We are looking for an experienced and qualified Technical Specialist to join Fauna & Flora to provide both technical input and project management skills to the Combating Wildlife Trafficking Activity (CWTA) project. The project has been established to combat wildlife trafficking as a means to reduce threats to biodiversity in the Caribbean region.

We are looking for an experienced coordinator with the ability to deliver within a complex conservation project.
