This is a new and important opportunity to join our in-house consultancy which advises and assists member countries with the development of natural resources and management of ocean space and resources.
In delivering advisory assistance under the maritime boundaries programme, you will manage a portfolio of projects individually and as part of a multidisciplinary team concerning the negotiation and settlement of maritime boundaries, preparation and defence of extended continental shelf claims, and matters associated with the management of ocean space, including the foundations for the development of offshore oil, gas, minerals and living maritime resources.
This will involve the provision of strategic, policy and legal advice and assistance to Commonwealth member countries under regional and country-specific project and will therefore require project management, reporting and monitoring, coupled with the leadership of multi-disciplinary advisory teams, the development of partnerships and initiatives and participation in seminars, conferences and expert group meetings.
Your graduate law degree, specialising in law of the sea or public international law, will have been followed by at least five years’ senior-level law practice, with a focus on public international law. Practical experience in maritime boundary delimitation would be highly desirable.
We are the inter-governmental body of the Commonwealth, comprising 53 independent sovereign states. Our aim is to provide sustainable and people-centred development through professional advice, transfer of best practice and the enhancement of skills and knowledge. This is an exciting time to join us. Demand-driven, we recently refocused our priorities, creating this, and other, outstanding opportunities to make a tangible improvement to the wellbeing of 2.2 billion citizens, 60% of whom are under 30 years of age, while taking a significant step in your own professional and career development.
To be considered, you must be a citizen of a Commonwealth country.
Deadline for applications is 17:00 GMT on Sunday 16 November 2014
