Animal Keeper – Bird
Team
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.
An exciting
opportunity has arisen for an Animal Keeper to join our Bird team on a full
time basis. Marwell is looking to expand its already varied bird collection due
to new projects such as the Tropical House and other exciting future plans.
This is a great time to join a forward thinking and progressive team.
Animal Keepers are
responsible for carrying out all aspects of animal care, including husbandry
routines, managerial operations and environmental enrichment, and supporting
veterinary intervention as required. The successful candidate will have a
strong background in the keeping of bird species and will be able to work well
as part of a team. You will have the ability to use your own initiative,
display an interest in and commitment to animal welfare and conservation, and
must possess strong communication skills.
In return we will
offer you support, training and continued professional development, not to
mention a fantastic working environment! You can also expect free entry to the
park and great event discounts.
If you would like to
join our unique and vibrant organisation and become part of our Marwell Family,
