The Deputy Director directly supports Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians (ATNI) by coordinating day-to-day administrative functions of the ATNI Portland office. This also includes direct administrative support for the conferences and special events. Reporting to the executive director (ED), the Deputy Director will have both internal and external facing responsibilities, ranging from client and project management (organizational development, framing of key approaches, high-quality membership delivery of services, written products) to administration (information technology, reporting, facilities), and human capital (HR/recruiting, mentoring, career progression).
The Deputy Director will work closely with the ED to assist in facilitation of the ATNI executive board’s strategic planning in response to future growth and strategic response to an ever increasing demand for the organization’s services.

ATNI has also been able to support the administrative needs of the Natural Resource/Land Committee by drafting resolutions, organizing and coordinating topics and agendas, and assisting in the follow up and implementation of resolution policy directives. We are able to develop and maintain a list serve for comprehensive information dissemination as well as to obtain and share input from Tribes on issues of common concern. Over the past two years, ATNI produced over 30 regionally approved policy resolutions related to environmental and natural resource management, remediation, and protection. These resolutions provide regional policy guidance for ATNI member Tribes and federal and state partners. The ATNI Natural Resource/Land Committee and Natural Resource Policy Coordinator provides communication and coordination of policy and technical issues regionally and nationally.
