Chester Zoo is launching a new paid apprenticeships scheme for the very first time. Aimed at inspiring more people to take up a career in conservation, the positions up for grabs include 10 zookeeper and aquarist roles, two horticulturalists and two positions in animal and plant logistics.
The UK’s most visited wildlife charity is inviting anyone from school leavers to those seeking a career change to apply for one of the 14 apprenticeships. A degree or formal qualification is not required as zoo recruitment chiefs look to widen access to full-time employment in zookeeping and other animal and plant focussed roles to everyone.
Applications are open now, with a closing date of Friday, May 20, so don't hang around if you fancy your chances.
