JOB OVERVIEW

Our Journey

The organisation was founded in 2000 in response to the dramatic decline of protected areas due to poor management and lack of funding. We have a clear business approach to conserving Africa’s wildlife and remaining wild areas. We currently manage 23 national parks and protected areas in 13 countries covering over 20 million hectares.

Our Organisation

African Parks has more than 5700 employees all of whom are conservationists in their own right. We operate in dynamic and ever-changing environments, and our work demands resilience, adaptability, and a deep respect for nature in order to ensure the African Parks Model is functioning optimally. Learn more about our model here

Our Technology

AP has a variety of different systems that are interconnected. The complexity comes not just with the different types of systems but the different operating models and environmental challenges of offline systems (due to intermitted/ poor connectivity from the parks).This results in a hybrid-hosted model of systems, security and accessibility. Furthermore, the master-data management for the system of systems becoming challenging due to the input source of information based on offline sources of data.

Why you should join our team

African Parks is developing an innovative solution that would enable decision making based on data from its ecological, social, financial and management systems brought together in a single environment. The enterprise architect role offers the opportunity to be an instrumental part in making this system a reality and thereby push the frontiers of big data-driven decision making in the conservation space. Your work will end up allowing a park manager to understand, in one environment, not only how land cover and species distribution in a protected area is changing, but also how those trends may relate to the community projects, security effort and deployment capabilities of the site. 

You will be part of a small team trying to build something that hasn't been built before within the conservation space. You will be ensuring that data from different systems, devices and sensors all come together into a single dataset. Given the novelty of the intended end-product and the wide array of systems, sensors and devices you will need to interact with, the role requires somebody who is solution-oriented and has proven ability to familiarize and upskill themselves on how the technology works and how to get this data structured into our data warehousing for big data analytics. While you're in the weeds writing the codes, building the data pipelines and configuring the systems, you are able to keep an eye on how the data needs to be consolidated with that from other sources, and how it may be influencing decision making for better conservation outcomes. 

African Parks manages large conservation areas in some of the most remote places in Africa, and we use many technology tools to assist with this. Whether it is knowing the location of a single lion in South Sudan or knowing where rangers have spent time patrolling for illegal activities. We aim to base decisions on accurate information from all over.  The conservation technology department uses technology to gather information and assist on-the-ground teams to better manage conservation areas. We are responsible for all communications, ranging from the internet at head office to hand held radios to satellite emergency communications. We look at the message from the starting point deep in the parks, all the way through to where it is being used operationally on EarthRanger in a control room or on a report produced for management.

The conservation technology aspect

Looking for purpose, growth, and a bit of adventure? At African Parks is at the heart of transforming conservation across Africa through innovative technology and data-driven solutions. The Enterprise Architect role offers a rare chance to design and implement scalable systems that improve how protected areas are managed, enhance collaboration and optimize operational efficiency. You’ll work with cutting-edge tools and technologies, partnering across teams to align Technology strategy with our bold conservation mission. Beyond shaping the technical landscape, this role supports continuous learning and professional growth in a fast-paced, purpose-driven environment. If you’re ready to apply your expertise where it truly matters, African Parks offers a career that combines innovation, impact, and meaningful adventure.
