## **We rebuild tropical fisheries with coastal communities**

Blue Ventures is a marine conservation organisation that puts people first. We support coastal fishers in remote and rural communities to rebuild fisheries, restore ocean life, and build lasting pathways to prosperity. Our work began two decades ago in Madagascar’s remote coastal communities and is growing globally. Across a dozen countries, we’re partnering with traditional fishers and community organisations to design, scale, strengthen, and sustain fisheries management and conservation at the community level. We bring partners together in networks to advocate for reform and share tools and best practices to support fishing communities across the globe.

## **Summary job description**

The Director of Community Learning is a pivotal senior leadership role accountable for ensuring Blue Ventures’ global community training content is strategic, technically excellent and ready to scale—supporting partners and communities to deliver high-impact, rights-based marine conservation and small-scale fisheries outcomes.

Working closely with the Training and Learning team and collaborating across regional and country programmes, the Director provides technical leadership for BV’s digital learning platform and broader training offer. The role leads the development and stewardship of technical frameworks, guidance and curricula across BV’s programme pillars—Community-Based Fisheries Management, Secure Rights, Food Security, and Financial Inclusion—ensuring content is evidence-informed, grounded in lived community experience, and aligned with organisational standards (including safeguarding and DEI). The Director line-manages a multidisciplinary team of subject-matter experts, drives quality assurance, and ensures that learning products are coherent, engaging, and practically usable in real-world delivery contexts. This is a replacement.
