Position: Coalition Coordinator
Based: Brussels or London. For exceptional candidates, other locations may be
considered
Contract: Full-time, 2 year fixed-term
Salary range: dependent upon experience and location
Position overview
This is an exciting opportunity to work with the leading NGOs dedicated to the protection,
conservation, and restoration of the world’s oceans. The Environmental Justice Foundation
(EJF), Oceana, The Nature Conservancy, The Pew Charitable Trusts and WWF are working together
as the EU IUU Fishing Coalition to promote EU leadership in improving global fisheries
transparency and governance to end illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing.
Since 2014, the Coalition has been working to improve the EU’s own anti-IUU fishing systems and
policies, and to promote some of the EU’s best practices on ocean governance and fisheries
transparency in other regions such as East Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Using the EU’s
influence as a major flag and market State, we are helping the EU to drive policy change at the
global level, prioritising increasing transparency in the fisheries sector as a means to
improve global fisheries governance. To achieve this, we are working with the EU as it
implements its zero-tolerance commitment against IUU fishing and to improve ocean governance,
urging EU agencies and states to be ambitious and ensure that positive reforms are sustained.
We are also engaging the EU, as a major global player, to work more closely with other seafood
markets, such as Japan and the US, to harmonise policies to stop IUU fishing. To make this
happen, we are engaging with key decision-makers, strengthening relationships with the seafood
industry and the NGO community, engaging citizens on the topic, using media strategically and
providing intelligence to the EU.
To oversee the delivery of these objectives, the Coalition is seeking a full-time
Project Coordinator to work closely with the Strategic Board and working level project partners
(core group) to achieve the successful management of the project. The individual will
have excellent management and organisational skills and be capable of working with a dispersed
and diverse multinational team. They should have the ability to provide strategic direction,
good negotiation skills and experience building high-performance cultures. Additionally, the
successful candidate will possess good written and verbal communication skills, initiative and
professional drive. Experience in working within coalitions is an advantage.
