We are looking for an Oceanographer to join our multidisciplinary research team focused on understanding and preserving marine environments. As an Oceanographer, you will study the physical, chemical, biological, and geological aspects of the ocean. Your work will contribute to a deeper understanding of ocean currents, marine ecosystems, and the impact of climate change on the seas. You will be responsible for conducting field research, collecting and analyzing oceanographic data, and developing models to predict ocean behavior. This role requires a strong foundation in scientific research methods, data analysis, and a passion for marine science. You will collaborate with other scientists, government agencies, and environmental organizations to support sustainable ocean management and policy development. The ideal candidate will have experience working with oceanographic instruments such as CTDs, ADCPs, and remote sensing tools. You should be comfortable working in challenging environments, including extended periods at sea. Strong communication skills are essential, as you will be expected to present findings in scientific journals, conferences, and public forums. This position offers the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on marine conservation and to contribute to global efforts in understanding climate change and its effects on the ocean. If you are passionate about the ocean and committed to scientific excellence, we encourage you to apply.
