Salary: £30,000- £40,000 commensurate with skills and experience
Looking for a career in maritime archaeology in a growing company with lots of opportunities? Then we would like to hear from you.
MSDS Marine have grown steadily since they were first established in 2011 and are now a market leader in maritime archaeology in the UK. MSDS currently have a large volume of work and are involved in many high-profile offshore development projects. As a result, we are looking to expand our team by recruiting an experienced, enthusiastic and self-motivated marine geophysicist.

We understand that core skills are transferable, and we would be able to support a transition and your development.
You will be an experienced heritage or geophysics professional, educated to at least degree level, with a proven track record in geophysical work. You will work closely with other team members on existing work as well as identifying and following opportunities for future work. We are looking for someone who wants to help shape our future growth and has ideas to the future direction they believe we should take.
The role will require you to undertake a range of activities, primarily relating to marine geophysics, from research and GIS analysis, to data processing and interpretation to report writing and provision of advice to clients. A clear and robust understanding of marine heritage in UK waters and the legislation, policy and curatorial advice which govern this is desirable. MSDS Marine prides itself on good client relationships borne from a strong understanding of our client’s requirements and wishes, and as such the role requires excellent communication and interpersonal skills. Creative thinking and the ability to apply this in different areas, from the development of complex survey strategies to the inception of new projects, would also be highly desirable.
