Dragon Zoo Careers

Take a look at some of the job descriptions and roles required at Dragon Zoo. Working here is fun but some of the positions are extremely dangerous!

 

Dragon Zoo Security Team Members Required

Dragon Zoo requires experienced security experts specialising in animals. Measures will need to be in place at the Zoo at the specific request of MI5 to ensure the threat from these animals is contained. The security team will need to be able to respond to incidents both in the zoo and those that are reported nationwide for dragon sightings, potential dragon eggs etc. The zoo is fully responsible for ensuring the safety of the United Kingdom and will be the only suitable storage location for any dragons that are discovered. To be able to meet these requirements an experienced team of individuals is essential.

Team members will require experience working with animals of a dangerous nature, they will need to be able to work both autonomously and in a team environment. Team members will also need to go on specialist training to ensure that they are able to assist members of the public both in the zoo and elsewhere, in the event of an unsecured dragon incident.

Dragon care assistant / Vet (2 Posts) Required

The zoo requires two positions to support the existing team of dragon care assistants. Full training will be provided due to unique nature of the animals. Daily activities with the animals will include health checks, excercise sessions, infant dragon zone inductions and feeding. We currently have two species of dragon at the zoo, fire breathing land based dragons and marine dragons, both of which will need to be supported. A wide range of skills will be necessary to face the diverse challenges set caring for such extreme creatures and therefore a good level of experience in roles of a similar nature will be required. Past experience in any of the following fields would be considered essential for the posts; safari/zoo/wildlife reserves, caring for larger animals of a dangerous nature, animal dental experience. Experience in any of the following fields would be favoured but is not essential; deep sea diving/extreme outdoor survivalists/stunt work (working with fire)/extreme sports (sky diving/bungie jumping).
