OCTOBER START DATE
The Scottish Government is preparing for the implementation of a new HR and Finance platform and, as a result, some job offers will be subject to an October 2024 start date at the earliest.� This will be confirmed as your application progresses.
The Marine Directorate of the Scottish Government are recruiting for a Marine Renewables Diadromous Fish Scientist. We are looking for someone who has practical skills to help carry out programmes of scientific research in Scottish seas. You will use evidence-based science to inform policy and decision making relating to renewable energy developments. There will also be the opportunity to go to sea to participate in diadromous fish acoustic monitoring surveys on board Marine Directorate research vessels.
This is a permanent post for a scientist to join our team and help us to improve the evidence base required for the sustainable development of offshore wind in Scotland, through the delivery of diadromous fish research projects.
