Additionally support, where relevant, research planning for the organisation by providing accurate records of current research activities.
Effectively monitor organisation wide scientific outputs (e.g. peer-reviewed publications, presentations) for a variety of organisational reporting purposes.
Support with general research and student enquiries through the management of the research inbox and working with relevant staff across the organisation to fulfil science related requests as required.
Where agreed, contribute to the zoo’s scientific credibility and dissemination by engaging in collaborative research projects, facilitate access to the zoo for research purposes and coordinate logistics or supporting in the delivery of science training opportunities such as delivering lectures to support the Conservation Training Academy.
