The Asian Species Action Partnership (ASAP) ASAP is an inter-institutional Partnership convened by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Species Survival Commission (SSC), which focuses attention on a region that, without more serious conservation intervention, will see the demise of much of its unique diversity. ASAP was established to address the extinction risk among the most threatened land and freshwater vertebrates of Southeast Asia.
We are seeking a self-driven and motivated individual to coordinate Partnerships and Communications for the ASAP Partnership. The position will develop and build the current ASAP Partner network and lead on developing and implementing a wider Partnership strategy and will involve engagement with zoos and aquaria, conservation organisations and funding bodies among others.

He or she will also lead on ASAP communications and branding and must have experience developing and implementing communication strategies with the ability to transform technical information into compelling and engaging stories. The successful candidate will be expected to liaise with diverse stakeholders across the global conservation community and beyond and thus needs excellent communication and relationship skills.
