Tenure Track Group Leader Position in Fish Ecophysiology

We are seeking a highly qualified and motivated researcher to lead a research group in fish ecophysiology at the Leibniz-Institut für Gewässerökologie und Binnenfischerei. The successful candidate will be responsible for establishing an independent research program on organismal fish ecophysiology, with a focus on the physiological mechanisms that enable fish to survive, grow, reproduce, and thrive in different habitats.

Your Role
  • Design and conduct experiments in laboratory settings, ponds, lakes, and rivers to investigate physiological responses to environmental change.
  • Use the physiological insights to advance our understanding of fish biology and ecology and to translate mechanistic insights into species distributions or responses to environmental stressors or management.
  • Publish research findings in peer-reviewed journals and present results at scientific conferences.
  • Collaborate with colleagues within IGB and participate in interdisciplinary research projects.
Your Profile
  • Ph.D. in biology, ecology, physiology, or a related field, with a specialization in fish ecophysiology.
  • Proficiency in relevant laboratory techniques, such as respirometry, biochemical assays, and other physiological measurements.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English.
  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a research team.
  • Strong background in experimental design and data analysis.
  • Strong conceptual background in freshwater ecology and fish biology.
  • Excellent publication record in peer-reviewed journals commensurate with career stage.
  • Experience in supervising students or early career researchers is of advantage.
  • Success in competitive funding acquisition commensurate with career stage.
Our Offer

We offer an interesting position with a long-term perspective according to IGB's tenure-track guidelines in a dynamic international scientific environment. The working language is English. We have flat hierarchies, encourage active participation, and provide high individual freedom, enabling scientists to develop their creativity to the best of their abilities.

The position is full-time with an option for temporary or permanent work time reduction. It is based at the Department of Fish Biology, Fisheries and Aquaculture in Berlin. Salary is paid according to the German salary scheme for the public sector (TVöD Bund E14). We foster career development by providing qualification and training opportunities. Given our commitment to diversity, we welcome all applications, regardless of gender and gender identity, origin, nationality, religion, belief, health, and physical disabilities, age, or sexual orientation.
