Hi there - 

I am hoping that these job announcements can be sent out the the Woods Hole community as soon as possible.  Is this something that you can do?  Please cc me on the email if you do send out the announcement.  I appreciate it!

Dear Colleagues,

The Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries coastal lobster project currently has three job vacancies that we are trying to fill.  Two of them are seasonal contract positions and one is a regular state position.  We looking for some good recently graduated undergraduates or grad students.  We would greatly appreciate it if you would be willing to send these postings along to any individuals who you think are qualified and if possible put hard copies of these postings on the board in each of your respective departments. 

This position involves a lot of field work including diving, so the applicant must be a certified diver, preferably with a fair amount of experience diving in cold water, low visibility, and conducting underwater research.  There is a website posted below that describes the project the person would be working on.  This is a full time position with benefits funded for about 1 ½ more years unless we receive more funding to extend the research.

These two positions are seasonal fisheries technicians positions that involve working with the coastal lobster project.  The two positions will involve a lot of time on commercial fishing vessels sampling lobsters and bycatch, and working on a ventless trap program designed to sample lobsters at different depths and habitat types.  These techs will also help out on the habitat enhancement project described above as topside dive tenders, so small vessel handling experience would be great.
