Amnesty International (AI) leads the way in tackling global human rights abuses and challenging impunity for crimes under international law. But we always want to do more. Our campaign for international justice needs the support of expert international legal analysis and it is here that you will play a vital role to help us make a real difference.
About the role
As a member of our international justice team, at least 50% of your time will be dedicated to providing legal advice to our global campaign for international justice, drawing on your knowledge of international human rights, humanitarian and criminal law to provide expert advice on challenging impunity at the global and national level. The rest of your time will involve developing and implementing campaign and advocacy strategies and actions on international justice issues for our movement. You may also represent AI at international meetings and participate in AI missions.
About you
You will have extensive knowledge of international law, especially those aspects of particular relevance to human rights issues and international justice including the work of international criminal tribunals, universal jurisdiction and addressing crimes under international law by domestic justice systems. You will also have sound political judgement and strategic thinking, and be able to use international law to achieve human rights impact. Furthermore, excellent oral and written English are a must; a good working knowledge of Arabic, French, Mandarin, Spanish or Russian is also desirable.
About us
Our aim is simple: an end to human rights abuses. Independent, international and influential, we campaign for justice, freedom and truth wherever they’re denied. Already our network of over three million members and supporters is making a difference in 150 countries. And whether we’re applying pressure through powerful research or direct lobbying, mass demonstrations or online campaigning, we’re all inspired by hope for a better world. One where human rights are respected and protected by everyone, everywhere.
