The Joint Programming Initiative Healthy and Productive Seas and Oceans (JPI Oceans) is a pan-European intergovernmental platform that strives to increase efficiency and impact of national investments in marine and maritime research and innovation. JPI Oceans focuses on long-term collaboration between EU Member States, Associated Countries and international partners and adds to the value of national research and innovation investments by aligning national priorities, addressing them with Joint Actions and amplifying impact through Strategic Engagements.
JPI Oceans is involved in several initiatives of the EU Horizon Europe research and innovation programme. In the Sustainable Blue Economy Partnership, JPI Oceans is a partner with responsibilities in communication, outreach, community building, capacity enhancement and ocean literacy. JPI Oceans also leads the Communication Work Package in MMinE-SwEEPER, a European Research and Innovation Action which aims to enhance the maritime safety and environmental protection from munitions-related threats. JPI Oceans further runs its own set of Joint Actions on a range of different topics from sea level rise and Blue Carbon, over ecological aspects of deep-sea mining, to the consequences of light changes and acoustic pollution.
The JPI Oceans secretariat is looking for a communications officer in support of its tasks and activities, with a focus on the abovementioned Horizon Europe initiatives.
