What you'll bring to the team

Ready to step into a wild world of conservation, care and unforgettable animal moments as a Zookeeper at Chessington World of Adventures Resort?

At Chessington, our adventurers don’t just visit a zoo, they enter a living, breathing environment where every habitat is designed to inspire, educate and protect. As a Zookeeper, no two days are ever the same. You’ll take an active role in the day-to-day running of the collection, including delivery of the highest standards of animal husbandry required with species such as Capybara, Asian small-clawed otters, Binturong, Giraffe, Humboldt Penguins and a range of aquatic species found in our very own SEA LIFE Centre.

Duties will include planning, evaluating and executing environmental enrichment for the animals under your care alongside delivering first-class meet and greets and memorable experiences to our Adventurers. You will also be required to use positive reinforcement to train a wide variety of species for husbandry and presentations.

You’ll also be part of a team that creates the most stimulating environment possible – for both animals and guests. Since we’re big on conservation, education and research, you’ll have a big part to play in that too. You will also be keen to support all areas within our zoo, which will in turn benefit your own personal development. You will ensure the health and safety of yourself, colleagues and our guests always as well as develop a personal training programme in conjunction with your Head of Section.

This is a full-time role, working a flexible pattern across 5 days out of 7, including weekends and bank holidays.
