I am 20 years old and am currently in my second year at the University of Leeds, studying Zoology. I am on track to receive a 2:1 certificate at the end of my study. I would love to have a role at this zoo/ aquarium so that I can gain experience from a workplace setting. I am extremely passionate about zoos and aquariums and am firmly convinced of their significant moral contribution to conservation efforts. However, most of my employment experience comes from working in pubs/ restaurants. I have also spent time doing odd jobs in my community such as gardening and plastering. I am also used to hard labour as worked in the factory for Higgidy Pies so feel I would be suited to many challenging tasks.
