Earthsight is looking for a researcher/campaigner to join our Southeast Asia and Africa team, delivering impactful research, analyses and advocacy on forest-risk commodity supply chains.

Earthsight is a London-based non-profit organisation dedicated to researching and investigating environmental and social crime and injustice. We use cutting-edge investigative methods to uncover and expose wrongdoing. Since emerging as a fully-fledged organisation in 2016, our reports have garnered headlines, won awards and triggered major changes by governments and corporations.

We seek to create positive change by influencing government policy, exposing greenwashing and raising awareness among key constituencies about the impacts of global supply chains on the world’s forests and forest communities.

Most global deforestation is driven by industrial production of a handful of major commodities, including beef, soy, palm oil and wood. A large proportion of this production is to meet demand in major international markets. Earthsight plays a key role in highlighting the complicity of corporations in the EU, UK and US in the destruction of ecosystems and human rights violations overseas. As part of global coalitions, we have succeeded in getting laws developed or passed in all these jurisdictions which aim to eliminate environmental or human rights abuses from these supply chains.

As part of a small team, you will monitor developments in Southeast Asia and Africa relating to commodity-driven deforestation, including wood, palm oil, cocoa and rubber. You will help to deliver in-depth investigations which expose large companies for sourcing products linked to horrific abuses, and trigger government action in response.

You will lead Earthsight’s monitoring of the global timber industry, and will share your findings and insights with the rest of the team, particularly in relation to the sector’s certification and traceability schemes and technologies.

The position is offered as a full-time permanent contract. The successful candidate would preferably be based in the UK and able to come into our office in London on a regular basis.

• Keep abreast of wider policy and industry developments in key countries in Southeast Asia and Africa, including case studies of deforestation or rights abuses related to the commodities of concern; general deforestation trends; and developments in government policy related to the impact of commodities on forests
• Carry out desk-based research into chosen case studies, drawing on shipment data, company reports and websites, satellite imagery, corporate records and trading websites; and through remote meetings with relevant actors, including researchers and activists in the countries concerned
• Assist in planning and carrying out field research on selected cases if needed. Occasional travel to moderately risky environments may be required

• Assist with efforts to secure media coverage for reports, analyses and op-eds, including by helping draft press releases and briefing journalists on details of research
• Assist with production of social media content, particularly on LinkedIn
• Support Southeast Asia & Africa Team Lead in implementing advocacy activities based on research findings and the organisation’s overall strategic goals, including by participating in meetings with policymakers, civil servants, NGOs and other key stakeholders (either remotely or in person in the UK or EU)
