Illegal wildlife trade is a vast, international, and multi-billion-dollar commercial enterprise. Across Indonesia, key species including tiger, rhino, elephant, orangutan, birds, bears, orchids, fish, turtles, pangolins, coral, snakes, sharks and more are being taken and traded in large volumes and at unsustainable levels
While Indonesia has a legal framework that supports the control of wildlife trade, yet its effective implementation has many barriers. WCS aims to support the removal of these barriers, and to remove the threat to Indonesian biodiversity caused by both the legal and illegal over-exploitation of wild animals and plants.The Training Specialist will support the Wildlife Trade Program (WTP) by coordinating and assisting the Deputy Program Manager with the planning and implementation of the WTP training activities throughout target landscapes and seascapes in Indonesia. The full scope of work will involve coordinating government partner trainings, including training needs assessments, training module development, Training of Trainers (ToT), training delivery, monitoring and analysis of training impacts, report writing and future planning of training events, based on partner needs. The position will therefore require close liaison with the Indonesian government partnering agencies and excellent coordination and communication skills. A key part of the ToR will be to develop institutional sustainability by developing training modules within a syllabus that receives accreditation by the partnering government agencies and is therefore fully incorporated within their annual work plan and budget.
