The People & Ecosystems Program at the World Resources Institute (WRI) is seeking a results-oriented Senior Associate to develop, lead, and grow new WRI efforts to implement innovative approaches for financing ecosystem conservation/restoration for the sake of improving human well being.
The Senior Associate will begin by managing a multi-year project to identify, develop, and pilot test a portfolio of incentives designed to conserve forests in the southern United States. Over time, s/he will be responsible for launching additional projects that create novel approaches for aligning economic incentives with ecosystem stewardship. The Senior Associate will have the latitude to develop projects in other regions or countries. The ideal candidate has expertise in conservation finance and policy as applied to forest ecosystems. The candidate needs to have a minimum 8 years of relevant experience.
The Senior Associate will be part of WRI’s Mainstreaming Ecosystem Services Initiative, which seeks to reduce ecosystem degradation by helping governments, businesses, and development agencies integrate ecosystem services into their policies, strategies, and investments. The initiative’s strategy is two-fold:
1) Provide decision-makers with information and assessment tools that link ecosystem health with the attainment of economic and social goals; and
2) Develop new markets, economic incentives, and public policies that restore and sustain ecosystems.
