Description

We are looking for a highly motivated and conscientious Programme Administrator primarily working within the Ecosystem Assessment Programme (EAP) with the potential for work with other programmes across the Centre in the future. In this administrative, organisational and technical support role you will be responsible for supporting a team of technical staff in their work on ecosystem assessment including biodiversity indicator development, implementation and communication at global, regional and national scales, regional and national ecosystem assessments, the links of such tools with the development of national biodiversity strategies and multi-lateral environmental agreements (MEAs) and the impacts of agriculture on biodiversity.

As Programme Administrator, you will use your excellent organisational and administrative skills to support the Head of Programme, dedicated Project Management Officer and project leaders in fulfilling a range of tasks including project reporting, events organisation and the preparation of funding applications and collation of information for publications. You will also act as communications focal point for EAP, which will involve reviewing, updating and publishing website content and compiling internal bulletins and reports for the Programme.

You will be highly organised, flexible in approach and able to effectively manage multiple tasks and requests. Knowledge of key biodiversity and ecosystem services issues and concepts; experience in coordinating partners, networks, stakeholder groups or steering committees and working internationally; and fluency in another UN language would be an advantage.

The Centre’s staff are experienced, ambitious and results-orientated, providing an excellent environment to develop and contribute to your own skills. In addition to training and development opportunities, we offer a competitive salary and benefits package, including generous pension contributions.

If you are looking for a rewarding and challenging post where you can impress us with your organisational skills, motivation and commitment we want to hear from you. Please complete a WCMC application form and send it together with your CV and a short covering letter by 8th February 2017.
