Overview

We are recruiting three key leadership positions for our International Secretariat to help us achieve our new ambitious goals, and build a future where people live in harmony with nature

We are in a unique moment of unparalleled opportunity for the future of our planet and our society – the agreements around the Sustainable Development Goals, the Paris climate agreement and the UN Resolution on wildlife crime are a testimony to that. WWF must capitalize on this momentum.

Last year, WWF launched a new strategy that harnesses the strengths of the WWF network in a shared vision, focussing on six major goals – water, wildlife, the ocean, climate and energy, forests, and food – and three key drivers of environmental problems – markets, finance and governance.

In support of this strategy WWF undertook a redesign of its international secretariat that will further unite WWF offices and its 6,400 staff around the world. This will help WWF to build stronger partnerships across the world with government, business, civil society and individuals. Together, we will deliver on WWF’s ambitious goals.

WWF International is looking to recruit three key leadership positions:

  • EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, OPERATIONS – Leading WWF International operations, including finance & administration, HR, ICT and Legal, to ensure excellence and efficiency across a globally distributed operation, inclusive of WWF International offices.
  • EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, NETWORK DEVELOPMENT – Developing, leading and coordinating the WWF network development strategy, management of regional directors and programme offices managed by WWF International, set standards and processes of integrated performance management.
  • EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, FUNDRAISING – Support the vision to dramatically increase public and private resources, working collaboratively with WWF offices to enable sustainable growth and cross-border philanthropy. Raising funds for WWF International and in support of WWF’s major goals.
