Blue-jobs Longyearbyen, Norway
Job title PhD Position in Continental Slope Dynamics. Company The University Centre in Svalbard (UNIS), Arctic Geophysics Department. Description of the job The Arctic Geophysics department at UNIS offers a PhD position affiliated with the national research program Arctic Ocean 2050. The project will investigate the dynamical processes governing shelf–slope–basin coupling in the Arctic Ocean, focusing on eddies and their role in cross-slope transport to better characterize lateral fluxes of physical and biological properties. In the Arctic Ocean, exchanges of heat, salt, nutrients and organisms across ridges and between shelves and deep basins are driven by mesoscale eddies that link the warm Atlantic layer with colder shelf waters and shape the deep basins and Arctic halocline. However, mechanisms governing the eddy-driven cross-slope exchange remain poorly quantified. Mechanisms controlling water mass transformation and dense-water formation on the...

Job title PhD Position in Arctic Pelagic Ecology. Company The University Centre in Svalbard (UNIS), Arctic Biology Department. Description of the job The department for Arctic Biology at UNIS has a vacant PhD position in Arctic pelagic ecology, affiliated with the national research program Arctic Ocean 2050. UNIS, located in Longyearbyen at 78°N, is the world's northernmost institution for higher education, specializing in Arctic studies and using the environment as a natural laboratory for research and education. The successful applicant will work with zooplankton data from the High Arctic to address knowledge gaps in life history strategies, phenology and the distribution of key zooplankton species in the Arctic Ocean. The work will contribute to improving estimates of pelagic secondary production in the central Arctic Ocean and advancing the understanding of the role of key zooplankton species in the biological carbon pump. The PhD candidate will work...

Job title PhD Position in Arctic Water Quality Change as a Consequence of Permafrost Thaw. Company The University Centre in Svalbard (UNIS), Arctic Geology Department. Description of the job The University Centre in Svalbard (UNIS), located in Longyearbyen at 78°N, the world's northernmost institution for higher education, offers a PhD position investigating how permafrost thaw in shale-rich Arctic regions affects surface water quality, with a focus on Svalbard as a natural laboratory. As the active layer deepens due to climate warming, previously frozen pyrite-rich shales are exposed to oxidation. This process releases sulphuric acid, nutrients (e.g., ammonium and nitrate), trace metals (especially manganese and iron), mercury, and other solutes into surface waters. Admission to the doctoral program at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) is a condition for the employment. The contract is four years including a year of required duties,...

Job title PhD in Marine Technology – Response Estimation and Wave Prediction for Offshore Wind Farm Installation and Operations. Company Department of Marine Technology, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). Description of the job The Department of Marine Technology at NTNU offers a 3-year PhD position focused on response estimation based on remote distributed sensing of the wave field in an offshore wind park, in combination with metocean forecasting data. Cost- and risk-optimal installation and operation of offshore wind farms depend on accurate forecasts and predictions of environmental conditions and response of vessel and auxiliary systems. Improved sea-state and wave prediction can lead to real-time solutions for prediction of motion responses and wave loads during installation tasks such as turbine/blade installation as well as mooring and cable installation. The research task will further investigate exploitation of such methods for...

International Women’s Day and International Day of Women and Girls in Science   often triggers a familiar conversation: how do we get more women into blue economy careers? In 2026, the sharper question is different: how do we make sure they can stay? Because the blue economy’s retention problem isn’t just a pipeline issue. It’s a job-design issue . When work is structured around long rotations, irregular shifts, remote...
From June 2026, pay transparency will become a legal obligation across the European Union. With the application of the EU Pay Transparency Directive , employers will face new requirements on how salaries are defined, communicated and reported, while workers and job candidates will gain stronger rights to understand and challenge pay differences. For the blue economy, where teams are often international and recruitment highly competitive,...
Blue biotechnology is moving from a “promising niche” to an enabling pillar of the blue economy—because it converts aquatic biodiversity and biomass into high-value products and services while supporting Europe’s climate, resilience, and competitiveness objectives. At its core, blue biotechnology applies science and technology to living aquatic organisms —including microalgae, bacteria, fungi, algae and marine invertebrates—to...
