We seek to hire individuals with a demonstrated commitment to immigrant rights and a passion for serving immigrants and refugees in need of legal services. If you feel that your qualifications fit the description for a position listed below, we invite you to send us a résumé and cover letter for review.

Northwest Immigrant Rights Project (NWIRP) seeks a full-time bilingual Receptionist / Front Desk Coordinator to work in our Seattle office. Applicants must be fluent in English and Spanish, and additional languages are encouraged. The applicant must be able to start the position as soon as possible. A minimum two-year commitment to the position is expected.

As the face and voice of NWIRP’s Seattle office, our front desk staff serve as the first point of contact for community members seeking assistance. This role is shared by two team members who work closely together to manage all aspects of front desk operations.

The front desk team engages directly with clients, screening calls and visitors to connect them with the appropriate departments and, when necessary, making referrals to NWIRP’s partner agencies. They also coordinate scheduling for clinics and workshops hosted by NWIRP and its partners, while overseeing administrative tasks such as managing incoming and outgoing mail. Additional responsibilities are assigned as needed to support the smooth functioning of the office.
