    •   Liaison with IZVG staff in other departments as well as daily contact with the clinical vet team is part of the role.

    •   Management of the aquarium clinicians’ calendars to produce and publish Pre-Visit reports for all AHEF clients prior to a visit, summarising all key AHEFs with associated drug lists.

    •   Training and education where required, (for example but not limited to Fish Health and Husbandry Course, Enrichment course and Reptile Health and Husbandry Course) to include building, updating, delivering and facilitating the courses with occasional travel.

    •   Individual projects that complement existing IZVG tools and management with a focus on providing the best service and advice.

    •   Research, support and assistance as assigned by the clinicians when required.

Assistant Veterinary Pathologist: Aquatic, Zoo and Wildlife Species

 


Assistant Veterinary Pathologist: Aquatic, Zoo and Wildlife Species

 

International Zoo Veterinary Group (IZVG)

 

The role: Working alongside our existing principal veterinary pathologist, who will be your direct line manager, with two histology technicians, and supported by zoological medicine clinical specialists, you will take immediate responsibility for a caseload that comprises significant numbers of marine aquarium fish, non-domestic mammalian (particularly primate), avian, and lower vertebrate species, as well as invertebrates. Diagnostic histopathology will be a major part of your daily work, for IZVG’s own clients and for external clients including veterinary surgeons and referral laboratories. Necropsy examinations are also a frequent and irreplaceable feature of our work, occasionally necessitating travel off-site. A network of external collaborators enables us to source additional diagnostic testing as necessary. Opportunities exist for input into conservation projects in association with field biologists and vets, and to publish and present your work nationally and internationally.
