So You Want To Work In A Zoo? - Jobs You Might Not Expect In A Zoo | Zoo And Conservation Careers Podcast

A zoo cannot run without a lot of work behind the scenes, in this episode, we're going to hear from people with jobs at the zoo you may not have expected.

Sarah Lavin, is our zoological registrar, she coordinates local, national and international animals moves between our zoos and other zoos around the world. This is a truly special job as there is no way you could run a zoo without animals moves.

Dr. Holly Farmer, is the Trust's Research Manager, she manages the students, lecturers and research that is an essential part of zoo day to day business. If we didn't do research or education we wouldn't have a zoo licence.

Kerry Willis, is one of our talented graphic designers, within the Trust's wider creative team. All of those pretty animal ID's, posters, leaflets and guidebooks need to look good so you will interact with, or, buy them so we can continue to operate and ultimately help halt species decline.
