Job title Postdoctoral Researcher in Fish Welfare in Aquaculture. Company Fish Etho Group. Description of the job The Fish Etho Group is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to join the team for a two-year fixed-term contract. The successful candidate will perform research in aquaculture and fish ethology, within the remit of the European Partnership for Animal Health and Welfare. The role involves developing indicators for negative affective states in fish and evaluating environmental enrichment strategies to promote positive welfare in sustainable aquaculture systems. The Fish Etho Group is a non-profit association bridging the gaps between science and the stakeholders in the aquaculture sector: producers, certifiers, retailers, NGOs, policy makers and consumers. The organisation's goal is to study and improve the welfare of farmed fishes and other aquatic animals by applying ethological scientific knowledge into best practices in fish farming and...

Job title PhD Scholarship in PFAS Effects on Blue Mussels.  Company DTU Aqua - National Institute of Aquatic Resources, Technical University of Denmark. Description of the job DTU Aqua is offering a PhD position to study the effects of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on blue mussels. Chemical pollution is a major stressor to marine ecosystems and can impair the development and long-term survival of benthic invertebrates, such as mussels. However, it is unclear how chemicals of global concern, such as PFAS, affect several key processes during their larval life beyond early development. The larvae of mussels are the most sensitive life stage and the bottleneck for population growth and survival. Still, there is a lack of understanding of how susceptibility to pollutants differs between larval stages. The aim of this PhD is to determine development stage-specific sensitivities to PFAS throughout the entire pelagic phase of mussels and...

Job title Postdoc on Modelling Global Marine Phytoplankton-Virus Interactions.  Company University of Amsterdam, Institute for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Dynamics (IBED), Department of Freshwater and Marine Ecology. Description of the job The Department of Freshwater and Marine Ecology at the University of Amsterdam is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join the PHYVIR project, aimed at elucidating marine phytoplankton-virus interactions from local to global scales. The PHYVIR Project: One of the major challenges in oceanography is how to capture biological processes in mathematical models used for climate predictions. Despite their minute size, marine phytoplankton are vital for marine ecosystem productivity and play a key role in global carbon and nutrient cycling. However, like all life on Earth, phytoplankton are susceptible to viral infections. Viral-induced lysis of phytoplankton cells redirects the flow of energy and elements,...

Interviews in the blue economy differ significantly from standard recruitment processes. As highlighted in The EU Blue Economy Report 2024 , the sector is characterised by high levels of regulation, technical specialisation, internationalisation and increasing pressure to integrate sustainability and innovation into daily operations. Recruiters therefore assess candidates not only on experience, but on sector awareness, regulatory...
Video presentations are no longer a novelty in recruitment processes — they are becoming a standard tool in sectors where digital skills, communication clarity and motivation matter. In blue economy roles, where projects are often international, multidisciplinary and mission-driven, video formats allow recruiters to assess candidates beyond the traditional CV. As highlighted by LinkedIn’s Future of Recruiting reports, video-based...
Protecting the ocean often means working at the crossroads of science, leadership, and difficult decision-making. In the Blue Economy, change doesn’t happen in isolation — it requires persistence, collaboration, and the courage to challenge established systems. In this edition of our interview series, we’re speaking with Carlos Mallo Molina — environmental activist, marine conservation leader, founder of Innoceana , and Goldman...
