We're currently recruiting a Post-doc Research Fellow to manage a
Scottish Executive-funded project on the abundance and population
structure of bottlenose dolphins around the Scottish coast. They will
need a PhD in biological science, and at least 3 years experience in
conducting and managing field-based research projects in marine ecology,
ideally involving marine mammals. This should include a proven ability
to work in remote rural areas, and of leading and motivating boat-based
research teams. Experience of the field and analytical techniques
required to conduct photo-identification, acoustic or aerial surveys
would be advantageous.

strong publication record and evidence of effective communication with
the public and other stakeholders are also required.

will be carried out in collaboration with Prof Philip Hammond at the Sea
Mammal Research Unit (http://smub.st-and.ac.uk/) and Dr Ben Wilson at
