TRAFFIC is the leading non-governmental organization working globally on trade in wild animals and plants in the context of both biodiversity conservation and sustainable development.
TRAFFIC International is a charity and limited company registered in the UK. TRAFFIC’s head office, based in Cambridge UK, provides worldwide leadership, coordination, cross-regional and corporate functions. TRAFFIC’s local engagement is managed through programme offices operating under the auspices of the UK charity, with staff based in a hub office and at other strategic locations where necessary. Programme offices operate within a geographic area of responsibility focused on one or multiple countries where TRAFFIC aims to help deliver priority programme outcomes. TRAFFIC works in strategic alliance with IUCN and WWF on wildlife trade issues.
The Wildlife Trade Analyst-Africa will be responsible for overseeing the input of wildlife trade data into TRAFFIC’s database for Africa, a task that will require attention to detail, corroboration of facts, referencing of sources and the maintenance of a high level of data quality. Data entered will enable the production of informative outputs on wildlife trade dynamics and will be developed in collaboration with other TRAFFIC staff. Wildlife trade dynamic reports will be produced for circulation to conservation practitioners and law enforcement entities including those responsible for regulation of the trade, for action and follow up.
