Executive Director

The Executive Director (the "ED") essentially runs

NELA/NY on a day-to-day basis. The ED handles all NELA/NY's administrative

details, coordinates Continuing Legal Education (CLE) programs, administers CLE

certification process, supervises National Employment Lawyers Association’s

Referral Service (NELARS) administrator, assists and/or runs various NELA/NY

events, projects and committee efforts, helps the Board establish and carry out

its goals.

On an "as needed" basis, the Executive Director

coordinates and consults with the President and with such other officers, Board

Members, Committee Chairs and general NELA/NY members. The Executive Director

has general oversight of the finances of NELA/NY and NELARS, but not limited

to, depositing funds, paying bills, regulatory compliance, planning

expenditures, some bookkeeping, preparing reports, financial planning,

assisting with tax returns and the like, as well as working with the Treasurer

who has overall responsibility for NELA/NY's finances.

The Executive Director is responsible for maintaining

professional and cordial relationships with Board members. As the person having

the most hands-on contact with the membership, it is expected that the ED will

endeavor to establish good and helpful relations with new and old members of

NELA/NY.
