply. The OAG is an equal opportunity employer.

OAG employees serve more than 19.85 million state residents through a wide variety of occupations. We offer a comprehensive New York State benefits package, including paid leave, health, dental, vision and retirement benefits, and family-friendly policies.
