[Coral-List] Fwd: JOB OPPORTUNITY: Oceanographer, ZP-1360-4, NESDIS, Satellite Applications and Research (STAR)

[Mark Eakin - NOAA Federal]

Dear Coral Community,

As many of you are aware, I will be retiring from Federal service at the end of this year. NOAA/NESDIS/STAR is seeking someone with expertise in corals, climate change, oceanography, and/or remote sensing/satellite monitoring to fill the position as Coral Reef Watch Coordinator and Lead Scientist for Coral Reefs in STAR. 

The wheels of Federal hiring turn very slowly. STAR has two options for filling this position. The first is the attached announcement for an Oceanographer position in STAR. This announcement is a general hiring opportunity for a scientific lead in ocean remote sensing. If STAR finds the candidate they are seeking for the Coral Reef Watch position through this opportunity, they will not have to issue a more targeted hiring action for Coral Reef Watch later.

If you or someone you know would like to lead the next exciting phase of Coral Reef Watch’s program, please apply through this job opportunity.

Stay well,
Mark
