Summary

I would like to welcome this opportunity to express my genuine interest in attaining some full-time work in my field of choice. I seek to embrace working for Animals and their natural habitat by putting my heart and soul into serving this noble cause.


I am an organized and dedicated worker, successful at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude and ready to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals.


I seek this position primarily for my innate passion for Australian Wildlife and to start engaging further on some field work as I finish my Certificate III in Animal Care Services through TAFE NSW later this year. I will also be finishing my Fauna Spotter Catcher Fundamentals course mid year through SSSAFE.

I would be very grateful for an opportunity to introduce myself in person as I firmly and humbly believe to be the right candidate for this position so I dearly appreciate your consideration and attention on my CV.
