The New Zealand Government, through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT), is partnering with the Government of Tuvalu to strengthen the management of Tuvalu’s fisheries resources. As part of this, MFAT and the Tuvalu Fisheries Authority (TFA) are seeking a Tuvalu Inshore Fisheries Adviser (IFA) to provide specialist technical assistance and capacity development support to the TFA’s Coastal Fisheries Section.
 
This role will be contracted directly to MFAT and will work closely with the TFA Managing Director and Principal Fisheries Officer (Coastal). The IFA will play a critical role in supporting the implementation of the TFA Corporate Plan 2026–2028 and the Tuvalu Fisheries Support Programme Phase 3 (TFSP3), with a focus on inshore and community-based fisheries management.
              
The initial assignment will be part time (approximately 120 working days per year) for three years, with potential extensions subject to performance review. The role will commence in February 2026 and is ideally based in Funafuti, though remote working with extended in-country visits can be negotiated.
This role is ideal for an experienced technical adviser with a strong background in coastal and community-based fisheries management, and a commitment to supporting sustainable livelihoods in the Pacific. If you are proactive, culturally aware, and passionate about mentoring and building capacity within fisheries institutions and communities, we encourage you to apply.
This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to sustainable coastal fisheries management in Tuvalu, supporting livelihoods, food security, and community resilience. 
Closing date for applications: 5:00pm (NZ Time) on Monday 17 November 2025.
