Post your Jobs with us.

When opportunity is shared fairly; performance improves, teams get stronger, cultures get healthier, decisions get wiser, and planet earth will have more diverse champions.

We have launched the WOS Jobs Board that connects global organisations across marine science, conservation, and the blue economy with one of the most engaged female communities in the industry.

We built it for one purpose: to help organisations that are serious about gender equity in ocean science find the people they need, and to ensure that women at every career stage from undergraduates to senior scientists know their opportunities.

PAID ROLES ONLY. We do not accept listings for unpaid internships, unpaid work experience, or voluntary positions.

THE WOS COMMUNITY

Global

Members across every continent working in ocean science and conservation

All levels

Undergrads to senior scientists, technicians to policy leads

Targeted

Women actively pursuing careers in the ocean sector

WHY THE WOS JOBS BOARD?

Equality drives better science, safer fieldwork, and stronger conservation outcomes.

Women make up over 50% of marine science graduates, yet remain significantly underrepresented at mid to senior and leadership levels. If your organisation is serious about fixing this ‘leaky pipeline’, this is where you find the right people.

The WOS Jobs Board is part of our community membership and will sit alongside our mentorship, training resources, and professional development tools.

Posting here places your roles in front of a community of women who are actively invested in building careers in ocean science.

A healthier, more equitable sector means a larger, stronger talent pipeline for everyone

Targeted reach

Your listing sits in front of a targeted community of women actively pursuing ocean science and conservation careers, it can be seen globally, and is not buried in a general job site competing with thousands of unrelated roles

Every level, every role

Our members span the full career spectrum, at every level and every corner of the ocean sector; Research and Science, Conservation and Restoration, Policy and Management, Commercial and Consulting.

Signal your values, fulfil your commitments

Posting with WOS tells candidates, and the wider sector, that your organisation is genuinely committed to their own EDI commitments, as well as supporting progress for the UN’s SDG 5 (Gender Equality) development goals.

Support the mission

Your advertising fee goes directly into funding WOS programmes, including Safe Ocean, Elevate Ocean and Empower Ocean.
