We are looking for a KBA Regional Focal Point for Africa and Madagascar (henceforth Africa) who would also support francophone countries elsewhere in the world.

  • Identify training needs within the region, inform the head of the KBA Secretariat and work with him to find funding for training. Help also in translating training materials into French.
  • Maintain regular contact with the respective KBA Community Regional Representatives and support their work in the region
  • Support proposals for KBAs and provide the first review of proposals to help KBA Proposers with the proposal process
  • Organise external review of proposals from the region
  • Support the nomination of reviewed proposals to the KBA Secretariat in Cambridge
  • What we are looking for :

  • MSc level qualification in relevant subject and / or equivalent experience working in conservation in Africa

  • Fluency in both French and English.
  • Some nice to haves :

  • Experience within multiple countries in the Africa region
  • Prior knowledge and experience with the KBA criteria and their application would be an advantage; however, a strong willingness to learn and engage with these is essential.
  • Salary & benefits : Commensurate with experience and qualifications and in accordance with BirdLife International, Africa Division terms and conditions. These will vary depending on exact location.
