Bristol Aquarium seeks Aquarist
Bristol Aquarium has an exciting opportunity for a pro-active individual to join us as an Aquarist.
In the heart of Bristol located on the Harbourside, our Aquarium hosts our largest display of native species themed around a sunken ship. Other displays include an amazing underwater walkthrough tunnel which includes exotic species. Bristol Aquarium also has a large botanical house home to an array of plant species as well as Coral Sea display which is home to a number of species of sharks and tropical fish.
The responsibility of the Aquarist will be varied, challenging, but extremely rewarding. A hands-on approach is required to ensure you achieve the highest standard of animal care and husbandry.
You will be responsible for maintaining and developing displays and exhibits, including our Botanical House Gardens, along with promoting public education and awareness in relation to conservation of biodiversity.
In addition to this you will also maintain clean, tidy and safe standards of all plant rooms; tool rooms, laboratories and quarantine facilities.
The successful candidate will be expected to be very personable and able to communicate well with the visitors, including delivering public talks and design and run education sessions.
This is full time post working on a rotation basis which includes regular weekends and bank holidays.
