An exciting opportunity has arisen
at Slimbridge Wetland Centre to join the Presentations Team working primarily
with our mammals, which is a well-established collection of specialist wetland
mammals with potential for development.
The successful candidate will join
a dynamic presentations team with extensive experience among them. We are
looking for someone to become a flexible part of the team caring for our
mammals and deliver daily otter talks and other presentations. The role will
also involve working with our extensive amphibian collection and our unique

about the environment is a must and any experience in public experience would
be welcomed.
