Job ID: R0009106
Country: United Kingdom Location: Portchester Closing date: Friday Feb 05 2021 Job DescriptionThe role Fugro are recruiting for a Hydrographic Surveyor to join our world-leading geophysical survey department based at our waterfront office in Portchester on the UK’s south coast. As a Hydrographic Surveyor, you will be responsible for processing hydrographic data on a wide variety of projects, working with teams in the field and Project Surveyors to deliver industry-leading data to our clients. This is an excellent opportunity for you to gain exposure to a variety of projects working in a range of markets (including renewables, UXO, pipeline inspection) and processing different hydrographic data types. The role will combine time based at our Portchester office and offshore on Fugro vessels. Therefore, you will get the opportunity to experience both the onshore and offshore environment, working at the forefront of marine geophysical science. This job is for you if:
Who you’ll be working with: On a daily basis, you will be working closely with the project team. This includes the Project Manager, vessel team, other surveyors and our clients. You will report to a Project Surveyor. Here’s what a typical week would be like:
Who we’re looking for: We are interested to hear from you regardless of your level of work experience in the industry. Essential
What we’ll offer you: Benefits for this role include a competitive salary accompanied by an attractive package including contributory pension scheme, life assurance, 24 days annual leave and private medical insurance. About us: Fugro are the world’s leading, independent provider of geo-intelligence and asset integrity solutions for large constructions, infrastructure and natural resources. We provide the technical data and information required to design, construct and maintain large structures and infrastructure in a safe, reliable and efficient manner. Working around the globe, predominantly in energy and infrastructure markets, we employ approximately 9,500 employees in around 61 countries. #LI-LS1 Disclaimer for recruitment agencies: Fugro does not accept any unsolicited applications from recruitment agencies. Acquisition to Fugro Recruitment or any Fugro employee is not appreciated.

Stagiares / Scholarships PhD Postgraduate Research Opportunity Ref: P885 Project Title: Improving fishing survey indices though the use of spatiotemporal models Funding: This Cullen Scholarship (Grant-Aid Agreement No. CS/20/007) is carried out with the support of the Marine Institute and funded under the Marine Research Programme 2014-2020 by the Irish Government. Description: The Marine Institute Ireland conduct many scientific trawl and acoustic surveys. Indices of abundance derived from these surveys form key components of stock assessments used to provide sustainable management advice. The importance of detailed spatial considerations in index estimation has arisen relatively recently; by accounting for spatial variation in abundance, the residual variability in spatial models is reduced and index precision enhanced. Moreover, spatial modelling of survey indices enhances understanding of the distributional dynamics of species. Spatial and spatiotemporal models also allow for integration of multiple surveys and may also be less susceptible to gaps in survey coverage. Such possibilities could prove very useful where unavoidable gaps in survey coverage occur (e.g., due to weather, technical difficulties or Covid-19). Broadly, understanding how to appropriately apply spatiotemporal models to improve indices is a key scientific question to be addressed in this Cullen PhD Scholarship. State-of-the-art in spatiotemporal modelling of species distributions has taken a leap forward in the last five years with the development of models like VAST (Vector Autoregressive SpatioTemporal) model, which is an advanced framework for investigating how species and community distributions change in space and time. Spatial distributions of species density can evolve over time in a fully spatiotemporal framework. Such flexibility can be an improvement on static spatial distributions. Spatial and spatiotemporal methods require more extensive investigation to understand their performance from a suite of theoretical and applied perspectives. Testing must include appraisals of how accuracy and precision of estimated indices change under varying levels of model complexity from simple non-spatial models to multivariate spatiotemporal models incorporating covariates and multiple species. This scholarship will advance our understanding of spatiotemporal modelling of fisheries survey data via addressing: • Influence of gaps in survey coverage. • Influence of environmental covariates on univariate (single species) spatiotemporal models and derived indices. • Multivariate spatiotemporal modelling for survey index standardisation (modelling multiple ages or the community assemblage). • Spatiotemporal modelling and survey design. Thesis chapters will be designed around these themes. Benefits to the student • Collaboration with a dynamic group of experts in fisheries at the MI, GMIT and networks nationally and internationally (e.g., ICES). These will ensure that the knowledge and skills acquired are highly relevant to current and future needs in advice for fisheries management. • In-depth training in statistical modelling and inference with application to index estimation and stock assessment, which are increasingly sought-after skillsets. • Training in high-level programming (C++, R) • Experience of the integral connections between stakeholders, science and advice. Requirements/Qualifications: An Honours Degree (minimum 2.2, but 2.1 or higher is desirable) in the fields of ecology or fisheries science (with demonstrated significant statistical component), statistics, mathematics or computing (with demonstrated significant ecological component) at the commencement date of the project. A Master's degree in a relevant area will be an advantage, particularly spatial modelling, survey design, population dynamics or stock assessment. Demonstrated experience in scientific programming (R, C++, other) will be an advantage as well as evidence of contributions to scientific publications. Project Duration: 48 months Conditions: • €16,000 Stipend per annum. • Postgraduate fees for EU students will be covered by the project. • In addition, any necessary travel and material costs incurred during the project will be covered. • The student will be based at GMIT and will also have access to facilities at GMIT and the Marine Institute headquarters in Galway. Please Note: Candidates from outside the EU are eligible to apply but may be expected to provide evidence of sources of additional funds to cover excesses associated with Non-EU fees. If either English or Irish is not the applicant's first language, a certificate of language ability in either language is required. IELTS level 6.0 or equivalent is mandatory for those presenting with English as a foreign language.
