Location: Fauna & Flora International, Cambridge, UK. (Some remote working may be considered)

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.

We are offering a unique opportunity for a qualified Programme Officer to support our work around Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) as parental leave cover, for a period of up to one year. Working closely with colleagues across FFI, you will play an important role in supporting the technical design, implementation, and use of context-appropriate, pragmatic project MEL and in delivery of FFI’s organisational impact assessment process.

You will have a good working knowledge and experience of using of Theory of Change approaches to project design and monitoring and evaluation, alongside experience of delivering conservation on the ground, ideally in less developed countries. You should be passionate about supporting others to develop their knowledge and skills, while being open to learning and able to quickly pick up new skills. Ideally, you will have experience of working in a cross-cultural environment and, as a member of a UK-based team working to support projects across FFI’s portfolio, you will bring strong communication and interpersonal skills to enable you to build effective working relationships across all levels of the organisation. You will work collaboratively with project teams, partners, and those working to strengthen MEL across FFI to document and share learning, including the production of guidance materials, active participation in a Community of Practice, facilitating peer learning and training and supporting FFI’s annual reporting process. You will have strong administration, organisational and time management skills and a structured and methodical approach to work.

In return, the role offers the opportunity to work within a ground-breaking and entrepreneurial organisation, at the forefront of global conservation. In addition, FFI offers a generous pension contribution, attractive annual leave allowance and life insurance.
