The Metocean division of Gardline Environmental Ltd is seeking a Physical Oceanographer with a proven work history, to join their team based in Great Yarmouth.

This role covers a wide variety of tasks, from project start-up to final report delivery.

Your main responsibilities will be:

• Communicate information with a variety of internal and external departments, suppliers and customers
• Representation of the company at industry events.
• Presentation of data and reports to clients and at conferences

You must be flexible in attitude and skills and able to work both as part of the main survey crew, or independently on a third party vessel.
