Hi all!

Please spread this job posting to anyone who may be interested! See below:

Title: Director
Organization: Cape Eleuthera Institute <http://ceibahamas.org/>
Location: Eleuthera, The Bahamas
Type: Full Time
Posted: Jan 18, 2018
Open: Until filled

The Cape Eleuthera Institute <http://ceibahamas.org> is seeking a 
*Director *to lead this established research station with numerous 
ongoing projects and a team of research staff, interns and graduate 
students. The institute, founded in 2006, is situated on Cape Eleuthera, 
Eleuthera, The Bahamas and prides itself in reinventing the paradigm of 
how science gets funded, executed and communicated. Over the last decade 
the institute has expanded its portfolio of marine ecology and 
conservation related research to include every major marine ecosystem in 
the greater Caribbean region, including coastal, coral reef, pelagic, 
and deep ocean habitats.

This position would suit either an established scientist or an 
experienced research manager, who is excited to lead, support and mentor 
a team of young scientists. The ideal candidate should be enthusiastic 
about working at a non-traditional academic institution that believes in 
integrating education at every level into primary research. Suitable 
candidates must have a diverse and entrepreneurial approach to funding 
science and education and experience fundraising in diverse arenas 
including traditional ‘hard money’ grants and ‘soft money’ from private 
donors.

The ideal candidate is well-organized, a self-starter who takes 
initiative, has a passion for environmental conservation and a love of 
teaching students of all ages. They must be willing to live and work 
closely with the local community and wider organisation including The 
Island School <http://islandschool.org>, The Centre for Sustainable 
Development <http://csdbahamas.org>, the Deep CreekMiddle School 
<http://dcmsbahamas.org>, and our Educational Programs and Outreach 
Divisions. This position goes beyond the traditional 9-5 role and we are 
looking for an invested candidate who is committed to a full time, 
on-site position that requires dedication to our organisational 
philosophy, our community and its people. Preference will be given to 
suitably qualified Bahamians who are strongly encouraged to apply.

Job open until filled.

Best,
