As an action oriented conservation charity, Marwell
Wildlife’s desire is to connect people with nature. Through enthusing people
about the wonders of the natural world we’re certain they’ll share our passion
to conserve it. Our success relies on two key things. The impression we create
through our 140 acre zoological park, Marwell Zoo, with its wide array of
exotic and endangered species and the family of talented people we employ who
share our passion and bring our vision to life.
A full time opportunity has arisen to join our Animal
Management Team as an Animal Team Leader of our Carnivores section.
We have exciting plans for our collection and exhibits,
offering great opportunities for creative project and team work. This role is responsible for coordinating
& supervising daily operations of the team, ensuring that all aspects of
animal care are carried out to a high standard. This will include husbandry
routines, animal nutrition, training, enrichment and assisting with veterinary
intervention as required.
The successful candidate will have extensive, specialist
taxonomic knowledge and wide-ranging experience of the management of Carnivore
species with a minimum Level 3 (ANC / DMZAA) or equivalent qualification in

delivered through a great team of highly motivated people. We’ll provide a
generous package and the opportunity to further develop your professional
skills and abilities, to have a big say in future plans and of course, a
fantastic working environment!
