Description: Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute President/CEO The Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) is currently recruiting for the President/CEO position. Founded in 1987 by the late David Packard, MBARI is dedicated to merging science, engineering, and marine operations for the purpose of developing state-of-the-art instruments, methods, and systems for advancing scientific research in the ocean.

Located in Moss Landing, California, the heart of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, MBARI offers ready access to the open ocean and deep-sea, and embodies a balanced emphasis on science and engineering. Ongoing research programs range across autonomous and remotely operated underwater vehicle systems, control technologies, ocean biogeochemistry, geology, biology, oceanographic instrumentation development, bioacoustics, digital video annotation, and information management. MBARI hosts approximately 200 employees, with shore facilities that include state-of-the-art science and engineering laboratories, manufacturing and electrical fabrication shops, and dock facilities. Our operations division supports state-of-the art sea-going assets, including the R/V David Packard (arriving December 2023), R/V Rachel Carson, R/V Paragon, MARS deep-sea cabled observatory, and a fleet of remotely operated and autonomous systems.

Instills a strong culture of trust, high performance, and organizational excellence. Maintains the Institute's founding emphasis on fostering peer relationships between scientists and engineers to advance technological innovations in connection with MBARI's research and development programs. Maintains focus on the deep waters of the world with Monterey Bay and contiguous waters of the California Current as the Institute's principal laboratory. Provides advice and leadership to the larger oceanographic and scientific community. Engages in external programs and collaborations to share and advance MBARI technology, science, and information to benefit ocean science.
