Legal Assistant Utah

We pride ourselves on finding and developing people who have the talent and tenacity to address western challenges and deliver sustainable solutions. We are getting things done. We all love this region and are committed to protecting its beautiful landscapes, rivers and thriving communities for generations to come. We are deeply committed to our mission and the impact we have on our region. Diversity and inclusion are an integral part of our strategy and vision. We believe that striving for an inclusive and diverse organization is not only the right thing to do, but also to advance our work. Therefore, we welcome and actively seek out team members and partners with diverse backgrounds and experiences. We are committed to learning from differences and accepting them. We are committed to diversity, equity and inclusion, which we want to bring to work every day. We are aware that we still have a lot of work to do to represent and demonstrate these values more comprehensively. WRA`s employees come from a wide range of professional and personal backgrounds.

We welcomed employees with backgrounds in environmental law, engineering, media, government affairs and non-profit administration, as well as many other fields. We believe our team should reflect the makeup of the communities in which we work and live, and we are taking steps to achieve this goal. We strive to be a place where every member of our team feels they can bring authenticity to the work. Each year, all of our local staff are invited to a three-day retreat in a place that reminds us of the importance of protecting western communities and most precious places. We take this time to reflect on our work, evaluate our impact, build relationships within our organization, and just have fun. WRA offices are closed from 25 December to 1 January. WRA is proud to offer its full-time employees a generous benefits package that promotes well-being and enables a healthy work-life balance. We begin our work with the intention of working together, listening and being an ally for change that makes our environment and communities healthier, safer and more resilient. Western Resource Advocates is committed to creating an organization – and contributing to a broader conservation movement – that is diverse, equitable and inclusive for people from diverse backgrounds. Our team needs to reflect the communities in which we work and live, and we take steps to achieve that goal. We strive to implement environmentally responsible practices in all our offices. For example, our Arizona office practices composting, while our Nevada office is located in a walkable location in downtown Carson City.

Our New Mexico office is ready for bike commuters, and our Utah office is just one block from a light rail station. Our Boulder office practices innovative stormwater harvesting and our Denver office is located in the Alliance Certified Center. Our mission is to ensure that each team member is empowered to perform at their best, develop new ideas by valuing a variety of perspectives and taking into account the needs and schedules of employees. In addition, we offer generous benefits to encourage employees to unplug by taking advantage of paid time off.
