SEASONAL KEEPER
Manor Wildlife Park
has a vacancy for an ambitious keeper to join their dedicated team in an
exciting and rapidly developing collection, working on all sections of the zoo.
This is a full time position working 5 days out of 7 on a rotational basis. The
position is seasonal running from November 2016 through to July 2017.
The ideal applicant
will have experience in a recognised zoological collection. Good communication
skills are essential as you will be expected to deliver a variety of keeper
talks and engage with visitors on a daily basis. Applicants would have ideally been
awarded the DMZAA or equivalent but relevant experience will be taken in to
consideration. A firearms licence is desirable but again not essential and you
will require a clean UK driver’s license.
The responsibilities
of this role will include cleaning, feeding and the provision of general care
for the animals and their exhibits, as well as ‘natural’ enrichment items and
enclosure furnishings. You will be working
as part of a team and on your own as required.
Please send your CV
and covering letter to Gemma Thomas, Manor Wildlife Park, Manor House, St.
Florence, Tenby, Pembrokeshire. SA70 8RJ. Or alternatively apply via email to
gemma@manorwildlifepark.co.uk
The closing date for
applications will be 14th October 2016.
