We are looking for an engaged **Community & Family Forests Officer** who brings solid expertise and a passion for FSC’s mission, to work with us in a multinational environment.

**The Scope**

**About Performance and Standards Unit (PSU)**

PSU is the unit in FSC responsible for setting requirements for responsible forest management all over the world. While cornerstone rules are set internationally, many of FSC requirements need local adaptation, resulting in various normative documents produced that are applicable for a given country or region.

**About Community & Family Forests (CFF) Program**

The CFF program is a core program in PSU established to make FSC system more attractive and relevant to small-scale, low intensity and community managed forests. These forests have specific characteristics, such as land size, ownership or internal governance that require tailor made approaches. Finding globally consistent and locally adaptable policy solutions, as well as business or market related tools is our goal.

Our program works on overcoming barriers and challenges faced by these groups, for which we have created an encompassing toolbox aimed towards increasing uptake of FSC certification and scaling up the benefit for these stewards. This includes dedicated normative requirements and more.
