Description

The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) works to safeguard the world’s seafood supply by promoting the best environmental choice in seafood to the consumer through the use of its eco-label. The organization is recognised internationally as a groundbreaking and credible solution to the serious environmental problem of overfishing.

The Stakeholder & Fisheries Outreach Officer (SFOO) will be responsible for outreach to the fishery sector and the scientific and marine and environmental NGO communities in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. The post holder will increase awareness and understanding of the MSC programme and the part the MSC plays in delivering solutions to the environmental challenges of overfishing amongst these stakeholder groups while liaising closely with MSC fisheries work going on elsewhere in Europe. Outreach activities will involve a detailed analysis of the German fishing sector, making presentations, relationship building and building support and engagement amongst potential partners and interest groups.

Ultimately the post strives to deepen MSC’s understanding of the German fishery and related sectors and through outreach and active engagement, to increase the purchasing opportunities for consumers by achieving wider availability of MSC certified products in the German-speaking countries and in Europe where demand for certified seafood is growing rapidly.

The SFOO may also be involved in ongoing and future MSC projects.
