MARINE FISH TAGGING PROGRAM INTERNSHIP


The American Littoral Society is a nonprofit, membership-based organization headquartered on Sandy Hook in Highlands, NJ. The American Littoral Society promotes the study and conservation of marine life and habitat, protects the coast from harm, and empowers others to do the same. We are offering summer internship opportunities based out of Sandy Hook National Recreation Area.
 
Marine Fish Tagging Program Internship
Primary responsibilities will include:
- Assist the Tagging Program Director in managing the one of the world’s largest recreational angler fish tagging program.
- Data entry of program tag and recapture events.
- Creation and distribution of recapture letters and rewards.
- Distribution of tag kits and instructional materials to new and existing Society taggers.
- Representing the Tagging Program at outreach and tabling events.
- Accompanying the Tagging Program Director on outreach/tagging events, that may include boat trips at sea.
 
Qualifications: We are seeking an energetic, dedicated, and detail-oriented individual. Current undergraduate college students with marine science, ecology, environmental science or similar background may apply. A working knowledge of the life history and ecology of local marine fish species is desirable, but not necessary. The internship will require the use of personal vehicle and laptop.
 
The internship opportunity is a paid, part time position through the summer and hours are flexible with some evening and weekends required. This is an excellent opportunity to work with a well-established organization that promotes coastal conservation through education, restoration, and advocacy.

The Littoral Society offers compensation based upon experience and education.

Please e-mail your cover letter and resume to Emily McGuckin, emily.mcguckin@littoralsociety.org, for the Marine Fish Tagging Program Internship by Friday, April 14th. No phone calls please. To learn more about the American Littoral Society, visit www.littoralsociety.org
