About Oregon Consumer Justice

Usurious payday loans, unfair debt collection and credit reporting tactics, deceptive student loan services, hidden banking and credit fees, mortgage, housing, insurance and construction fraud, imposter scams, illegal towing, misrepresented medical and travel services, telecom monopolies, dishonest auto sales, repairs, and financing. The need for consumer justice is everywhere – and the majority of this need isn’t being met.

Oregon Consumer Justice (OCJ) is committed to ensuring that all people in Oregon experience a safe and fair marketplace by building an equitable and sustainable ecosystem that puts people first, makes sure that every financial and business transaction is fair and safe, and ensures that consumers have recourse when their rights are violated. OCJ advances the rights of consumers through advocacy, strategic litigation, research, education, and engagement, and works to bring consumer justice into balance for all Oregonians.

OCJ is now seeking an inaugural Chief Equity, Inclusion and Engagement Officer who will bring vision and strategic leadership to shaping early-stage organizational development. The position is a full-time exempt role and reports to the Executive Director.

 

Position Overview

The Chief Equity, Inclusion & Engagement Officer (CEIEO) is a senior leader who provides strategic and programmatic leadership that advances a culture of equity diversity and inclusion as a critical component of Oregon Consumer Justice (OCJ). This position serves as a catalyst to leverage best practices and resources at OCJ through collaboration with organizations and stakeholders to build a robust network of partnerships across the organization and community in order to achieve DEI goals. In this role, the CEIEO is also responsible for creating and promoting an equitable workforce that drives employee and community engagement for all to feel welcomed and thrive. 

The Chief Equity, Inclusion & Engagement Officer works across programs but with a particular emphasis on (1) community engagement, recruitment, retention, and institutional equity; (2) partnering with senior leaders to embed equity as we develop and drive forward the key strategies of the organization (3) Oregon Consumer Justice programs and (4) the Board of Directors and Committees.

This position manages the Equity & Engagement Team and reports directly to the Executive Director and serves as the senior advisor to the Executive Director and OCJ leadership on E&I initiatives, programs, and policies.

 

Commitment to Equity

OCJ sits at the intersection of law, policy, coalition and community advocates and Oregon consumers, with a particular commitment to those consumers and communities most harmed by predatory and fraudulent practices. All roles at OCJ will require: a willingness to share power, collaboration and teamwork, empathy, radical listening, adaptive communications skills, openness to learning and failure and growth, a capacity to embrace discomfort and resolve conflicts, racial awareness and experience recognizing intersectionality and identity, and personal reflection. All employees at OCJ will be asked to participate in ongoing work to develop strong internal and external systems that support movement towards equity and justice.

Location

This position is Oregon based, and location in the Portland metro area will be required once OCJ establishes a physical office space (expected in Fall/Winter 2023). Until then, all staff work virtually from home. OCJ’s standard work schedule is between 8am and 5pm PT, with some flexibility possible. Willingness and ability to occasionally travel within Oregon is required.
