The MSC has recently established a ‘Peer Review College’ to improve the efficiency of this process.
We are now inviting applications from experienced fisheries scientists to act as occasional peer reviewers, initially as part of a 12 month trial.
Candidates should have:
- A university degree in fisheries, marine conservation biology, natural resources, environmental management or other relevant field
- And/or at least 5 years management or research experience in marine conservation biology, natural resources or environmental management applied to fisheries research or management
- Experience of at least one of the following competency areas: fish stock assessments, fish stock biology / ecology, fishing impacts on aquatic ecosystems, fishery management and operations, and/or current knowledge of the country, language and local fishery context (see the application form for further details)
