What if your next legal role wasn’t just about cases but about shaping how an entire system works?
The State of Iowa is hiring a Chief Deputy Workers’ Compensation Commissioner, a leadership role with the opportunity to influence how decisions are made, how teams operate, and how the system evolves.
- Lead a team of legal professionals
- Partner directly with executive leadership
- Help modernize and improve a statewide adjudication system
