Animal Keeper Ayr, Scotland
Job description
Heads of Ayr Farm Park is a family-run farm and adventure park based in Ayr, Scotland. We have approximately 175,000 visitors per year and offer around 80 species of animals, from farmyard favourites to exotic species and endangered creatures.
We're looking for a Animal Keeper to help our animal department with an immediate start!
This role is full-time over 5 days per week including weekend days on a varied shift rota. You'll be assisting our animal keepers in feeding and caring for a number of large farm, domesticated and exotic animals, birds, and reptiles, along with the upkeep of their enclosures.
The right candidate should:
- Have some work experience in a relevant field
- Be reliable and friendly
- Have a passion for all animals
- Be able to drive, as public transport to and from the park is not the most reliable.
If you meet these requirements and are interested in the role, please send us your CV and cover letter as soon as you can, as we are looking for candidates who can start with us quickly.
