: Por lo general, aunque estoy más que consciente que no son contextos iguales, cuando se trata de ONG el término advocacy se traduce como defensa.

director (del departamento) legal
Dependiendo el caso en particular y del contexto, se me ocurren dos posibilidades: que "Advocacy" se esté refiriendo a la sección encargada de la abogacía/legal de la institución (en tal caso director legal), o que se encargue de la promoción de la salud (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_advocacy), en cuyo caso "director de promoción de la salud" pienso que podría andar.
Un par de ideas, espero que pueda ser de ayuda.

director de comunicación (y portavoz principal)
En realidad no es una posición legal, no se trata de abogacía, pero de abogar en el sentido de hablar a favor de algo. Frecuentemente se usa la palabra "comunicación" en el título

Discussion
Me parece que en el caso "de defensa", en español tendemos a usarlo más para temas militares que referidos a la abogacía. Pero me permito sugerirte, de atrevido, que mires si este hombre no está dedicado a la tan llamada "advocacy health" que comenté en mi respuesta. Digo porque justo el sustantivo "advocacy" da para pensar en las dos acepciones. ¡Un saludo!
Gracias.
