Job description

The Arctic Initiative Lead will provide overall leadership for the development of an exciting grant from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, using this to test the opportunity for longer term Fauna & Flora engagement in this region. Working closely with relevant Directors, the role will deliver the Arctic Initiative in line with agreed outcomes and funding. This role will provide overall leadership for the planned scope of work and will help to drive its strategic evolution in line with a phased, adaptive approach over the lifetime of the grant, and inform decisions about any future engagement.

A central element of the project will be stewarding the development of a new platform to elevate Arctic community voices in global decision-making. The post-holder will play a critical role in ensuring this work contributes to a more people-centred narrative in international policy, finance, and conservation debates, and is shaped through a phased co-design process grounded in listening, trust-building and community-defined priorities, and will evolve as learning emerges. Given the scope and profile of the work, expertise from previous similar initiatives is highly desirable.

You will bring recognised expertise in Arctic political and governance contexts, with proven experience engaging credibly with both senior policy makers and community representatives. Comfortable representing Fauna & Flora at national and international levels, you will combine effective leadership with the ability to work effectively in an international NGO, including managing in a matrix-like structure. The role will also involve building and leading a small, high-performing team. You will have a leadership style that empowers others, values collaboration and learning, excellent people-management skills, and the ability to deliver complex work to a high standard against project aims, objectives and timelines.

In return, the role offers the opportunity to work within a ground-breaking and entrepreneurial organisation, at the forefront of global conservation, and to help shape an ambitious initiative at a formative stage. In addition, Fauna & Flora offers a generous pension contribution, an attractive annual leave allowance and life insurance. This position is based at Fauna & Flora’s Cambridge office, with partial remote working, to be agreed between the post-holder and line manager.

Please visit our website and download the job application pack for further details on how to apply.

The closing date for applications is 30th March 2026. Interviews are likely to take place during the week commencing the 13th of April.

This role is not eligible for sponsorship of a Skilled Worker Visa
