CONFLICTS ANALYST / CONFLICTS SUPERVISOR
New York, NY | Full-time | Hybrid
\-------------------------------------------------------------
COMPENSATION
Base: $100,000--$130,000
Note: Flexibility above this range for exceptional candidates holding a JD or LL.M.
\-------------------------------------------------------------
WHY THIS ROLE
This is a hands-on leadership role at a highly regarded New York boutique consistently recognized for market excellence and workplace quality — including multi-year Chambers USA rankings, placement on the National Law Journal's "Midsize Hot List," and recognition on Crain's New York's Best Places to Work list. Unlike large-firm conflicts roles where analysts are one of many in a compliance hierarchy, this position carries genuine autonomy: you'll own complex ethical conflict analyses end-to-end and help modernize the conflicts function rather than just maintain it. The hybrid schedule is structured and consistent — three set days in office, two remote — not subject to partner discretion.
\-------------------------------------------------------------
ABOUT THE ROLE
You'll run the firm's conflicts process from intake through resolution, handling complex ethical conflict analyses independently and partnering with the General Counsel's office on the most novel matters. This is a high-autonomy role on a lean team, with a clear expectation that you'll bring leadership and process improvements, not just execution.
