The four Gulf of Mexico Sea Grant College Programs have released this announcement for a three-year, limited-term position that supports an oil spill science outreach program.
Candidates must be able to serve as a science editor and writer; lead the production and printing of publications; manage and lead the oil spill team’s electronic-based communications; promote team activities; provide technical support at seminars and events; and perform other duties as assigned. The annual salary range is $45,000-$60,000, depending on qualifications and experience.
This unique opportunity includes working with a motivated team of oil spill science outreach professionals and travel throughout the Gulf of Mexico and beyond. The oil spill science outreach program focuses on the two-way transfer of information between (1) the people whose livelihoods depend on a healthy Gulf of Mexico or who are involved in the protection and management of Gulf of Mexico coastal and marine resources; and (2) Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative supported scientists and administrators.
The position is hosted at the Mississippi-Alabama Sea Grant Consortium and will serve all four Gulf of Mexico Sea Grant College Programs. The position is funded by a three-year grant with the potential for continuation based on performance and the additional allocation of funds by the granting entity.
Only complete application packages will be considered.
