Fauna & Flora International (FFI) is the world’s oldest international wildlife conservation organisation. We have been quietly shaping and influencing conservation practice since our foundation in 1903. Our focus is on protecting biodiversity (the diversity of life on Earth), which underpins healthy ecosystems and is critical for the life-support systems that humans and all other species rely on.

FFI is seeking an experienced conservation professional to fulfil the role of Project Manager, who will assume responsibility for managing implementation and development of one or more of FFI’s field sites in South Sudan.

The successful candidates will have a strong proven track record in supporting protected area management, ideally with experience of co-management and development models working with community members, in Africa. They will be skilled in providing strategic advice and technical input to the design, development, implementation, evaluation and reporting for projects and will have excellent project, grant and financial management skills.

Strong people management skills are essential to the role to ensure a professional and motivated team that delivers effectively against project aims, objectives and timelines. The role also requires a skilled and credible communicator, who is confident in developing and managing relationships with partner organisations and relevant stakeholders, and able to write donor proposals and reports. Additionally, the ability to lead and operate in a conflict / post-conflict situation is essential.

The successful candidates will have a strong track record in project management, fundraising and capacity building, as well as a commitment to organisational, donor and legal compliance.
