TITLE: Senior Associate, Communications
REPORTS TO: Communications Director
DEPARTMENT: Communications Department
CLASSIFICATION: Permanent, Full-Time
OVERVIEW:
A resilient, net zero and economically secure world is not possible without a healthy,
regenerating ocean. The Ocean, one of the planet’s greatest assets, is in crisis. Heating,
leading to extreme weather events, sea level rise, and adverse ecosystem changes as well as
pollution, overfishing and destructive fishing, rising levels of acidity and biodiversity loss
all jeopardise its health. Rebuilding and restoring ‘blue nature’ means protecting the critical
impact buffers and biodiversity reservoirs that provide food, social and economic security to
billions of people and businesses across the world.
Immediate and scaled action is needed to build resilience to change. The Ocean Risk and
Resilience Action Alliance (ORRAA) is the only not-for profit multi-sector collaboration
connecting the international finance and insurance sectors, governments, civil society, and
stakeholders from the Global South to pioneer finance products that incentivise investment into
coastal and ocean Nature-based Solutions (NBS). Our goal, by 2030, is to activate at least
USD$500million of investment into this space, and in so doing, help build the resilience of at
least 250 million climate vulnerable coastal people.
The heart of ORRAA’s mission is focused on building the resilience and adaptive capacity of
marine and coastal ecosystems and the coastal communities around the world that rely on them.
We do this by driving investment into ocean and coastal NBS, as well as through the mitigation
of risk multipliers like overfishing and pollution. These solutions will enable the Ocean and
the communities which depend on it to thrive, creating greater economic security as well as
social and cultural resilience for climate vulnerable coastal communities.
