Senior Consultant for Individual Giving (3-4-Month Contract)

 

Remote position within the United States, with a preference for candidates based in the NYC area.

 

The migrant rights nonprofit Justice in Motion is seeking an expert in individual giving to provide assistance during a period of intense workload running January - April 2025 on a contract basis.

 

About Justice in Motion

In the face of overwhelming legal and practical barriers, many migrants who have suffered exploitation or abuse at the hands of employers or government officials give up their rights after leaving the United States. Other migrants who flee abuse, violence, and persecution are unable to remain in safety due to lack of evidence to support their claims.

 

These migrants need “portable justice” - the right and ability to access justice across borders. Justice in Motion is dedicated to ensuring portable justice through legal, educational, and policy initiatives in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and Central America. Essential to this transnational model is our Defender Network, a unique partnership of on-the-ground human rights organizations in Mexico and Central America. Justice in Motion makes sure that wherever migrants go, their rights will follow.
