Description

We are looking for someone with experience of working with the agro-commodities sector and a proven track record of engaging stakeholders to play a key role in the Forest Team.

WWF has been exploring the impacts of livestock and soy production on high conservation value forests in Latin America, as well as the climate impact of consumption in the UK and Europe.

You’ll develop and deliver a comprehensive forest conversion strategy focusing on soy and livestock production, researching the effects of consumption and engaging with the UK and European food industry to raise awareness. You’ll also build strong working relationships with external partners and WWF field offices.

An excellent communicator with a strong track record in technical project management, you should also have experience of working with the agrocommodities private sector, and an interest in commodity trade issues.
