Job FieldData, Business Analysis and AI , ICT / Computer , Project Management

We are seeking a candidate with strong technical expertise and experience in fisheries, particularly in community-based fisheries management principles. The ideal candidate will have a background in fisheries science and ecology, with a solid understanding of community-led approaches to fisheries management and conservation. They should be skilled in supporting partners to interpret data and apply it to inform management decisions.

Experience in research and managing data collection is essential, ideally within the fisheries and socio-economic sectors. The role requires substantial skills in data collection, management, and analysis, along with practical experience in working with environmental data to produce reports and analyses. As this position involves communicating complex scientific concepts to non-technical audiences, exceptional communication skills and the ability to simplify technical language for a broader audience are crucial.

The candidate will coordinate with team members across all BV countries, ensuring methodologies, tools, and training resources are consistent and aligned with global strategies. This includes collaborating to adapt resources to local contexts while maintaining alignment with organisational goals and sharing knowledge from Kenya to foster learning across the organisation.

The successful candidate will contribute to developing and rolling out tools and training to our partners in Kenya to help communities monitor and manage fisheries and coastal ecosystems, working closely with the global Technical Knowledge, Data Science and Programme performance teams. These types of tools and materials include:

Accessible tools and appropriate technologies:

• Intuitive to use and readily available, including software and mobile apps for data collection and interpretation; simple decision-support tools for assessment, planning, and problem resolution; and community-level materials for everyday activities, such as meeting facilitation guides

Educational resources:

• Manuals, guides, videos, and online materials that provide concise information and serve as self-learning tools, allowing partners to access and acquire knowledge at their own pace.

Work Hours: 8

Experience in Months: 12

Level of Education: bachelor degree
