Founded in 1903, Fauna & Flora
International (FFI) is the world’s longest-established international
conservation organisation. Our vision is to create a sustainable future
for the planet where biodiversity is conserved by the people living
closest to it. We aim to do this through the conservation of threatened
species and ecosystems worldwide, choosing solutions that are
sustainable, based on sound science and take account of human needs. We
have become a trusted entity in the world of conservation. Today FFI is
active in over 40 countries.
FFI wishes to recruit a Project
Coordinator for its Integrated Species, Livelihoods and Cultural Values
Project within its Cambodia Country Programme to ensure that the
Cultural and Economic Incentives for Endangered Species Conservation
Project, funded by the Darwin Initiative and under the Flagship Species
Programme, meets its impact target. This project aims to ensure that
Cambodia’s indigenous Khmer Daeum achieve a higher social status and
living standards and contribute effectively to the protection and
recovery of Cambodia’s Siamese crocodile and Asian elephant populations.
The project represents efforts to align FFI’s long-running endangered
species-focused activities in the Cardamom Mountains with some of the
community-focused approaches it has piloted elsewhere, to create an
integrated, successful approach to both species and forest conservation
and sustainable livelihoods development. As the Flagship Species
Programme is well established and staffed, this role requires an
individual with knowledge of and experience in community engagement and
sustainable agricultural livelihoods development.
The post-holder will work closely with
the Flagship Species Manager (FFI Cambodia Programme) to coordinate and
manage day-to-day project implementation in close collaboration with
all project staff, partner organisations and stakeholders. There will be
a heavy emphasis on effective Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) at
the project level and liaising with all project partners and
stakeholders to achieve the project deliverables. As well as requiring
strong monitoring and evaluation experience, the post-holder will be
responsible for project development and fundraising efforts to ensure
that the project design can be fully executed, and will contribute
heavily to wider FFI Cambodia programme planning and fundraising efforts
on relevant topics and in relevant geographies.
