Aquaculture Senior Consultant

Tööülesanded

A position within AquaBioTech Group has arisen for a suitably qualified person to work on a variety
of projects within the Group’s diverse portfolio. The post advertised is for the position of Senior
Aquaculture Consultant, ideally, but not essential, with knowledge of recirculation aquaculture
system (RAS) technologies.
The responsibilities of the selected candidate are to be divided into three distinct areas of work,
although briefly described as undertaking the development and management of various projects
and assignments that are contracted to AquaBioTech Group.
• The primary task is to provide assistance in the undertaking of a range of consultancy
assignments (project planning, technical and financial feasibility studies, risk assessments, due
diligence reviews, market research intelligence, as well as technical and operational support)
for a variety of global aquaculture projects. Such projects will require a sound knowledge and
understanding of production systems, economies and constrains for a range of economically
important food production species such as fish, shrimp and shellfish. Additional systems
knowledge on hatcheries, nurseries, growout projects in cages, ponds and recirculation
aquaculture systems (RAS) will be essential. It would be desirable for the candidate to have
operational and practical experience for provision of training and commissioning activities for
both remote and on-site working.
• The secondary task is to assist our design and engineering teams with the required biological
/ technical input relating to bio-planning, stocking, growth-curves and feeding rates with
regards to research facilities, broodstock, hatchery, nursery and grow-out recirculation
aquaculture systems. Assist the engineering and architectural teams with the preparation of
bill of quantities for projects.

The last task area, the post holder will be expected to contribute to the tendering process
associated with new business development and opportunities. Tendering experience and
familiarity with engagement with non-governmental organisations such as World Bank, FAO etc., would be desirable. A sound knowledge of project management, both in terms of fiscal
and personnel management, is an essential criterion. Reporting directly to the Business
Development Director, the position is demanding requiring a person who is highly motivated
and self-organised. The selected person must be prepared to work to very tight deadlines in
isolated and multi-functional projects and in conjunction with a team of international staff based
at our head-office based in Malta.
The post holder will be expected to travel internationally and may be expected to be on site in situ
with the client for prolonged periods of time. They will also have the opportunity to build and lead
a small dynamic team of consultants as the company grows.

Nõuded kandidaadile

The post holder will have either minimum of five (5) years’ experience and a Ph.D. in a relevant
scientific field such as Aquaculture, Fisheries, Oceanography or the equivalent of 10-15 years
aquaculture related consultancy experience. Candidates with at least an MSc in one of the above
