SECRETARIAT OF THE PACIFIC COMMUNITY

DUTY STATEMENT

AQUACULTURE ADVISER

The Secretariat of the Pacific Community (SPC) is an independent intergovernmental agency providing technical advice, assistance, training and research in the service of the 22 Pacific Island countries and territories of Melanesia, Micronesia and Polynesia. It currently has a staff of more than 230. SPC is officially bilingual, with English and French being the working languages.

The Coastal Fisheries Programme (CFP) makes up half of the SPC's Marine Resources Division, with a current staff complement of 25. Its mission is: "To provide a regional support service that assists Pacific Islanders in identifying the status, and optimising the long-term social and economic value, of small-scale fisheries and aquatic resource use in Pacific Island waters."

.
The Aquaculture Adviser will manage the new SPC aquaculture programme. The broad aim of SPC in this initiative is not to set up just another Pacific Island aquaculture development project, but to provide support and information to governments, investment authorities and the private sector in planning aquaculture activities that are both economically and environmentally sustainable - information to enable the assessment of realistic prospects, to avoid the pitfalls of the past, and to take into account the experiences of other island countries.

The Aquaculture Adviser will manage the work program of the Aquaculture Section and will be responsible directly to the Director of Marine Resources but will also maintain close working relationships with other organisations collaborating in the Pacific Islands Regional Aquaculture Strategy and other SPC Coastal Fisheries Sections.

The post requires a self-starter with considerable initiative, accustomed to working in new situations in new countries and comfortable collaborating with people from all levels of Pacific Island society, from the community to the senior government level.

DUTIES

1. Maintain a regional network of contacts as a means of exchanging ideas, knowledge and experience on Pacific Island aquaculture issues including:
   

• developing information sources for a new SPC Aquaculture Special Interest Group News Bulletin; and
• establishing a regional information base of aquaculture activity in SPC member countries and territories, covering enterprises, government activities, aquacultured species, relevant legislation, and production;
  

2.????? Maintain collaborative working partnerships with other agencies, including other Council of Regional Organisations in the Pacific (CROP) agencies, and the International Center for Living Aquatic Resources Management (ICLARM);

3.????? Advise and assist Pacific Island government departments and private sector operators, as appropriate, in the establishment of environmentally and economically sustainable aquaculture, including:

• assisting Pacific Island governments and private sector to assess aquaculture investment proposals and projects; and
• assisting Pacific Island governments and communities to draw up practical plans, policies or regulations governing aquaculture;
  
  

SPC/Recruitment Notice No. 01/10

4.????? Based on this fieldwork in member countries and territories, and other reports and contacts, collect and compile existing and new information on aquaculture activities, and produce reviews and reports for the benefit of local, national, regional and international planning processes;

5.????? Under the supervision of the Director of Marine Resources, manage expenditure and activities addressing the aims of current projects implemented in partnership with national and international funding agencies and foundations, and continue to develop new project proposals in order to address future objectives of the section, according to the mandate and guidance provided by SPC member governments and administrations.
