FishSec is a non-profit organisation dedicated to the protection and restoration of marine ecosystem services, with a focus on fisheries in the Baltic Sea region and the European Union. Our long-term goal is well managed seas with rich biodiversity and thriving fish stocks to secure healthy and local seafood to consumers and a sustainable fishing sector. We advocate for fisheries working within the limits of the marine ecosystem, preserving marine resources as well as their habitats.
We are a Sweden-based NGO founded in 2003 by three environmental organisations: The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation, WWF Sweden and the Swedish Angler’s Association.
FishSec is recruiting a team member to lead our Baltic Sea projects and work with the implementation of the EU Common Fisheries Policy (CFP), focusing on regionalisation and fisheries management in the Baltic Sea. Work tasks include analysing scientific advice and policy proposals, writing policy briefs, as well as extensive contact with other relevant stakeholders.
The Policy Officer will carry out fisheries and environmental policy analysis to support the wider NGO community. We are looking for a knowledgeable and experienced individual, with a strong analytical background, to be a part of our small team of experts (2–3 people). The successful candidate will deliver upon international projects with many stakeholders involved, as well as take part in other projects and tasks within the organisation.
At FishSec, we work in an international environment with partners all across Europe, engaging with decision-makers, civil servants, NGOs, scientists and the fishing sector. We advocate and build stakeholder alliances to ensure sustainable ecosystem-based fisheries, and a thriving marine environment.
