Key responsibilities include leading the design and execution of Oceana’s campaigns in Ghana, driving strategic advocacy efforts, and delivering measurable policy and conservation outcomes. The Campaigns & Advocacy Director will develop and implement high-impact campaigns, engage key stakeholders and decision-makers, and ensure alignment across advocacy, communications, outreach, and science teams. This role will also serve as a spokesperson, oversee campaign budgets and materials, and lead and develop a high-performing campaigns team.
