1 MISSION OF THE DEPARTMENT

United by our passion for the ocean, the Oceans Practice is a community of over 600 WWF marine conservation and fisheries experts working across 60 countries. This community is supported by a coordination team, tasked with promoting coordinated conservation action, establishing strategic partnerships, building consensus on key policy issues, coordinating policy advocacy, raising funds and facilitating peer-to-peer learning.

2 MAJOR FUNCTIONS

For more than a decade, WWF has advocated for protecting 30% of the ocean by 2030, a target formally adopted by UN member states in the Global Biodiversity Framework in December 2022. With 8.4% of the ocean currently protected, this represents a commitment to more than triple the extent of marine protected and conserved areas (MPCAs) by 2030.

To capitalise on this historic opportunity, marine conservation experts from across the WWF network are working together to advance the establishment and effective management of MPCA networks at the national, regional and international level.

WWF is now seeking a Global Lead, Ocean Habitats to support coordinated action and increased impact by WWF offices seeking to advance the establishment and effective management of MPCA networks in collaboration with partners and coastal communities.
