Blue Marine's Mission

Blue Marine Foundation seeks to protect and restore life in the ocean. Our mission is to see at least 30 per cent of the ocean protected by 2030 and the whole ocean sustainably managed.

  • Maintain an agreement register for project contracts, agreements and licences.
  • Maintain organised digital filing systems and clear documentation pathways for internal and external users.
  • Developing and managing compliance checklists to help ensure grant and funder requirements are met in relation to reporting, communications, branding and evidence collection.
  • Manage the project email inbox and responding to general enquiries.

  • Supporting the development of reports and updates for the funders
  • Tracking project progress against committed deliverables and milestones
  • Coordinating partner invoicing and financial reporting.
Team contribution
