Sefton Council’s Green Sefton Service is recruiting for staff to take care of our bird and small animal collection at Botanic Gardens, Southport.

Green Sefton is an exciting service which manages our special coast, parks and greenspaces: from our beautiful and internationally recognised coastline which supports some of the rarest flora and fauna in the country, to coastal habitats which are rarer than rainforest, through to our historic parks and gardens, 160 other greenspaces, and our sport and recreation facilities.

We are looking for an applicant who clearly loves working with and caring for birds and animals. You will be able to demonstrate knowledge and experience of working in a similar setting and have suitable qualifications in animal care.

An excellent communicator, you will be an enthusiastic ambassador for the Service and keen to inform visitors to the Botanic Gardens about the collection and related topics.

Applicants should be capable of undertaking a range of practical tasks such as daily cleaning and general maintenance of the facility. You will also be expected to deal with incidents and situations that may arise, such attending to sick animals and birds.
