Postdoctoral Research Fellow - Vertebrate Ecology (Ref: N2073)
Salary: £26,391 per annum
Fixed term contract for two and a half years
A postdoctoral research fellow is sought to carry out research on marine
vertebrates in waters of the western English Channel as part of the EU INTERREG
funded Channel Habitat Atlas for Marine Resource Management. Work will be
carried out in conjunction with that already underway as part of the South West
Regional Development Agency funded Penninsula Research Institute for Marine
Renewable Energy based around the establishment of the WaveHub, an offshore
wave energy generating facility in the waters off North Cornwall. This new
full-time post is available from 1 June 2009 on a fixed term basis for two and
a half years.
Based at the University of Exeter, Cornwall Campus, the Research Fellow will
lead research on cetaceans, seabirds, seals and basking sharks. Work will be
carried out under the supervision of Drs Brendan Godley, Stuart Bearhop,
Annette Broderick and Matthew Witt, but the successful candidate will also
liaise closely with other staff from a range of institutions in the UK and
France.
The successful candidate will have a clearly established track record of
publishing in peer reviewed ecological journals and will preferably have
demonstrable project management and fund-raising skills. An ability to work
both independently and within a team is essential. Applicants should also have
marine vertebrate ID skills, experience in advanced statistics and modelling
and be able to drive. Additional skills that would be advantageous include:
ability of use GPS and GIS to record and analyse biological date; experience of
ECOPATH and ECOSIM, remote cetacean monitoring and distance sampling; an
ability to handle boats, and speak French..
Salary will be £26,391 pa.
Please use "Ref: N2073" as subject line for all correspondence
