Veterinary Nurse
Join our vibrant organisation!
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.
We are looking for a
full time Veterinary Nurse that will assist in the delivery of veterinary
services at Marwell Wildlife. Marwell has a well-equipped veterinary hospital
including remote-chemical immobilisation and field anaesthesia equipment,
digital radiography, portable ultrasound, rigid and flexible endoscopy and
laboratory facilities.
This post will focus
principally on supporting the zoo veterinarians and our current vet nurse in
delivering the preventative health care programme, whilst providing day-to-day
care for the animals in the collection. In addition the candidate will facilitate
animal transfers, coordinate student placements and assist with the management
of the veterinary practice at Marwell. We operate to the highest standards of
welfare and the veterinary nurse role will support this.
Applicants must be a
Registered Veterinary Nurse and have a demonstrable interest and commitment to
animal welfare and conservation. Due to the need to drive park vehicles
applicants must hold a full driver’s licence valid for the UK.
If you would like to
join our unique and vibrant organisation and become part of our Marwell Family,
please visit our website, marwell.org.uk for a full candidate brief and to
submit your CV and covering letter.
Closing date: 10th
February 2017
