Another big pat on the back to you for this incredibly useful resource... From: psci-com: on public engagement with science [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Jo Brodie Sent: 04 April 2011 10:47 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [PSCI-COM] ScicommJobs - collection of downloadable science communication job descriptions Morning all As some of you may know, for the last year and a half I've been collecting <http://scicommjobs.posterous.com/pages/2-all-jobs-posted-here-so-far> science communication job vacancy adverts and their accompanying job descriptions. Every three months I collect the newly posted jobs and add them to this list. I've stopped counting them but I think it's over 300. Each item in the list contains a link which will take you to the page (individual blog post) for each job, from which you can download any job descriptions etc. When I hear about new jobs and add them to the blog they're automatically pinged out to a dedicated Twitter feed ( <http://twitter.com/ScicommJobs> @ScicommJobs). Although an imperfect record the blog shows which organisations seem to like employing scicomm folk. I also maintain a <http://brodiesnotes.blogspot.com/2009/07/amrc-member-charities-websites.htm l> companion list of scientific organisations' vacancies pages - at any one time there's bound to be a science communication job lurking among them ;) "Science communication" covers many different kinds of jobs and I hope the collection's variety reflects that, but it is not meant to be exhaustive. My interest in doing this is more long-term than just advertising vacancies. I want to make it a bit easier for people to 'work towards' the skills & experience needed to apply for a more senior job (without having to wait for such a job to become vacant to see what those are), but also to highlight the different sectors employing science communicators. There are also events, awards, courses and miscellaneous things that I think might be of interest. Jo P.S. If you have science communication jobs you'd like to be considered (posting depends on time and my whims) then please send them to <mailto:[log in to unmask]> [log in to unmask] with the job advert in the body and the job description attached (makes life a lot easier!). I'm happy to post no-longer-available jobs too (as long as there's a job description). I've still got a few posted here in March to get through...
