Dear MARMAM Community, The Makah Tribe is looking to hire a Marine Mammal Technician. The position is grant funded and is posted as temporary for the next year, but is likely to be extended further. We are looking for an applicant who will commit to working at least one year. The applicant needs to be okay with a lot of rain, lousy pay, and living in a remote location in Washington (it is over 70 miles to the nearest movie theatre and 50 miles to the nearest stoplight). On the plus side, the technician will gain experience doing marine mammal surveys; capture and tagging of salmon; field technique skills like boat operations, photo-id, prey sampling, fecal sampling; monitoring acoustic and popup tags; and writing experience in helping to write grant reports, and hopefully peer-reviewed manuscripts and grant applications. The experience the technician will gain will help them grow in their career. Application material and the job description can be found at Makah Tribe Jobs in Neah Bay <https://makah.com/makah-tribal-info/employment/> Applicants are strongly encouraged to provide their CV as well; all applicants must provide a fully completed application and will be removed from consideration if they do not. Please send the application material and CV to hr@makah.com. I encourage you to cc me as well ( jonathan.scordino@makah.com) with your application material so I can ensure your application is reviewed. Please share this announcement with others you think would enjoy doing this job and with whom I would enjoy working. Please email me if you have any questions. Respectfully, Jonathan Scordino Marine Mammal Biologist Makah Fisheries Management (360) 645-3176
