Important information for applicants

Guðmundur Ingi Guðbrandsson, Minister of Social Affairs and Labour, has appointed Herdís Gunnarsdóttir as director of the Welfare Quality and Inspection Authority, which took up the post on 1 April 2022.

The Directorate of Fisheries is looking to hire fisheries inspectors for 1-2 full-time positions in the Surveillance Division.

The positions at the School of Education and Science are intended for permanently employed staff in higher education who reduce their work due to scientific work. This summer we plan to learn about researchers in these positions and their projects. Now it is time for Þórhalla Sigurðardóttir, an expert in emergency nursing and an associate professor at the Faculty of Health, Business and Sciences at the University of Akureyri.

The Directorate of Fisheries has put into use a digital application system in collaboration with Ísland.is for fishing permits.
