THE ORGANIZATION

MISSION

As You Sow seeks to promote environmental and social corporate responsibility through shareholder advocacy, coalition building, and innovative legal strategies.

VISION

Our vision is a safe, just, and sustainable world in which protecting the environment and human rights is central to corporate decision-making.

OVERVIEW

As You Sow is a Berkeley-based non-profit 501(c)(3) organization founded in 1992. We work across a range of issue areas including climate and energy; biodiversity; circular economy; environmental health; and social justice.

We believe that a safe, just, and sustainable world for all can be achieved by moving corporations to take responsibility for the impacts of their policies and practices. We achieve this goal through direct engagement with corporate management, formal shareholder resolutions, original research and reports, and innovative legal action, among others. We also work to foster and align investors and investments with a sustainable economy, a healthy environment, and thriving communities.

COMMITMENT TO DEI (Diversity and Inclusion)

As You Sow actively seeks to recruit and retain a diverse staff in all areas of our work. We do not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of age, race, creed, color, national origin, ancestry, marital status, sex, or sexual orientation.

THE POSITION

As You Sow seeks an experienced Senior Staff Attorney to lead in the development of high-profile impaction litigation and legal strategies that advance and defend shareholder rights; challenge state and federal actions intended to prevent investor consideration of environmental, social, and governance risk; and to advance consumer protection, environmental, derivative, and related actions that drive accountability and change.

The Senior Staff Attorney will be responsible for a range of activities that include responding quickly and effectively to emerging legal, legislative, and regulatory challenges; writing amicus briefs for submission in key federal and state cases; drafting regulatory comment letters and petitions; communicating and working productively with a range of colleagues and organizations; advancing and defending regulatory law across the range of issues on which As You Sow works; and participating in the formulation and advancement of organizational strategies, including assisting staff in drafting resolutions and defending company challenges to resolutions filed with the SEC.
