Seize this great opportunity to join a forward thinking and rapidly growing organisation and make a positive impact on global fisheries conservation. Lend your fisheries expertise to MSC’s mission of helping transform global fisheries through its leading international certification and eco-labelling program for well-managed and sustainable fisheries – a program distinguished by high scientific standards, independence, transparency, stakeholder engagement and comprehensive consistency with FAO guidelines.
MSC’s Fishery Assessment Managers play essential roles in achieving the MSC mission by carefully reviewing fishery assessments conducted around the world by independent, third party evaluation teams. By this review process, the fisheries team contributes to the quality, consistency and credibility of fishery certification decisions. Team members are also involved in managing special projects to help evaluate and improve the performance and rigour of MSC fishery certification. The position has significant opportunities for independence and teamwork plus collaboration with leading fishery scientists around the globe as part of special project involvement.
At this time, MSC is recruiting one full-time Fishery Assessment Manager. We are looking specifically for candidates with experience in stock assessment, enhanced fisheries, seaweed harvesting, molluscs (bivalves or cephalopods). The variety of fisheries and management challenges, along with the diversity of people involved, make these posts extremely interesting and intellectually stimulating in very unique ways.
