Desired qualifications of the applicant: • graduated in biology or related science (Diploma or Master); • working experience (or PhD) in zoology, marine biology, biological consultancy or a closely related field; • profound knowledge in statistical analyses (preferred R); • special skills in databank management; • experience in autonomous / self-dependent scientific work; • good knowledge about marine mammals, seabirds and marine biology; • strong writing and communication skills; • good English skills (good skills in German or willingness to learn); • ability to work in a team. BioConsult SH is located in Husum, North-Germany. We are a team consisting of >25 biologist and landscape ecologists, with long-term experience in ecological research. The roots of both our personal interests and our work are within ecological research and conservation.
