Job Description
About Project Expedite Justice Project Expedite Justice (PEJ), founded in 2016, is a United States-based NGO with a 501(c)(3) charitable organization designation. PEJ's mission is to use all available legal options to seek justice for individuals inadequately protected under the law, who cannot access legal resources, and who are exploited by governments, corporations, or others. PEJ applies a novel, victim-centered approach to addressing mass atrocities. PEJ's 3-step model includes training, mentoring, and providing independent legal consulting. We partner with and train local lawyers and investigators to collect, analyze, and preserve evidence in accordance with international legal standards. Without evidence, there can be no accountability. We further build local capabilities and advance the justice process through case-specific mentoring and strategic guidance to local legal practitioners and investigators. Finally, we partner with local NGOs, pro bono law firms, and legal clinics to represent victims of international crimes and serious human rights abuses in court or alternative judicial mechanisms. PEJ has projects in several countries. Our inclusive team includes people working remotely from Africa, Asia, Europe, South America, and the US. We are deeply committed to increasing opportunities for lawyers and other human rights defenders from the global majority or the Global South to participate in international rule-of-law-based nonprofit work. People from countries in the global majority are encouraged to apply for this role. The Opportunity: Executive Coordinator PEJ is seeking a proactive, highly capable Executive Officer/Coordinator to provide high-level support to the Executive Director. This role will go beyond clerical support and include coordination of substantive tasks, communications, and project support, working closely with senior leadership and program teams. </
