JOBS BOARD
Advertise with us.
Reach the women doing the work.
The WOS Jobs Board connects organisations across marine science, conservation, research, and the blue economy with one of the most engaged communities of women in the ocean sector.
PAID ROLES ONLY. We do not accept listings for unpaid internships, unpaid work experience, or voluntary positions. We believe scientists should be paid for the work they do.

THE WOS COMMUNITY
Global
Members across every continent working in ocean science
All levels
Undergrads to senior scientists, technicians to policy leads
Targeted
Women actively pursuing careers in the ocean sector
WHY THE WOS JOBS BOARD
Your roles, seen by the right people
Women make up the majority of marine science graduates, yet remain significantly underrepresented at senior and leadership levels. If your organisation is serious about fixing this ‘leaky pipeline’, this is where you start.
Unlike general science jobs boards, every person browsing the WOS Jobs Board is a woman who has actively sought out a community built for her career in ocean science.
“Roles can be based anywhere in the world. We actively welcome international advertisers.”
Targeted reach
Your listing sits in front of a self-selecting community of women actively pursuing ocean science careers — not buried in a general feed competing with thousands of unrelated roles
Every level, every role
Field technicians, PhD studentships, postdocs, research leads, policy roles, marine tech, conservation — our members span the full career spectrum and every corner of the ocean sector.
Signal your values
Advertising on the WOS Jobs Board tells candidates — and the wider sector — that your organisation is serious about recruiting and retaining women in science. An active demonstration, not a statement.
Support the mission
Your advertising fee directly funds WOS programmes — including Safe Ocean, Elevate Ocean and Empower Ocean — that improve conditions across the sector you recruit from. Better conditions mean a larger talent pipeline.
