Gemma Bamford, Admissions & Membership Manager at the zoo, said: “If you’re interested in a career at the zoo, or are looking to enjoy a flexible role around your current lifestyle, then pop along to our open day for a cuppa and a chat with our teams and we’ll take you through all of the exciting positions we have to offer.
“There’re not many places in the world where can you explore a 128 acre zoo and be surrounded by 20,000 incredible animals every day. Where else can you see giraffes, lions and penguins on your lunch break?!”
Chester Zoo is home to more than 20,000 animals made up from nearly 600 different species. It has also supported field projects in 20 countries which have prevented the extinction of highly threatened species.
And according to TripAdvisor it is England’s second-best zoo.
