[MARMAM] WDC Conservation Outreach Internship (temporary, full-time, paid)

2022-01-17 Thread Monica Pepe
Whale and Dolphin Conservation's North American office is excited to offer a 
12-week Conservation Outreach Internship to entry-level candidates interested 
in marine conservation. This opportunity will provide interns with transferable 
job skills and insight to the inner workings of a non-profit focused on the 
conservation of marine mammals.

This position is best suited for those who may not yet have practical 
experience in this field. Applicants should be eager to dive into new 
experiences and enjoy having a variety of tasks to work on. The primary 
responsibilities of this role focus on the implementation of WDC's boater 
outreach programs (See A 
Spout<https://us.whales.org/whales-dolphins/science/see-a-spout-for-recreational-boaters/>,
 Whale 
SENSE<https://us.whales.org/whales-dolphins/science/whale-sense-responsible-whale-watching/>,
 Sharing the 
Seas<https://us.whales.org/whales-dolphins/science/sharing-the-seas-safe-boating-for-sailors/>)
 Interns will build a strong set of skills working on components of these 
programs related to public outreach, including social media strategies, 
highlighting best practices, and communicating with stakeholders and project 
partners, while helping to track program budgets and fund allocations. 
Occasional opportunities to see whales at sea may also be possible, though no 
part of this position requires being in the water.

Upon completion of the internship, candidates will gain experience in:

* Effective communication with a variety of audiences

* Project and resource management

* Day-to-day operations of a non-profit

* How to engage with stakeholders

* Program implementation and monitoring

* Using a variety of platforms for outreach, including Canva, 
WordPress, and Facebook


Logistics

We have one open position in 2022 for this temporary, full-time internship, 
which is available as early as May. We will consider both in-person and remote 
candidates to fill this role, which is a desk-based position. Regardless of 
whether in-person or remote, candidates must be able to demonstrate that they 
are legally eligible to work in the U.S. by the proposed starting date. If the 
internship will be in-person, successful candidates will need to make their own 
arrangements, as needed, for housing and transportation to and from the WDC 
office in Plymouth, MA, USA. Remote interns will need access to a computer and 
reliable internet access for the duration of the internship, and be available 
to work the majority of the time between the hours of 9am-5pm EDT.

Successful candidates are expected to work 40 hours a week for the 12 week 
period of the program; they will be compensated at a rate of $15/hour and a sum 
not to exceed $7,200 over the course of the 12 weeks.

Applicants must be 18 years or older and fluent in English. WDC will assist 
interested students in obtaining credits for the program through their college 
or university.

Diverse candidates are strongly encouraged to apply for this position. Whale 
and Dolphin Conservation embraces diversity and equal opportunity. We recognize 
that the field of marine mammal research and conservation lacks diversity, 
including within our own organization. WDC is dedicated to creating inclusive 
opportunities which represent diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and skills.

[MARMAM] WDC North America Science and Conservation Internships

2021-03-08 Thread Monica Pepe
In an effort to make the marine mammal conservation field accessible to all, 
Whale and Dolphin Conservation’s North American office is excited to offer two 
new internship opportunities for 2021. These internships are introductory and 
best suited for anyone who is considering a career in marine conservation but 
doesn’t yet have practical experience. Full details on both positions and 
application instructions can be found on our website at http://bit.ly/2Sr8SQi

Part-time science internships: Interns will gain transferable skills that are 
applicable to a wide range of scientific studies, regardless of the study 
subject, including protocols associated with field data collection, species and 
individual identification, and data processing. As a part-time internship, this 
position was specifically designed to allow interns the option to hold a paying 
job outside of their internship. Fieldwork (pending COVID-19 restrictions) will 
be based out of our office in Plymouth, MA. The deadline to apply is March 14th.

Full-time conservation internships: This opportunity will provide interns with 
transferable job skills and insight to the inner workings of a non-profit 
focused on the conservation of marine mammals. Interns will build a strong set 
of skills working on projects related to public outreach (including formal and 
informal education), communications, and fundraising. This is a seasonal, 
temporary position for 2021. Because these positions are paid, candidates must 
be able to demonstrate that they are legally eligible to work in the U.S. We 
will consider both in-person and remote candidates for the two available 
positions. The deadline to apply is March 31st.

Diverse candidates are strongly encouraged to apply for both of these 
positions. Whale and Dolphin Conservation embraces diversity and equal 
opportunity. We recognize that the field of marine mammal research and 
conservation lacks diversity, including within our own organization. WDC is 
dedicated to creating inclusive opportunities which represent diverse 
backgrounds, perspectives, and skills.

[MARMAM] Fall internships - Whale and Dolphin Conservation, North America

2019-06-14 Thread Monica Pepe
WDC North America (NA), located in Plymouth, Massachusetts, offers internships 
and field volunteer positions providing research, policy, education, and 
advocacy experience in working for an international non-profit organization. We 
are currently seeking applicants to fill 1-2 positions for the fall 2019 
season, beginning as early as August 1st. The deadline to apply is Tuesday, 
July 2nd at 11:59PM EDT.

The WDC internship/volunteer program aims to help participants hone their 
outreach and data collection and organization skills, while also gaining an 
introduction to all aspects of working with a conservation non-profit 
organization. Successful candidates are included in everything from field 
research to office administration. All interns gain experience with public 
speaking by interacting with passengers aboard whale watching vessels and 
participating in school talks and other public outreach events throughout the 
year. Additionally, interns will assist with written communication efforts 
including social media, blogs, and supporter directed communications. Other 
potential opportunities include attending workshops/conferences and responding 
to stranded marine mammals, though these are not guaranteed opportunities. This 
program exposes interns to real world experiences that will help them develop 
the skills and understanding needed to succeed in the field of marine mammal 
conservation and research. Participants will gain an in-depth perspective of 
this field and a better understanding of where their interests lie. Through 
this internship, a number of skills are developed including analytical, 
organizational, interpersonal, and communication skills.

As part of the field work experience, interns will learn species 
identification, behavioral sequencing, data collection, and photo 
identification research techniques on marine mammals in the southern Gulf of 
Maine.  They will also have the opportunity to go out on commercial whale 
watching boats several times per week (field season is April - October) to 
photograph and record sightings of humpback, finback, and minke whales, as well 
as other notable marine wildlife. The frequency of fieldwork is weather 
dependent. Days in the office will be spent uploading photos and data into our 
photo identification database or working on any tasks that may be assigned.

There is no fee or compensation for the internship/volunteer positions. 
Participants must arrange for their own transportation to and from Plymouth and 
provide their own food. Limited housing with a shared bedroom is available on 
site for a monthly fee of $300 USD, which is strictly to offset the cost of 
housing. Assistance can be provided in finding alternate housing at the request 
of the applicant, and those that can provide their own housing are encouraged 
to apply.

WDC is willing to help qualified students obtain credits for the program 
through their college or university. The program requires a minimum commitment 
of 12 weeks, with the possibility of extending the term on a case-by-case 
basis. The internship is a full time position requiring open and flexible 
availability. Applicants should make sure they clearly indicate their 
availability (specific dates, if possible) in their cover letter.  
International applicants interested in the internship program must be able to 
secure their own travel Visa and other required documentation.

Candidate Requirements

* Fluency in English.

* Must be 18 years or older (preference given to students matriculated 
in or recently graduated from appropriate graduate or undergraduate degree 
programs.)

* Be able to show proof of valid health insurance.

* Act effectively as a member of a close-knit team.

* Capable of spending long days in an office environment.

* Ability to work on sea going vessels for long hours that may require 
physical labor.

* Willing to work in adverse weather conditions

* Good computer skills - familiarity with operating PCs.

* Excellent verbal and written communications skills.

* Ability to function well under pressure.

* Must be comfortable speaking in front of groups of people of all 
walks of life
