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

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
.



Myanmar is a spectacularly diverse country and a melting pot of biological
and socio-cultural diversity. After a decade of reforms and only five years
since the first democratic elections, Myanmar is on an economic development
pathway in which the decisions being made now will determine the future of
its natural assets.  WWF’s vision for Myanmar is that “Myanmar is a global
inspiration on conservation excellence and innovation where nature is
cherished, respected, protected and connects with all who call it home.”
