This is a great opportunity for an experienced administrator to join a small, friendly team and provide essential support across membership administration and day-to-day operations.

The organisation supports a community of senior professionals and is looking for someone highly organised, confident and able to quickly pick up established processes and take ownership of their workload.

We work at the frontlines of environmental injustice, alongside communities most affected by climate breakdown, biodiversity loss, and exploitation - transforming evidence into action, and injustice into lasting change.

Through field investigations, rigorous research, and strategic international advocacy, we expose environmental crime, challenge impunity, and catalyse systemic reform. Our work delivers real-world impact, shaping policy, strengthening governance, protecting vital ecosystems, and defending those who risk their lives to safeguard them.

Our campaigns span four interconnected areas: oceans, climate, forests and wetlands, and the training, protection, and empowerment of environmental defenders and investigative journalists. From illegal fishing and plastic pollution to deforestation, land grabs, and climate breakdown, we confront some of the most complex and urgent crises of our time - always with a focus on accountability, equity, and durable solutions.

With superb organisational and communication skills, you are efficient in remote project management, able to quickly assess, synthesise, and apply information, agree on strategic priorities, and develop bespoke approaches that optimise outcomes and mitigate risks.

You are adept at tracking deliverables, bringing teams and project partners together to achieve meaningful conservation impact and share progress through inspirational communications outputs, including film, reports and grant reporting. 

Key responsibilities

• Resource hub management – support the launch of the Environmental Reporting Resource Hub, ensuring environmental defenders from the Global South have access to these resources. Update content, create new materials, and coordinate translations and dissemination as necessary to optimise use and impact.

• Global coordination and support – coordinate with colleagues (regional leads, video producers, investigators, trainers, and campaigners) across target countries to provide support to environmental defenders. Facilitate knowledge sharing between teams to strengthen existing capacity and provide insights where necessary.

• Subgrants management - monitor subgrants provided to environmental defenders, review activity progress and financial reports, and identify potential new subgrantees.
