Project Manager Agriculture and Biodiversity Policy 80-100%
Your task
Agriculture, biodiversity, and water policy face great challenges - and new opportunities. Will long-blocked debates change thanks to heat and drought, PFAS/TFA, the decline of pollinators, and new findings from research and innovation?
As a Project Manager, you analyze technical and political developments and work with our partners to develop strategies to effectively bring their concerns into the political debate. In doing so, you move confidently at the interfaces between science, administration, politics, and practice.
What you do with us
• You develop, plan, and manage political strategies, lobbying activities, and campaigns - from the idea to implementation and evaluation
• You prepare complex contexts for political interventions and media work in an understandable way and introduce them at the appropriate place
• You maintain and expand relationships with relevant actors and bring together different interests and perspectives
• You are responsible for your own projects and work closely with our team and our partners
What you bring
• You have a university degree in biology, agricultural sciences, or a related field. Other technical backgrounds are also welcome if you bring knowledge in agriculture, biodiversity, or water issues
• You have professional experience in a relevant environment - such as in political consulting, administration, science, or a civil society organization
• You work independently, in a structured and solution-oriented manner, and maintain an overview even with parallel projects
• You have very good German and French skills in spoken and written form
What we offer you
• An exciting activity at the pulse of agriculture, biodiversity, and water policy, where technical depth, political thinking, and meaningfulness come together
• A lot of personal responsibility and creative freedom in a committed team
• The opportunity to initiate and concretely help shape political changes
• A workplace within walking distance of the Bundeshaus as well as cooperation with a small team and in a broad network of relationships into politics, administration, science, economy, and civil society
Interested? Then we look forward to meeting you! Send us your application with the usual documents. We look forward to learning why you want to commit to agriculture, biodiversity, and water policy and what you want to achieve with us at Politikwerkstatt.
