Hello all, NOAA’s Northeast Fisheries Science Center is recruiting a Supervisory Research Fishery Biologist or Ecologist to lead the Protected Species Branch in Woods Hole, MA. The job opportunity is now open online at USAJOBS (http://www.usajobs.gov/GetJob/ViewDetails/418008700) from 9 – 23 October.
The Protected Species Branch is a group of very experienced and talented field biologists and analysts focused on marine mammal and sea turtle conservation (see http://www.nefsc.noaa.gov/psb/). In the near future, the Branch is likely to expand its research efforts to include work on endangered and threatened fish, through incorporation of the Center’s Atlantic Salmon Research and Conservation Task (see http://www.nefsc.noaa.gov/salmon/). The Center’s marine mammal, sea turtle, and salmon scientists work on some of the most endangered marine species (Atlantic salmon and North Atlantic right whales); use cutting edge technologies and transform them to operational research and monitoring tools; lead regional and national research programs; and collaborate with a large array of federal, state, tribal, academic, industry, and non-governmental organizations. This is an exciting time and place to work on protected marine species. The Branch Chief who oversees this work is a critical position for the Center, and we hope to attract a strong applicant pool. -- Mike Simpkins, Ph.D. Chief, Resource Evaluation and Assessment Division Northeast Fisheries Science Center, NOAA/NMFS 166 Water Street, Woods Hole, MA 02543 Phone: 508-495-2358 Fax: 508-495-2032 _______________________________________________ MARMAM mailing list MARMAM@lists.uvic.ca https://lists.uvic.ca/mailman/listinfo/marmam
