ORCA are pleased to announce that we are now recruiting for two North Sea Wildlife Officers for the 2018 season.


Wildlife Officers live and work on board the DFDS King Seaways passenger ferry, sailing from Newcastle (U.K.) to Ijmuiden (The Netherlands), collecting vital data on cetaceans and other marine wildlife sighted, whilst also showcasing the wildlife to passengers out on deck.  Wildlife Officers enthuse passengers of all ages about the incredible marine wildlife around them on their ferry journey on the on board Wildlife Centre, where presentations, children's activities and lecture are held.  Due to the passenger demographic on board, we are looking for at least one Wildlife Officer who can speak English and Dutch fluently (German language skills would also be an advantage). 

These exciting roles provide the opportunity to contribute to one of ORCA’s core work areas and champion North Sea marine wildlife to the public.
