Our world is experiencing a catastrophic decline in biodiversity and food production is a major driver of this loss. At WWF we have a vision that our planet can sustainably produce the food needed to feed a growing global population without harming nature. With seafood representing a significant proportion of global animal protein consumed the need to deliver sustainably produced seafood is vital for us and our planet.

You will commission and manage research and studies to deliver specific seafood programme objectives too. You will also collaborate with colleagues to ensure the deliveries of seafood improvement and advocacy work as well as communicate issues of importance to the seafood programme in-line with our overarching food sustainability strategies.

To play a part in building back nature, you must have a relevant degree or experience of seafood supply chains, aquaculture, fisheries and/or marine science in public, private, academic or NGO sectors. This will have given you sound knowledge of seafood markets and supply chains as well as aquaculture and fisheries policies.

Capable of analysing scientific evidence and data you will be comfortable understanding, absorbing and synthesising complex information, and translating it into impactful policy, advice and communications. You will enjoy working in dynamic teams that could be remote, multicultural or matrix too.

We believe in the potential of everyone regardless of; sex, race, religion or belief, ethnic origin, different physical ability, family structure, socio-economics, age, nationality or citizenship, marital, domestic or civil partnership, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other aspect that makes you, well you.  Here at WWF, we are committed to conscious inclusion that helps cultivate an ethos of belonging, connection and shared purpose.

We believe that the more diverse we are the better we become; this brings us together and empowers us to develop, engage and inspire; and critically to help build a future where people can live in harmony with nature.

Our world needs you like never before. We are the first generation to know we are destroying the world and we could be the last that can do anything about it. We are looking for people who are passionate about making it politically, socially and economically unacceptable to destroy our planet’s natural resources.
