Assistant Biologists

Emu Ltd is an independent aquatic environmental
survey and consultancy company with offices at
Durley near Southampton and analytical and

Emu is staffed by highly skilled scientists in a wide
range of aquatic biological, chemical, geological
and physical disciplines with clients ranging from
renewable energy suppliers, aggregate extractors,
regulatory bodies, oil and gas companies to
aquaculture ventures.

We are currently offering an opportunity for assistant
level biologists to join Emu’s long established and
busy benthic faunal identification laboratory.
The EMU benthic team specialise in the processing of
samples and the identification of infaunal and epifaunal communities in estuarine and marine waters around
the UK and overseas. The EMU labs have been full participants in the National Marine Biological Analytical
Quality Control (NMBAQC) scheme for over 15 years
and have always maintained very high standards in taxonomic ability.

The successful candidate should have or be working
towards a degree in a marine or biological science
discipline. The post requires a self motivated candidate
who can maintain consistency and complete tasks
rapidly and accurately to strict deadlines.
The assistant role will include benthic faunal sample processing, data entry and will provide training in
basic faunal taxonomy. The post will primarily be
laboratory based, however, there may be opportunities
for fieldwork in support of Emu’s ecological survey team.
This post is initially required on a temporary basis but
it may lead to a more permanent position.
