Attorney
Washington, DC 20530
United States
About the Office:
The Tax Division is hiring criminal trial lawyers who have a passion for litigation, a deep
interest in public service, the ability to work both collaboratively and independently, and a
willingness to travel. Any attorney who enjoys the challenges of criminal litigation and complex,
financial-related trial work and wishes to litigate cases in federal court on behalf of the United
States should consider applying for a trial attorney position with the Criminal Enforcement
Sections of the Tax Division. Trial attorneys investigate and litigate federal litigation cases by
working with the United States Attorney's offices, IRS, FBI and other federal, state, and local
law enforcement agencies.
The mission of the Tax Division is to enforce the nation's tax laws fully, fairly, and consistently,
through both criminal and civil litigation, in order to promote voluntary compliance with the tax
laws, maintain public confidence in the integrity of the tax system, and promote the sound
development of the law. The attorneys in the Criminal Trial Sections represent the United States
in litigation in federal courts across the country.
The Tax Division is ranked as “one of the best places to work” in government by the Partnership
for Public Service. We seek to create a work environment and organizational culture that reflect
the diversity of American society, and that foster the success of every employee by appreciating
and building upon the skills, experiences, and uniqueness that each employee brings to the
workplace.
We place a high value on diversity of experience and cultural perspective and encourage
applications from all interested eligible candidates, including attorneys of all ages from all ethnic

http://www.justice.gov/tax/DiverseCommittee/Tax_Brochure_SM.pdf.
More information about the Criminal Trial Sections is available at: http://www.usdoj.gov/tax/.
Job Description:
Trial attorneys in the Criminal Enforcement Sections have a significant amount of responsibility
and work in a collegial environment with experienced litigators. Our attorneys work with federal
agents to investigate and prosecute offenses arising under the internal revenue laws and related
federal statutes. Our attorneys' responsibilities encompass the investigative use of the grand jury
and other investigative techniques, such as search warrants. Attorneys also engage in all facets of
criminal litigation, including indictment, motions practice, trial, and sentencing. Persuasive legal
writing, oral advocacy, and ability to analyze and organize significant documentary evidence are
critical components of the position. Besides working with federal agents, a trial attorney usually
works with another Criminal Tax Division Trial Attorney or an Assistant United States Attorney
(AUSA) in the jurisdiction's U.S. Attorney's Office on litigated matters as the lead attorney,
second chair, or consulting attorney. Our cases involve traditional violations of criminal tax laws
by taxpayers having legal sources of income, which includes, for example, tax evasion and the
filing of false tax returns, as well as cases involving tax defiers, identity theft, financial
institution fraud, securities fraud, health care fraud, public corruption, organized crime activities,
and narcotics trafficking.
Our jurisdiction is the United States - accordingly, travel to multiple jurisdictions is an essential
component of the job. Travel frequency and location varies and is based on the attorney's
litigation schedule
Qualifications:
Applicants should have a strong interest in federal litigation and trial work; strong writing, oral-
advocacy, and research skills; and an exceptional academic background. The work of the
Criminal Enforcement Trial Sections requires the application of analytical, research, and writing
skills to complex and significant issues involving all aspects of criminal law and criminal tax
enforcement. Persuasiveness, judgment, and a collaborative orientation are also highly valued.
Applicants with prosecution experience and/or an accounting, tax, or business background are
encouraged to apply.
Applicants must possess a J.D. degree, and must be duly licensed and authorized to practice as
an attorney under the laws of any state or territory of the United States or the District of
Columbia. Active bar membership (of any jurisdiction) is required. United States citizenship is
required.
The Tax Division anticipates hiring criminal litigators with varying levels of experience.
Applicants must have at least 1 year of full-time post-J.D. legal experience by the date the
application is submitted.
Attorneys hired by the Tax Division commit to serving a minimum of four (4) years.
Salary: Years and quality of experience will be considered in determining the appropriate salary
level. Positions may be filled at the GS levels of GS-12 ($75,621 - $ 98,305), GS-13 ($89,924 $116,901); or GS-14 ($106,263 - $138,136). In limited circumstances,
Travel: Regular and periodic litigation-based travel will be required.
Application Process:
Applications must include a cover letter, resume, and law school transcript, a list of three
professional references, and a completed assessment questionnaire. All documents should be
provided in either PDF or MS Word format. The cover letter, which should not exceed two
single-spaced pages, should describe how your background and qualifications make you well
suited for the position as a Trial Attorney in the Criminal Enforcement Sections of the Tax
Division. Accordingly, you should specifically provide a description of prior litigation
experience, and your interest in public service and the Tax Division in particular. Failure to
include all required documents may affect consideration of your application.
Candidates selected for further consideration will be required to submit a writing sample prior to
an interview.

selected applicants starting in the spring of 2015, subject to successful completion of the preemployment security process.

2 Positions
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
WASHINGTON, D.C.
Executive Summary
Ayuda, a nationally recognized leader in providing services to low-income immigrants through
direct legal, social, and language services, training, and outreach, is seeking an accomplished,
strategic, and forward-thinking leader to join the organization as its next Executive Director. The
Executive Director will lead a passionate and dedicated team of staff members, volunteers, and
interns and will be charged with implementing the organization’s strategic vision. S/he will
oversee Ayuda's direct services, advocacy, linguistic, and other programs, lead the fundraising
process and donor relations, manage internal operations in collaboration with the management
team, assure fiscal integrity, provide leadership in community affairs and collaborative
initiatives, and serve as the public voice of the organization. S/he will seek, identify, and nurture
relationships with the organization’s donors and stakeholders and will report to the Board of
Directors. The Executive Director will have the opportunity to impact the lives of thousands of
immigrants and their families and contribute to a proven model of service by leading a talented
team that is mission-focused, results-oriented, passionate, and fun. The ideal candidate is a
mission-driven leader with a proven ability to initiate, cultivate, and manage relationships with
key stakeholders and funders to meet ambitious development goals. S/he must demonstrate the
ability to motivate, inspire, and build staff with an eye toward team building and fostering
professional growth. S/he will be entrepreneurial and nimble, with the ability to adapt to
changing circumstances and opportunities. The Executive Director must be a committed
advocate for the mission, the staff, and the clientele of Ayuda.
About Ayuda
Ayuda, a 501(c)(3) non-profit celebrating 41 years of service to the Greater Washington
metropolitan area, has a longstanding history of assisting immigrants, and is poised to meet a
growing and changing need in the immigrant community and to serve as an increasingly relevant
partner in the region. Ayuda is seeking an Executive Director who will advance the
organization’s mission in a new era of growth and help it to realize the vision of a community
where all immigrants succeed and thrive in the United States. Ayuda is unique among non-profit
providers in the DC metro area in providing a wide range of immigration and family law
assistance, as well as social services support and language services, for all immigrants –
including men, women, and children – from anywhere in the world. Ayuda strives for a holistic
approach to its work in order to serve as a single-stop resource for all client needs. Ayuda staff
members are leaders in providing specialized services for immigrant children, LGBT clients, and
immigrant survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking. Ayuda’s
programs are designed to help its clients realize their legal rights and obtain lawful immigration
status, including residency or U.S. citizenship, reunite with family members, and create a safe
home for themselves and their children. Ayuda has more than 25 staff members and has offices
in Washington, D.C. and Falls Church, VA. The operating budget for 2014 is approximately $2.5
million. Last year, Ayuda assisted in more than 4,000 immigration, family law, and social
services matters.
Key Responsibilities of the Executive Director
Leadership and Management: The Executive Director is accountable for Ayuda’s performance
in all areas. S/he will be an inspiration and role model to all other staff members, will leverage
their expertise in the fulfillment of Ayuda’s goals, and will ensure that they have the support and
guidance to successfully implement Ayuda’s programs. S/he will take a collaborative approach
to addressing the challenges of the organization together with senior staff members and the
Board. The Executive Director will provide support and supervision to the management team and
the staff accountant, including assisting them in the development of performance goals, setting
benchmarks, and conducting evaluations.
Fundraising and Development: The Executive Director will be responsible for ensuring
Ayuda’s long-term financial stability and growth. Effective fundraising will include the
maintenance, strategic management, and expansion of both federal and foundation grants and the
solicitation of support from individual and corporate donors through relationship building,
networking, and increased public visibility. Ayuda’s stakeholders range from the federal
government to municipalities, and from corporations and law firms to other nonprofits and
individuals. The Executive Director will maintain, build, and strengthen these relationships
through a range of communication strategies. The ideal candidate will have several of these
stakeholder relationships already established.
Program Development, Implementation, and Growth: The Executive Director will support the
successful implementation and growth of Ayuda’s programs of legal consultation and assistance
for immigrants (men, women, and children), human trafficking victims, survivors of domestic
violence and sexual assault, and victims of notario fraud. S/he will seek out and implement new
program opportunities that involve the clients of Ayuda, such as the critically needed expansion
of social services, and will create public/private partnerships to meet clients’ needs while
responding to the ever changing environment of immigration reform. The Executive Director
will also support the further development of Ayuda’s language access programs, including legal
and social services interpreter banks which expand language access for deaf, hard of hearing, and
limited English-proficient individuals. These programs are the foundation of Ayuda’s mission
and will be strengthened and expanded through the Executive Director’s leadership.
Overall Operations and Finance: The Executive Director is responsible for all aspects of
Ayuda’s operations. This includes having a strong understanding of, and ensuring compliance
with, government grant and private funding regulations, monitoring an annual budget of $2.5
million, and maintaining a clean audit each year. Specifically, s/he will develop and ensure
passage of the annual budget, monitor expenditures to ensure spending targets are not exceeded
and income targets are met, and oversee compliance with all relevant regulations and the annual
audit. S/he will assess key needs of the organization, such as facilities and technology
infrastructure, in partnership with the management team, to promote the highest levels of
efficiency. The linchpin of these responsibilities is developing an annual budget in close
collaboration with key staff and the Board, including mapping out projected expenses and
revenue sources. The Executive Director will ensure the financial integrity of the organization
and work closely with the Board of Directors to monitor financial achievement against financial
goals.
Partnership Building and External Affairs: The Executive Director will be a champion for lowincome immigrants in the local community and nationally. S/he will develop and maintain
relationships with local and regional leaders in the corporate and non-profit sectors, as well as
with government funders, law firms, other direct service providers, correlated community-based
organizations, and media. S/he will share the stories of Ayuda’s clientele to communicate to
stakeholders and potential new partners the unique and important role that Ayuda plays in the
region’s immigration challenges. S/he will lead Ayuda’s strategic collaborative efforts in the
region’s legal, social service, and immigrant communities.
Board Development, Diversification, and Expansion: The Executive Director reports to the
Board of Directors and must work collaboratively with its members and committees to
continuously support and encourage their leadership efforts, leverage their abilities, advise and
report on the status of activities (particularly on issues of strategic importance), cultivate positive
relationships between the Board and staff, ensure support for the organization’s operations, and
develop new members who complement the Board’s existing expertise as well as the needs of
the organization. The responsibilities listed above and the projects associated with them are the
ultimate responsibility of the Executive Director. It is understood that these projects may be
assigned at times to direct or shared reports, vendors, or others as the situation dictates.
Qualifications/Skills of the Ideal Candidate
Above all, the Executive Director must have a profound respect for Ayuda’s clientele and both
understand and support that they come first in all activities of the organization. The Executive
Director will come to Ayuda with the desire to change lives, the tenacity to never give up, and
the unflagging belief that Ayuda’s mission is imperative to improving the lives of the region’s
underserved immigrants. S/he will be a visionary, a mentor, an inspiration, and a role model. The
ideal candidate will bring experience in leadership, fundraising, and collaborative partnerships
sufficient to handle any and all challenges with grace, maturity, and the highest level of
professionalism. Finally, the Executive Director will bring sharp strategic thinking skills to the
challenge of envisioning a future for Ayuda that is both ambitious and capable of creatively
leveraging the financial reality of a nonprofit budget. While no one person will embody all of the
qualities enumerated below, the ideal candidate will possess many of these professional and
personal characteristics:
• A minimum of 8 years of executive leadership experience, with particular value placed on
experience working in nonprofit organizations in fast-paced, highgrowth environments;
