A LITTLE ABOUT US
Founded in 1951, the Nature Conservancy is a global conservation organization dedicated to conserving the lands and waters on which all life depends. Guided by science, we create innovative, on-the-ground solutions to our world's toughest challenges so that nature and people can thrive together. We are tackling climate change, and conserving lands, waters and oceans at unprecedented scale, providing food and water sustainably and helping make cities more sustainable. One of our core values is our commitment to diversity. Therefore, we strive for a globally diverse and culturally competent workforce. Working in 79 countries, including all 50 United States, we use a collaborative approach that engages local communities, governments, the private sector, and other partners. To learn more, visit www.nature.org or follow @nature_press on Twitter.
The Nature Conservancy Africa program follows a holistic approach to protect vital lands and waters, transform the way natural resources are used and managed and inspire to equip others to contribute to the shared vision of a healthy and sustainable future for Africa’s lands, waters, wildlife and people. We use a collaborative approach that engages local communities, governments, the private sector, and other partners.
The Nature Conservancy recently set its 2030 organizational outcomes and identified 4 pilot focal places or areas for deeper engagement. Focal places are globally significant for their potential contribution towards both biodiversity and carbon. This makes these places excellent testing grounds for new ways of thinking and working that facilitate accelerated impact. The Africa Region identified Kenya as a focal place in part because we have an opportunity to achieve tangible and lasting conservation wins by working with the Government of Kenya to support their commitment of 30% protected land by 2030. We will work with the Government of Kenya to define what this commitment means, where new areas would be (land and water) to increase from the current 21%, and costs to ensure strong implementation
YOUR POSITION WITH TNC

Working with project teams, they will define the annual expenses needed to maintain strong conservation management and design a blended revenue model to meet that need. They will work closely with TNC and other stakeholders in the landscape to define what sustainable and durable financing solutions exist or could be created for tangible lasting outcomes. Landscapes may include northern Kenya, Northern Tanzania, Western Zambia, and others.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS

The role will support this critical planning phase in collaboration with the Kenya Focal Place Manager, Kenya Country Director and Kenya Conservation Trust Fund Coordinator to assess total annual financial need and current revenue, then strategize how to close any gap in resources (via endowment, debt restructure, etc. for example) to accomplish this and other TNC Africa conservation goals.
The Africa Sustainable Finance Analyst will collaborate with TNC Worldwide Office teams, Africa Regional staff, Conservancy senior management, and partner organizations to bring sophisticated business, financial, and economic analysis and expertise to the design and implementation of the Conservancy’s sustainable finance needs in our priority landscapes.
