The Ecological Data Manager (EDM) is responsible for managing the collection and analysis of biological data from Mwambao field activities, including fisheries catch data (reef fish and octopus), subtidal reef and seagrass survey data, and mangrove monitoring data.

They must become familiar with current Mwambao methodologies for ecological surveys, and be able to design and review best practices and literature to design new methods where possible.

The EDM will work with field teams to ensure appropriate protocols are used in collecting data, ensure data is entered promptly in Mwambao databases, provide quality control of data, and conduct data analysis and graphing for donor and stakeholder reports.

The EDM will build capacity of both coastal communities and Mwambao staff in ecological data collection.

The EDM will participate in and/or lead ecological and fisheries surveys and community data sharing sessions across Unguja, Pemba, and Tanga.
