excellent candidates for two positions to support the Marine
Global Earth Observatory (MarineGEO), a growing global
network of partners collaborating to understand how marine
life is responding to environmental change, and the role of
biodiversity in mediating resilience of near-shore marine
ecosystems. The partnership is coordinated by the Tennenbaum
Marine Observatories Network (TMON) based at the Smithsonian
and is unique in its use of standardized measurements and
coordinated experiments, and its long-term focus on
biodiversity and functioning in shallow
waters. MarineGEO/TMON represents a major research
initiative in the science portfolio of the Smithsonian
Institution. The network currently consists of
the Smithsonian’s four Atlantic sites in Maryland
(Smithsonian Environmental Research Center),
Florida (Smithsonian Marine Station), Belize (Carrie Bow
Cay field station), and Panama (STRI Bocas del Toro field
station), and is actively developing additional partner
sites.<br>

The Program Manager assists the Director of TMON
in coordinating management of the international network,
maintains accounting and reporting responsibilities, manages
contractual agreements with national and international
research partners, prepares summaries of research and
program progress and needs, and manages logistical needs,
fund-raising and development opportunities, and
outreach initiatives for the network. The Program
Manager works closely with the Director in developing the
collaborative network of MarineGEO/TMON sites globally,
including coordination of research and training activities,
fellowships and small grants programs, and assistance with
data management. The Program Manager serves as assistant to
the Director.<br>
<br>
Candidates should ideally hold a M.S. degree in
biology, oceanography, or environmental science with a
marine focus. Experience managing large grants, budgets,
and/or research programs is strongly preferred. Because the
project involves a collaborative global partnership, strong
organizational, communication, writing, and people skills
are essential.<br>
<br>
The Program Manager position will be based at the
headquarters of MarineGEO/TMON at the Smithsonian’s National
Museum of Natural History in Washington, DC. This is a
full-time, permanent, trust-fund position with similar
requirements and benefits to a federal position. The
position is open to all candidates eligible to work in the
United States. Review of applications will begin on 30 July
2014 and will continue until the position is filled.<br>

The marine biology research technician provides
technical support for a variety of field and laboratory
tasks in MarineGEO/TMON’s program of marine research. Under
the guidance of the TMON Director, the duties of
the incumbent will include but are not limited to field
sampling of marine organisms, identification of marine
organisms using microscopy and taxonomic literature;
conducting field and laboratory experiments; preparation
and curation of frozen and preserved specimens; deposition
of specimens in museum collections; maintenance and data
retrieval from water quality monitoring
instruments; management, entry, and analysis of data;
and assistance in preparation and publication of reports,
proposals, and manuscripts.<br>
<br>
The position requires a Bachelor’s degree, with
Master’s degree strongly preferred, in Biology, Marine
Science, or related field. The position requires practical
knowledge of biology and taxonomy of marine organisms and
marine research procedures. Ability to operate small to
medium sized boats is strongly preferred. Scuba
certification and scientific diving experience are strongly
preferred, and must be completed soon after acceptance of
the position. The applicant must be competent in computer
data entry, data management, statistical analysis, and
effective writing skills.<br>
<br>
The Research Technician position will be based at
the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center in Edgewater,
MD. This is a full-time, permanent, trust-fund position with
similar requirements and benefits to a federal position. The
position is open to all candidates eligible to work in the
United States. Review of applications will begin on 30 July
2014 and will continue until the position is filled. <br>

Applications for both positions should include (1) a current
Curriculum Vitae; (2) a 1-2 page summary of career goals,
experience, and interests relevant to the
MarineGEO/TMON program; and (3) names and full contact
