Conservation, of some of the rarest species on the planet, working closely with partners and communities to support conservation interventions nationally and internationally
    Non-invasive research, to describe and document new species, behaviours and to develop tools to improve monitoring of species in the wild
  • Education, to inspire and inform our visitors about subjects such as biodiversity, the ecological emergency and climate crisis

Overall purpose of the job:

To provide comprehensive support to the Curator of Herpetology and the curatorial team at Manchester Museum. This role involves assisting in the management, care, welfare and interpretation of the live herpetological collection.

What you will get in return:

  • Fantastic market leading Pension scheme
  • Excellent employee health and wellbeing services including an Employee Assistance Programme

  • Additional paid closure over the Christmas period
  • Local and national discounts at a range of major retailers
