*Want to make a positive difference to the future of people and our one
shared home - the Earth? Working at WWF could be your opportunity of a
lifetime.*



All around the world, people are waking up to the deepening crisis of
nature loss. A growing realization that nature is our life-support system.
And that nobody will be spared from the impacts of its loss. Here at WWF,
we are helping to tackle this enormous global challenge.

Our people come from hugely diverse backgrounds and with a variety of
expertise, ranging from HR and finance to advocacy and conservation
science. We welcome applications from anyone who believes they can help us
create a better future for people and wildlife.



*What we do*



We are an independent conservation organization, striving to sustain the
natural world for the benefit of people and wildlife. From individuals and
communities to business and government, we are part of a growing coalition
calling on world leaders to set nature on the path to recovery by 2030.
Together, we seek to protect and restore natural habitats, stop the mass
extinction of wildlife, and make the way we produce and consume sustainably.



*About WWF-Vietnam*



WWF was one of the first International non-government organizations working
in Vietnam. In 1985, WWF began working on a national conservation strategy
and since then has worked closely with the Vietnamese Government on a
diverse range of environmental issues and implemented field activities
across the country. Find out more at http://vietnam.panda.org/*.* WWF
recognizes that its employees are its most important asset. A competent
workforce, thoroughly trained, properly motivated and bound together by
mutual trust and common objectives is crucial to the success of WWF.



The Mekong Delta of Vietnam, comprising of 12 provinces and one central
city, has been identified as the area most severely impacted by climate
change (CC) in the world, with consequent impacts (caused by draught,
flood, salinity intrusion, soil erosion, etc.) to local communities,
especially the poor ones living in core and buffer-zones of wetland areas
who rely heavily on the ecosystem services they provide.



The natural wetland sites in the Delta play an important role for global
biodiversity and provide food, fire wood, medicines, and other products
that are vital for local communities’ livelihoods. Under the WWF Freshwater
Practice wetlands’ conservation strategy, the project will focus work in
three key wetlands of the Mekong Delta also designated as RAMSAR sites;
Lang Sen WR, Mui Ca Mau NP and U Minh Thuong NP, to improve local
communities’ livelihoods and their resilience to climate change by taking
actions in restoring and conserving wetland ecosystems they rely on.





We are looking for a *Project Manager, based in Ho Chi Minh City with
frequent travel to project sites in the Mekong Delta. *As our Project
Manager, you will be in charge of the implementation of activities in
relation to the SDC project “Improving the lives of poor communities in
Viet Nam’s Mekong delta through conservation-friendly alternative
livelihoods in Ramsar designated wetlands”



*In order to be a good fit, you should have:*



·         Master degree in fields related to Natural Resources Management,
Environmental Protection, Water Resources Management, Biology or in
relevant fields;

·         Expertise in project management/coordination; working experience
with conservation NGOs an asset;

·         More than 10-year working experience in the field of conservation
or relevant fields in Vietnam;

·         Thorough understanding of socio-economic, natural conservation
and wetland issues in the Mekong region;

·      Good understanding of the Mekong Delta, specifically on issues
related to: wetland conservation, water bird conservation, climate change,
salinity intrusion, hydrology, community development.

·        Knowledge of the policy/institutional context related to wetland
conservation and the government agencies, development partners, donor
institutions, and the not- for-profit sector in the region.
